It is time to listen to the ancient, and to be grateful to the gift of life. It is time to be reunited with our own consciousness, and to plan the next moment, the next step after the right present we are just in the finish line. It is time to look at the surroundings; it is time to incorporate all the lessons from childhood to the moment we are right now. It is time to embrace the soundtrack we have chosen for ourselves. It is time just to relax and follow the melody of our instincts, at the very moment the right time reaches our doorstep.

The hardest lesson in life is to realise we are part of a social system but, at the very centre, we are singular individuals. We influence and we get influenced by the behaviour observed within our surroundings but, at the very end, all the decisions are ours to make and directions we go into are ours to choose. Consciously or unconsciously, we make decisions all the time.

Sometimes we feel the pressure to make a tough decision because it is not what the majority usually decides. We sometimes change what we would like to do because of the environment, and the influence it performs on the persona we play in a given social circle. All of that are illusions, fabrications created by the impressions delimited by social conventions and guidelines, which must be followed by the ones of “good family”.

Sometimes we get preoccupied about the distant future. We fear the difficulties we face right now will rest for a lifetime, but how could we be certain about a future we have no knowledge to forecast? Another deep and factitious illusion, which has been fed by our ignorance and lack of consciousness to embrace the impermanence of life.

It is time to be kind and compassionate and it is also time to be conscious that: together we are stronger but without the individual the idea of community does not exist.

It is time to fear nothing and to be prepared for anything life presents to us. It is time to realise the purpose of life is to be happy and to spread happiness all around. It is time to realise we are not defined by others but by ourselves.

It is time to decide what matters most: a happy individual or an unhappy member? The choice is always ours, no matter the circumstances.

Namaste 💓💓💓💓💓💓💓

  It’s important we get prepared to apply defensive manoeuvres any time, anywhere, and at any circumstances. Although the majority of us live in an environment where internal conflicts and wars are somehow not so close, dealing with dishonest, dishonoured, and deceptive people and behaviours requires us to be ready for facing and dealing with anything before us. That’s why it’s important to learn how to survive outside civilisation, where danger and threats aren’t limited to facing and dealing with minds in suffering. Inside a Jungle, a desert, or any other place where traces of civilisation are little or non-existent, the restrainment of resources (e.g., food and fresh water), as well as the presence of other animals in the surroundings (e.g., spiders, big snakes, jaguars, lions, tigers, and so on)---which may see us as a prey—become big concerns far more urgent than dealing with dishonest, dishonoured, and deceptive presence of minds in suffering in the surroundings. Thus, the mo...

  When our purpose is genuine and crystal clear, there’s nothing that can stop us to attain that goal, not even a strong source of negativity surrounding us. The secret is always on our motivation to thrive, and therefore, the motivation to trespass any barrier imposed, no matter the circumstances. We can think of it as a serious game; a game of life where we’ve no additional spare lives, which implies that every move counts either towards our goal or backwards to somewhere else. When we get used to so much negativity in the surroundings, and start realising it was there for much longer than we may be aware of, we start questioning everything. It’s in this darkest time that we need to look deep within to realise and understand we aren’t what the outside may project about us but what we feel of getting totally aligned with our love nature and fulfilling the mission we’re assigned when we were born. Let’s forget about others and focus on making sure love spreads all around, even if, ...

The Neo-Nazi ideology is already deep in the roots of our current society, and as part of our culture and way of life, it’s dictating and conditioning what people see as normal behaviour in some social spaces. The simple act of gossiping with the goal of imposing additional difficulties in the life of another is a Neo-Nazi influence that passes almost unnoticed to our naked eyes. Stopping and diminishing those behaviours related to Neo-Nazi ideologies is the way of facing darkness and dealing with the negative conditioning we’re subjected to in a conscious and meaningful way. No darkness has power to obfuscate the natural light we’ve deep within. We just need to find a way of cultivating and nurturing our light to be influenced and conditioned by darkness no more. Suicide is not a way out. We need to learn how to live a meaningful life with the duty of facing darkness and dealing with its presence in the surroundings in a conscious and meaningful way. That’s the path towards our person...
