In his poem 'Keeping Quiet,' Pablo Neruda urges us to be still and quiet, even if it's just for a moment. During these moments of inactivity, all destructive actions will stop, wars will end, and the sadness of not understanding ourselves will be interrupted. Even the fishermen at sea will spare the whales, and the whole Earth will come alive. The poem also invites us to connect with nature and rediscover our true essence, allowing us to be kind and respectful towards each other. Neruda reminds us that even in apparent stillness, there is the possibility of life.
