NeartWord Writing Project - A Motivational and Inspiring Word You Need to Read Everyday

  When we are incorporating the spirit of caring about life as the ultimate goal, two things noticed are the sense of justice and the good intentions in every single action performed. However, it is extremely difficult to segregate suffering from those two characteristics, as consciousness is still under development, and the sense of justice can be easily disturbed by negative emotions experienced. Keeping the smile in order to develop a kind, compassionate, and non-judgemental attitude towards the self and others is what makes the growth of light from the inside out part of the path to achieve peace of mind. Performing our mind training to increase the awareness about anything we have contact with, implies moments of disturbance. Moments we have no clear idea that something we are experiencing is whether good; something we have contact with is really whether beneficial to the self; or something we find to be interesting being actually a conditioned and unconscious way to deal with...

  We can never forget the experience of a good gesture or a genuine smile, as much as we never regret not copying negative conditioning and extracting priceless knowledge from the obnoxious behaviours we have contact with. That is the fighting style we have to pursue while facing darkness, i.e., the fighting style that requires no actual fight to be performed. There is something behind the path of understanding our own suffering that is obvious but, at the same time, easily disregarded by the self when suffering is vivid in the scene: knowledge. Extracting knowledge from the scene we are part of is the foundation of understanding our own suffering, and the relation of such a period with everything we are experiencing in the present moment. The moment we have the clear picture within our mind about the need of knowledge, and what huge difference it makes on the path towards a meaningful life, it is the moment we understand the movements and flows of energies that culminate the imper...

  Sometimes we are inserted into a harsh environment where it is not so easy to live in. We have not enough food, not enough water, not enough space, or even no place to rest and perform our body and mind training at peace. In those environments we have two options: (1) step into an endless period of suffering, which means deteriorating the self with no perspective of improving and regaining consciousness; or (2) face the challenges and difficulties life presents to us no matter the circumstances, understanding that the power to overcome them is generated and cultivated from the inside out. The more we acquire knowledge, transforming it into wisdom, the more we use our intelligence in a smart, kind, non-judgemental, and beneficial way. The environment we are inserted into does not define us, but if we keep consciousness at hand it can help to sharpen up our mind, identifying the sources of the huge negative charge of energy we are subjected to, in order to establish proper strategi...

  Like a tree that is growing strong and tall by feeding from the resources present in the soil, we can observe the environment we are inserted into in order to cultivate our love nature, and step into our personal evolution. Even when we have contact with obnoxious behaviours and situations, which in essence are charged by negative energy and intentions, we have the power to transform such negativity into something beneficial to the self, the knowledge we extract from those moments. It is by observing, analysing, understanding, and adapting to face challenges and difficulties life presents to us that we become a resilient source of light darkness is not able to obfuscate, no matter the circumstances. Do not worry if you are not feeling prepared to face all the challenges and difficulties life is presenting in the present moment, mainly the ones deeply associated with the huge amount of negative energy darkness is still disseminating in the society we live in. The moment we step in...

  The moment we listen to someone else laughing about discriminatory acts, and violations of human rights, it is the moment we understand how darkness has got into the roots of current society. What could we do about that? Be conscious to not enrol into the same negative conditioning we are subjected to. What should we do about law application if, in a hypothetical situation, we find out the existence of a tiny device implanted in the genital of a woman, which allows sexual abuse and slavery, violating deeply the human rights of that citizen? A tough and 1 million dollar question. What should we do about law application if, in a hypothetical situation, we find out the existence of a tiny device implanted in the genital of a man, which deeply violates the human rights of that citizen? A tough and 1 million dollar question. These aforementioned questions pose a threat to humanity: Is it possible that a person is capable of doing such atrocities? Unfortunately, considering the current...

  While walking our own path we may see an immense uncertainty before our naked eyes, implying the requirement to be more careful in each step we take towards the path of a meaningful life. It means we need to establish a safe ground, with a solid foundation where we can rely on when stepping forward. It is only by acquiring the proper knowledge to deal with our own suffering that we can understand uncertainty as a source of wisdom from the moment we extract useful teachings from it. It is time to realise that knowledge is what we need to deal in a conscious and meaningful way with anything life presents to us. It is only by acquiring the proper knowledge that we are able to analyse and understand things we observe within, and on the outside, segregating illusions, concepts, applications, actions, reactions, lies, and truths. The moment we see different things bunched together as a singular and big closed unit, such an illusion may trick our unconscious mind, conditioning us to see...

