Benjamin de Aguiar by the Spirit Eugênia.
Try to recover the good memories.
If you pay attention, you will notice so many benefits along your life in the form of health, opportunities of working and being useful to the common good, that you will easily conclude that only the ego and its fantasies of greatness and attachment to what is transient (to which is already dead, even though it does not seem to be) favor the ideas and feelings of unhappiness, anguish, fear and scarcity.
Everything is relative to the viewpoint. One can feel poor or wealthy, ignorant or wise, fortunate or disgraced, depending on the chosen angle of observation. Why then, not to choose the best?
Clearly, with such assertions, we would never be agreeing with or encouraging accommodating and negligent postures. Each creature must work, with responsible commitment, for the improvement of his and his peer’s living conditions. However, in this culture of complaint, non-satisfaction, envy and misery – both material and moral – it is necessary to highlight this perspective of the pattern of perception and evaluation we decide to use in relation to ourselves and to the others, as well as to interpret external events, from the most ordinary ones, from everyday life, to the most cyclopean ones, in the macrocosm of sidereal creation.
Decide to be happy, friend – today, not tomorrow; now, not later. Make plans for the future, but do not forget the essential: focusing your attention on the present. Lastly, that in this strategy of focusing on the here and now, without forgetting what is far away and yet to come, transforming what is close in a safe cornerstone for what is distant, you are able to find the fundamental match of values and principles to the spirit of goodness and solidarity, following, at the same time, the compass of your conscience and the winnow of your personal vocation that will point out, without visceral errors, the route of humanitarian, professional, familial and spiritual ideal you should follow to reach the enjoyment of happiness since now, but with progressive steps towards the infinite Tomorrow we all have ahead of us, notwithstanding the unpredictable setbacks (a natural occurrence) that surprise us here and there, on the path of existence and evolution, since we (and the pillars of our lives) will be firmly backed by the solid rock of the wisdom consciousness level – the “Truth” to what the Christ referred when He asserted that once we found It, It would set us free… forever, from the raw yoke of our afflictions, so that from then on, we could only see challenges and stimuli to advancing, growing up, learning and becoming happier!…
