“With every stitch, I become art: beautifully broken, but still standing.”
-Debra Pry
Ever since I got back from my vacation trip, I have been spending most of my days reading books for college, watching series, writing my second book and playing some songs on the guitar.
I enjoy playing different songs on the guitar, but there is one song in particular I never get bored of playing. The song is Titanium by David Guetta and Sia. I remember playing that song on my guitar for so long the other night that my fingers actually started bleeding.
A question remains concerning this song: Why did the singers choose titanium as a chemical element to show that they are still standing?
Titanium is a metal with the following characteristics: it can resist corrosion, has a high elasticity and tenacity in low temperatures, as well as high strength which its use in the manufacturing of plane engines.
The natural human body does contain titanium, but we can create our own titanium; as a matter of fact, we can create our own elasticity in front of adversity, our own strength when we hit rock-bottom, our own heat to survive low temperatures.
The human can only take so much; scientifically, we can only take 45 Dels (Units) of pain, and yet, when mothers give birth to babies, they endure 57 Dels of pain, being the equivalent of 20 bones cracking at the same time.
This is already one way to prove that we have a special power inside of us, maybe even stronger than titanium. All we have to do is understand how to best exploit it.
Fall down. Learn from your mistakes. Get back up. Try again. Succeed. Otherwise, what is the purpose of even being born with that special titanium inside of you?