  Crimes against humanity are easy to identify but hard to have an effective solution for. Society expects suffering, and suffering is the intended result of who is committing the crime. If a solution is achieved only when it ends with suffering, conscious minds have no help. Being kind and non-judgemental is something aligned with our love nature. Treating people like a dumb is a period of suffering, which is part of the good-cop-bad-cop strategy. Recognising moments to stand strong and moments to let it go is wisdom rather than intelligence.As a consequence, cultivating our capability to self-sustainability is extremely important to not let any obnoxious behaviour we have contact with disturb our mind to lead us towards a non-end loop of suffering.  Suicide is not a way out, and solves nothing in terms of being aware of the problem with humanity, and the crimes society tolerates in exchange of chaos and suffering. Enrolling in the path of suffering just because the majority ...

  Walking through the beach of life, side by side with its associated ocean, can reveal a beautiful and astonishing insight about how easy it is to observe the waters when we are in a safe ground. We can observe and analyse what we are seeing but we cannot understand what is really happening within the waters, even if we get a good outside view of it. Therefore, the only way to deal with the challenges and difficulties present in the water is learning how to swim. The same happens with the mind. The only way to deal with our own suffering is learning how to rule our mind properly through mind training. It is time to realise we need to learn how to rule our mind properly, even if we need help doing it. Learning by ourselves can be challenging although it is extremely beneficial to the self. However, learning with the help of someone can also be beneficial while the person gets not comfortable to step in the ocean of life, and dealing by herself/himself with the disturbances that cha...

  The moment we realise what kind of behaviour may trigger the rise of negative emotions, it is the moment we understand that there is always a stone holding the intelligence required to manifest wisdom in the present moment.  As a consequence of our capability to recognise the lack of knowledge to achieve higher wisdom about what we face in the present moment, we develop the ability to consciously characterise a meaningful way to understand what the stone means within our own perspective and relativity. Sometimes we do not need to know all the knowledge held by a stone but only it is there. Sometimes we can lift such a stone to put aside its influence that blocks access to knowledge. Sometimes we just recognise the suffering concentrated and represented by a stone, understanding that our own suffering may lead us to become a vivid representation of such a stone ourselves. However, we have to be conscious to know the existence of different kinds of stones, and we can become a ...

"The moment we disregard education it is the moment we are lost. Lost in darkness, lost in ignorance, and lost in the capability to control ourselves. It is just through education that we can identify the need for law application when education is aside the equation." — Jeferson Souza (thejefecomp).

  When we are practising it may seem we are not aware of what happens in the surroundings, as we get focused on achieving the goal proposed by our training. It is true for the very moment we are performing an action towards the proposed goal. However, we have to be aware of what happens in the surroundings in order to drive our training and adapt our strategies according to the environmental conditions we observe in the present moment, considering that the presence of such conditions may affect our achievements. That is application of knowledge, using both intelligence and wisdom. Do not let the entrance of a new environment put any fear on the self, being afraid of the unknown and the uncertainty we may face in the scene we are part of. The unknown can be seen as a wonderful source of knowledge, implying an entrance to discoveries that we could not be aware of by keeping the self in a conditioned, and therefore suffering state. The action we have to perform, the balance we need to...

  It is by paying attention to the details that we can develop ourselves towards personal evolution, observing, learning, understanding, growing, and being in constant change towards the transformation of something better than we are in the present moment. We just need to experience what our love nature enables us to experience. We just need to live our life, being non-judgemental towards the self and others no matter the circumstances. Our light is cultivated and nurtured within in order to flourish and manifest its beauty from the inside out. No matter who we are, what social class we are part of, the skin colour we possess, the mother tongue we speak, the gender, citizenship, or any other characteristic to identify ourselves in the environment we are inserted into, we are who we are because of the love nature we cultivate and nurture within. No other characteristic has the power to define us genuinely. They are just external and incomplete ways to see the tip of the iceberg rela...

  It is not always that we get to cross a clear road, where we have to be prepared to deal with a dirty environment, with a lot of dust that may contaminate us during the journey. Preventing such contamination is our personal duty, which requires, at least, consciousness to not let the dust cloud our senses and cause unconscious actions and reactions to anything we have contact with from the outside. By keeping consciousness at hand, any experience becomes a source for priceless knowledge that contributes to cultivating and enhancing peace of mind. Let us draw a clear and strong separation between preparation and expectation. While preparation means we are aware of what could happen, and therefore we can develop skills to deal with uncertainty in a conscious and meaningful way, expectation represents a mind in the future, disturbing the balance achieved by keeping the self in the present moment. Being prepared is then crucial to deal with darkness, even if uncertainty is vivid in t...

