Seeing Vionika, she was feeling the same way, she felt that there were two selves living in her body, what an incredible thing it was. But the thing is so incredible, it haunts Vionica in Paris every day, making her sad and making her grow up.
I finally understand that when one feels the body is unfamiliar, or when one feels two selves, this is probably the manifestation of the soul. From this, I thought that someone tried every possible way to observe the soul with instruments, electronic cameras, atomic scales, X-rays, infrared rays... What a stupid act. How can the soul be captured by a machine?
As long as life has not ceased, the soul will remain in us for a long time, hidden somewhere deep inside, watching silently. If someone captures it for the sake of showing it to the outside world, it will be in vain. The soul is a shy and lonely existence, and it will disappear without a trace when it encounters an investigation.
So how can we meet our own soul? Is there anything other than being alone in a cramped bathroom? And singing, Kislowski told us.
Whenever Vionika in Krakow sings, Vionika in Paris is always sad. Through singing, she in Poland gets the comfort of life, and through singing, she in Paris meets another self and her soul.
Yes, it is because of this song that we can believe that art can take us elsewhere, give us the possibility of another existence, meet oneself with another. It's a wonderful process, and even sometimes, it's better than the meeting of man and woman, the meeting of sperm and egg. Milan Kundera wrote a poet, and the name of the novel written is also called "Life Elsewhere". In the story, it is poetry that makes a person feel another kind of existence.
Childhood experiences are gone, and since that first encounter, I can't remember how many times I have met my soul. Sometimes it feels like it's gone, but soon, after experiencing loneliness, we will meet again.
