Hōʻike ke kūlana o ke ao nei i ka palupalu a me ka contingency ("pehea e hiki mai ai ka make" e like me kā Jorge Manrique i ʻōlelo ai) o ke kanaka. I mua o kēia kūlana, nui nā mea koʻikoʻi i hele mai i mua. ʻO kekahi o lākou ka moʻomeheu. Kū pololei ʻo Alfonso X el Sabio no ka mea ʻo ia kekahi o kā mākou mau mōʻī mua i ʻike i ka moʻomeheu ma ke ʻano he ʻenekini o ka holomua waiwai a me ka nohona, a ʻo ia hoʻi, he mea e hoʻokokoke aku ai iā mākou i ka hauʻoli; ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi: e hauʻoli i nā manawa hauʻoli.
I kekahi manawa no ka mea, ʻoi aku ka pragmatism i ko mākou kaiāulu. He aha ke ʻano o kēia? No ka mea, ʻo ka mea nui ka mea e pono ai, ka mea e pono ai no kāu ʻeke, he aha ka mea e pono ai. Hoʻokuʻu ʻia nā mea a pau i loaʻa ʻole kahi pono koke.
ʻIke wau i loko o ke Kulanui, ʻo ke kaumaha, ʻaʻole ia he wahi e ʻike ʻia ai ka ʻike (e like me nā kula medieval), akā he hale hana ʻoihana. Pono ʻoe e hele i ke Kulanui e aʻo, e hoʻomaʻamaʻa, e hauʻoli i ka hauʻoli o ka ʻike, ʻaʻole me ka manaʻo e loaʻa kahi hana, ʻo ia kekahi mea āu e hakakā ai ma hope.
Akā ʻo ka paradox ʻo nā mea koʻikoʻi o ke ola he mau mea pono ʻole, no ka mea ʻaʻole lākou e pili ana i ka loaʻa ʻana, ʻaʻole pono lākou i mea e loaʻa ai ka waiwai waiwai, akā kōkua lākou iā mākou. No ka haʻi ʻana me ka manaʻo Aristotelian, ʻaʻole lākou i haumia e ka manaʻo he waiwai lākou. He aha ka hoʻohana ʻana o ke aloha, democracy, ka noʻonoʻo ʻana i ka puka ʻana o ka lā a i ʻole ke kiʻi pena a Caravaggio, e hoʻolohe ana i ke mele a Beethoven, e nānā ana i nā hōkū e like me kā Alfonso X, ka ʻohana, e noho ana ma luna o kahi noho i waenakonu o kahi paka? He mau mea waiwai i loko o lākou iho a ʻaʻole ma luna o kekahi mea; ʻO kā mākou kōkua e ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi, e ʻono i ka hauʻoli o ka noho ʻana me ka ʻole. ʻO nā mea koʻikoʻi o ke ola ʻaʻole huahana no ka mākeke, akā pili pū me ko mākou manaʻo, me ka hauʻoli o ka noho ʻana e hōʻoiaʻiʻo iā mākou.
ʻO kēia lā Malaki 21 ka lā Poetry o ka honua. I kēia lā ua hōʻike ka haku mele ʻo Jesús Maroto i kahi hōʻiliʻili mele hou (i kapa ʻia ʻo 'The relevant days') ma ka Hale Hōʻikeʻike o Toledo. ʻAʻole makemake wale ko mākou kamaʻāina ʻo Alfonso X i ka hoʻolohe ʻana i nā mele (e hoʻomaikaʻi i nā minstrels a me nā troubadours) akā ua kākau pū kekahi (aia kāna mau mele). No ke aha ke mele? ʻAe, ʻo ia kona waiwai: makehewa no ka mea ʻaʻole ia e komo i nā hana i haumia ʻia e ka pono. Ke ho'āʻo nei e hoʻokaʻakaʻa i ko mākou mau maka e ʻike hou aʻe a maikaʻi aʻe, a e hoʻokokoke iā mākou i ka puʻuwai ola a me ka pumehana o ke ola, ʻaʻole ia he liʻiliʻi. I nā wā paʻakikī, kōkua mai nā mele (a me ka moʻomeheu maʻamau) i mea e manaʻo ai mākou ʻoiai nā kūlana ʻino a pau, hiki i ka nani a me ka maikaʻi ke ola. Poetry, e hoʻohana i nā kiʻi o ka poet Jesús Maroto, pono e like me ka berena a he mea pili; hāʻawi ia i kahi ʻano naʻauao e waiwai ai iā ia iho. A he nui kēlā.