Jeferson Souza (thejefecomp), the Founder, Writer, and all in between at NeartWord will be presenting a paper at the 11th Latin-American Symposium on Dependable Computing (LADC'22) next week in Fortaleza-CE, Brazil. The event occurs between November 21-24, 2022. From the Symposium's website ( https://ladc.sbc.org.br/ ): "The Latin-American Symposium on Dependable Computing (LADC) is the major event on computer system dependability in Latin-America. LADC’2022 will feature technical sessions, workshops, tutorials, fast abstracts, keynote talks from international experts in the area, and an industrial track. The symposium scope includes recent research results on software and system dependability. The Symposium is promoted by the Special Committee on Fault-Tolerant Systems (CE-TF) of the Brazilian Computer Society (SBC). LADC’2022 will be co-located with the XI Brazilian Symposium on Computing Systems Engineering (SBESC)." If you are by change in Fortaleza during this pe...

  Living a life is something we cannot transfer to another. We have to learn it on our own, observing, analysing, absorbing, and understanding both life's events and experiences. The goal of playing the chess of life has to be defeating ourselves. We have to be focused on dealing with things, roles, and pieces only if required to. Thus, the enhancement of the self is what makes us getting closer to who is really managing and playing a game. The moment we realise that such a game is part of a period of suffering we may be experiencing, it is the moment we understand that genuine love plays no game to know how the puzzle gets solved, being not afraid to face any challenge or difficulty life presents to us. I know that challenges and difficulties we face during our life journey could be a pain in the ass with no clear strategy to deal with in the present moment. We learn how to be resilient of their negative side-effects instead of seeking how to find their sources to either end up or...

  When we have got a surname as the first name we know how strange it may sound for a foreigner learning that, e.g., Jeferson is really used as a first name in Brazil. And to be more unique, Jeferson has no two ffs, differently from the one coming from the United Kingdom. That kind of uniqueness is something we have little or no power to change, as it is part of our identification as citizens. I have no idea why Brazil has allowed birth registration with those incoherencies but it just exists and we have to live with it. The same happens with the presence of darkness within the environment we are inserted into. It is something that is there and we have to learn how to diminish its influence in order to walk our path towards a meaningful life no matter the circumstances. When we have little or no knowledge about things related to our daily life, we may walk our path unaware of things, following unconsciously what we have contact with in the environment we are inserted into. The mome...

  There are multiple ways to reach a goal even when we are walking the path towards a meaningful life. Some are faster than others, sometimes requiring more or less knowledge, intelligence, and wisdom according to the destination, the starting point, and the way we have chosen. There is no need to get frustrated if, by any chance, we take more time to observe, analyse, and understand anything we have contact with in life. The most important is keeping consciousness at hand to prevent negative conditioning to dictate actions and reactions we have in the present moment. Living a life is unique, which means there is no other life equal to others. As a consequence, there are no two equal paths towards a meaningful life. Each one of us has to develop our own strategies to face challenges and difficulties in the scene we are inserted into, adapting and applying already known knowledge if required to. Do not be afraid to try out something new. Do not be afraid to face the unknown. Do not ...

  Being aligned with our love nature is understanding that happiness can flourish from within no matter the circumstances. We do not need to fit into a pattern, a negative conditioning trying to be imposed. We just need to see the astonishing figure we are, with no need to compare ourselves to another. We are unique and beautiful the way we are. There is no need to be afraid of not fitting into a pattern, a negative conditioning trying to be imposed by society itself as the right way of living a life. Such imposition is in fact the entrance to a period of suffering marked by frustration. The moment our unconscious mind gets disturbed by what is observed in the surroundings, it is the moment we perform the first step towards the loop of suffering. By stepping into a period of suffering, the negative conditioning imposed may lead us to either getting sad by not behaving like the observed pattern, or in the worst case, trying to harm another just because we do not want another to be d...

  In the middle of the environment we are inserted into, there is always a path of light towards a meaningful life. We can either follow a path already there, or carve it through our conscious and meaningful actions. While following an already existent path has the challenge of being conscious, aware and awake to check the direction we are heading in, carving our own path has the responsibility to be conscious, and certain we are leaving a trace beneficial to the self and others. The more we are aligned with our love nature, the easier it is to walk through any environment we may be inserted into during our life journey. Do not mind to be conscious and care about life as the ultimate goal in the middle of a chaotic and harsh environment. Being different from the majority, and cultivating an honoured character, it is not a problem but a virtue. Walking our path with honour enables us to be always with our head up, assuming every single act and action we are part of if, and when requ...

