Ares /ˈɛəriːz/ (Ancient Greek: Ἄρης [árɛːs], literally meaning "battle") is the Greek god of war. He is one of the Twelve Olympians, and the son of Zeus and Hera. In Greek literature, he often represents the physical or violent and untamed aspect of war, in contrast to his sister the armored Athena, whose functions as a goddess of intelligence include military strategy and generalship.
The Greeks were ambivalent toward Ares: although he embodied the physical valor necessary for success in war, he was a dangerous force, "overwhelming, insatiable in battle, destructive, and man-slaughtering." His sons Fear (Phobos) and Terror (Deimos) and his lover, or sister, Discord (Enyo) accompanied him on his war chariot. In the Iliad, his father Zeus tells him that he is the god most hateful to him. An association with Ares endows places and objects with a savage, dangerous, or militarized quality. His value as a war god is placed in doubt: during the Trojan War, Ares was on the losing side, while Athena, often depicted in Greek art as holding Nike (Victory) in her hand, favored the triumphant Greeks.
A mind /ˈmaɪnd/ is the set of cognitive faculties that enables consciousness, perception, thinking, judgement, and memory—a characteristic of humans, but which also may apply to other life forms.
A lengthy tradition of inquiries in philosophy, religion, psychology and cognitive science has sought to develop an understanding of what a mind is and what its distinguishing properties are. The main question regarding the nature of mind is its relation to the physical brain and nervous system – a question which is often framed as the mind–body problem, which considers whether mind is somehow separate from physical existence (dualism and idealism), or the mind is identical with the brain or some activity of the brain, deriving from and/or reducible to physical phenomena such as neuronal activity (physicalism). Another question concerns which types of beings are capable of having minds, for example whether mind is exclusive to humans, possessed also by some or all animals, by all living things, or whether mind can also be a property of some types of man-made machines.
Taylor Alison Swift (born December 13, 1989) is an American singer-songwriter. Raised in Wyomissing, Pennsylvania, she moved to Nashville, Tennessee, at the age of 14 to pursue a career in country music. She signed with the independent label Big Machine Records and became the youngest songwriter ever signed by the Sony/ATV Music publishing house. The release of Swift's eponymous debut album in 2006 marked the start of her career as a country music singer. Her third single, "Our Song", made her the youngest person to single-handedly write and perform a number-one song on the Hot Country Songs chart.
Swift's second album, Fearless, was released in 2008. Buoyed by the pop crossover success of the singles "Love Story" and "You Belong with Me", Fearless became the best-selling album of 2009 in the United States. The album won four Grammy Awards, making Swift the youngest ever Album of the Year winner. Swift's third and fourth albums, 2010's Speak Now and 2012's Red, both sold more than one million copies within the first week of their U.S release. Speak Now's "Mean" won two Grammy Awards, while Red's singles "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" and "I Knew You Were Trouble" were successful worldwide. Swift's fifth album, the pop-focused 1989, was released in 2014 and sold more copies in its opening week than any album in the previous 12 years, making Swift the first and only act to have three albums sell more than one million copies in the opening release week. Its singles "Shake It Off", "Blank Space", and "Bad Blood" reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100. The album would go on to win three awards at the 2016 Grammys including Album of the Year making Swift the first and thus far only female artist to receive the award twice.
A qué esperáis? by Ars AmandiLuchando por algo que tienes muy cerca,
Tragando desprecios, aguantando mierda.
Te clavan puñales, te comes el miedo,
Pensando que todo se puede acabar.
Sonrisas en caras, falsas apariencias,
Palabras que olvidan que eres persona.
Confías en algo y te traicionará,
Intentas olvidarlo y no quieres cambiar.
No debes callar, o algo puede reventar.
No puedes sufrir por decir la verdad.
Tienes que gritar hasta la saciedad.
Te tienen que oír, no te eches para atrás.
... (melodía)...
Se pasan los días, te bebes la vida,
Cierran cicatrices que no son de guerra.
Conforme con nada si es tu presente,
Recorres las calles sin rumbo a seguir.
No olvides que un tiempo tuviste en tus manos
La libre opinión de decir: "¿Qué esperamos"?
Y ahora que puedes, te cruzas de brazos,
Esperando a que todo vuelva a ser real.
Tienes que seguir, nadie te lo va a impedir.
Hay una verdad ante la adversidad.
No mires sin ver, o te puedes caer.
Si sigues así, tú lo vas a conseguir.
[Estribillo]
Desata el nudo y tíralo,
Levanta la cara, ten valor.
No siembres nunca tu temor,
No lo siembres, no,
Que aún te queda la ambición,
Prosigue tu camino,
Que hay muchas cosas por hacer,
Una es empezar.
... (melodía)...
Tienes que seguir, nadie te lo va impedir.
Hay una verdad ante la adversidad.
No mires sin ver, o te puedes caer.
Si sigues así, tú lo vas a conseguir.
[Estribillo] (x2)
Desata el nudo y tíralo,
Levanta la cara, ten valor.
No siembres nunca tu temor,
No lo siembres, no,
Que aún te queda la ambición,
Prosigue tu camino,
Que hay muchas cosas por hacer,
