I have always loved that word. xx

Chris Rea entitled a track thus as a tribute to Airton Senna - Chris being an F1 fan.

"Saudade, Saudade,
Saudade, Saudade
Nothing lasts forever
But some things end too soon
Now those fields of fascination
Are just dull and empty rooms
But oh, that luck what did it show
Close the book,
Now we will never know
Saudade, Saudade."

Let alone the lyrics, the music just... says it all... thank you... it is beautiful.

It can and it is. But some things are just not meant to be...

This is a beautiful picture

I think , in the Life_style , many of us have longings for things that are too dangerous...


A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing. George Bernard Shaw

Such a beautiful portrait and it's so hard to describe the emotions it evokes.

I am glad you like it. I thought too it is capturing the emotion of the word Saudade perfectly.

Only the time will tell, BDD.
Right now it seems all too much to bear, both the past and the future.
Anyway, show must go on. I cant stop breathing no matter how tough sometimes is.

"Saudade" comes from Latin "solitudine"


ExNameForUse replies on 5/13/2023 8:14 am:
It has a specific meaning, very difficult to put in one word in any other language...