  It is through knowledge that we can face anything with no fear, keeping consciousness at hand while cultivating and nurturing the beautiful light from the inside out. Dealing with challenges and difficulties we are experiencing in the present moment becomes lighter and easier upon acquiring the proper knowledge related to the subject we have to find a solution to solve, and end up for good. The moment we realise all answers we seek depends on how much knowledge we possess, it is the moment we understand acquiring knowledge is a non-end personal duty. Acquiring knowledge is fundamental to support walking any path, including the one towards a meaningful life. While walking the path of suffering, which makes the self acting and reacting in an unconscious and conditioned way, the acquisition of knowledge may trigger the awakening of our consciousness in order to be aware of what we are experiencing, allowing stepping out of it as soon as possible. The evolution of the self, the devel...

  From time to time we need to pass through a guided passage, in which the possibilities and directions are restricted, implying few options to make a decision. We can take advantage of those periods to enhance our observing and analytical skills, evaluating better what we have at hand, balancing the pros and cons related to each available option, and understanding all the consequences we are subjected to the moment we take a step towards the direction we have decided to head for. The peaceful state of mind we cultivate and nurture during our life path can be influenced by the priceless pieces of knowledge we may extract from such personal experience. As a beneficial consequence, wisdom overcomes, tames, rules, and controls intelligence in a peaceful and meaningful way. There are moments when we lose control of our actions, letting negative conditioning dominate the scene and dictate the sequence of events  we are part of in the present moment. Sometimes we call it hothead, wh...

  Any time becomes an opportunity to learn something new and practise everything we have already learned until the present moment. We can cultivate peace of mind no matter the circumstances. We are able to observe, analyse, and understand the presence of negative energy in the surroundings. We live our own life instead of looking to the outside in an attempt to find something more interesting than our own perspective and relativity. We learn to not be dependent on our emotions, which is a fundamental step to keep consciousness at hand, and the self in the path of a meaningful life. When suffering comes we are ready, and the moment darkness reaches we are prepared. Dealing with negativity is extremely related to the wonderful teaching that Buddha, the enlightened one, has provided about the need of not accepting any gift charged with negative energy that someone else is trying to give us, sometimes with no apparent reason. We have to keep consciousness at hand because we know that t...

  We should not try to charge others. The moment we do it, we are just experiencing suffering. Dealing with our own suffering is not the business of another but the self. The moment we understand it, it is the moment we get ready to face darkness in a meaningful way. The clash between darkness and light is something we cannot be away from, even when we distance ourselves from conflicts, implying to stay far away from the negative energy being disseminated. The influence of darkness, the negative conditioning promoting the hatred culture, is vivid. The only way to continue living in society is learning how to defend ourselves from it. Preventing hatred culture to influence the self is the starting point. We see corruption and we are not corrupted. We see dirty work and we have no interest in doing the same. We see violations of fundamental rights and we put ourselves into a position of standing up to prevent those violations from happening under our watch, seeking to acquire clear e...

  It is based on knowledge that we can recognise the truths and lies we are subjected to in the present moment, which sometimes are disseminated freely to the masses. From our own perspective and relativity there is nothing we can do to stop such dissemination. However, we can search for knowledge to seek the proper understanding required to prevent believing in a lie and disregarding the truth. The moment we realise the illusions we are subjected to, it is the moment we understand that relying on the self is the only way to achieve peace of mind, no matter the circumstances. Sometimes we receive a burst of information related to a given subject like a belief that must be incorporated with no questions asked. In those moments keeping consciousness at hand is essential, as well as asking the right questions to seek proper answers for truths, and absence or wrong answers for lies. The main questions we can use in our favour are "why?", "how?", "when?", ...

  While doing our daily activities we need to be focused on delivering everything we propose to with love. Sometimes challenges and difficulties we are facing in the present moment make us forget that, which is what darkness needs the most. In that moment we have to dress ourselves beautifully, shining the astonishing intelligence and wisdom we possess to remember how amazing we are. I particularly love that dress. There is always a beautiful light within, no matter the circumstances. When we keep consciousness at hand, tapping into our love nature, such light shines brightly and peace of mind is achieved. Let us remember that while facing darkness. Facing darkness is not an easy task, and although it presents similar patterns associated with challenges and difficulties we are dealing with, there is also an uniqueness in the charge of the negative energy we have contact with. Darkness feeds on the fears and desires of each one of us, which are unique. If we desire something we are ...

