Signs of Stillness Out of Meaningless Things
Sinais de serenidade por coisas sem sentido
According to the perpetual lunar calendar: ‘When sparks catch a pot of water, it signifies wind. When the hills echo loudly and the sea generates great noise, it signifies tempestuous winds and storms at sea. When dense fog forms at dawn, it signals two days’ serenity.’ Let’s wait and see. (SA)