  Sometimes we have to face difficulties during our path, which are derived from something created by humankind. Depending on how conscious we are about our own capabilities and presented power, we may feel either frustrated or intimidated, implying a natural fear to continue walking in the direction aligned with our love nature. There is no reason to fear anything or anyone if our motivation, feelings, and intentions are both good and genuine, even if the amount of negativity and dark energy in the surroundings surpass expected limits. The more we rely on the self while facing darkness, the more we understand that no army of negative intentions is capable of diminishing and obfuscating a positive and beautiful light shining from within. Focus, motivation, and training. Feelings, intentions, analysis, and performance. Standing up and never stopping because of any kind of negative energy we have contact with. Let frustration, anger, and fear of failure in the past. They are lessons ...

  In the chess of life we are the king or queen of our own perspective and relativity, ruling our mind and life no matter either challenges or difficulties we are facing in the present moment. The ruling of our mind and controlling of our life cannot be transferred to another, as no one is capable of living our life on our behalf. As a consequence, we need to keep consciousness at hand to observe, analyse, and understand what happens in the present moment, acquiring knowledge and extracting priceless teachings from both our own experiences and the experiences of others. Like Buddha, the enlightened one, the more we realise how to deal with our own suffering, the more we understand how to diminish and confine it as we please. When we think about how to improve our life in the present moment, there is no other way than tapping into our love nature to enhance our peace of mind in order to make the care about life vivid as the ultimate goal. There is no other way to achieve higher leve...

  When we are walking our path it is our duty to carry on things required by both body and mind training, in order to keep a peaceful state of mind. By taking care of the details, and the needs of our performed training, we are actually cultivating and nurturing the ability to do our self-care, paying attention to our self-enhancement and flourishing of our beautiful light from the inside out. The more we make the care about life vivid as the ultimate goal, the more we understand what we do towards ourselves we can also do towards another. Each one of us knows what special needs are required to keep the self in the right track of the path towards a meaningful life. It is our duty to keep a positive attitude, a kind and warm heart, together with a strong will that is capable of facing anything, even long distances and journeys. It is from the power of the mind, the consciousness of our actions and reactions, and being aware of the good purpose of what we are doing at the present mom...

  Sometimes we are enjoying a beautiful and peaceful moment and a lightning discharge occurs out of sudden, announcing that something not good may come in our direction. It is an announcement to get prepared. When we ignore that, we are in the hands of the environment, which means the probability of stepping into a period of suffering becomes higher. We have the power to not accept anything negative coming in our direction, or anything trying to diminish the happiness we are generating and feeling from the inside out. The moment we realise how to identify the rise of negative emotions triggered by negative scenes performed in the surroundings, it is the moment we understand it is through cultivating and nurturing our love nature that we diminish the darkness power within our own perspective and relativity. We have the power at hand to be resilient no matter the circumstances, as darkness works on the shadows by poking, disturbing, difficulting, and expecting negative outcomes from ...

  Sometimes we are walking through a part of our path where our view of the scene gets clouded. We are not able to see clearly what comes next, and what we see is not enough to make a strong decision about the step we perform in the present moment. The only way to walk through such an environment with a lot of uncertainty is to rely on our love nature, and the beautiful light we are able to shine from the inside out. The moment we use our light as a guide of our actions, it is the moment we understand relying on the self is the way to prevent negative conditioning to dictate what we do no matter the circumstances. It is time to realise we need to acquire as much knowledge as possible to establish a strong and trustworthy connection between our body and mind, making it the foundation and support of our decisions based on what we cultivate and nurture within. There is no other way to prevent negative conditioning from entering our personal fortress besides strengthening our defences,...

  An old Buddha’s teaching says that all negativity we cultivate and disseminate towards anyone, or anything, has only the power to deteriorate the self, even when utilised to enhance the knowledge related to our own suffering. Thus, we are subjected to what we cultivate. Positive attitude and positive intentions. Those are essential postures we need to assume in order to walk the path towards a meaningful life. There is no other way of dealing with darkness, and its associated negativity, rather than facing it directly no matter the circumstances. We have nothing to lose. On the contrary, we have only prizes to collect, from the knowledge we are able to acquire, to the peaceful state of mind we have established, cultivated, and nurtured all along. Darkness will never stop. Hidden racism and discrimination would follow the lead, prosecuting a considerable slice of the entire world population like slavery has already done in ancient times, and in the light of the common established ...
