Happy new year

Regardless the symbolism of the new year, do not crystallize in the past, and not loose yourself in the future. The past is gone and the future has not yet arrived. If you want to stay balanced try to deeply observe life as it is, here and now.

End of the world?

End of the world?? Maybe ... World is made of small worlds that inevitably end to give place to new worlds. To build a new better world best we must not be afraid to end the little old worlds that make the world.

Keep the Christmas spirit alive

The spirit of love tends to end when Christmas season is over. Living the spirit of Christmas guided only by the calendar is a blasphemy to the Universe.

Training our mind for hapiness

Mental faculties can be trained towards happiness through meditation. Before we consider political solutions for a sustainable development, we need to discover this need for this type of permanent contentment. I see no other way to build a better society.

Be a gift

Here comes Christmas. I always wonder: Giving gifts or being a gift to the others? Being a gift is to give us, our time, energy, affection, to cherish, to be kind, welcoming to all. Being a gift is to give a hand, help is, is to accept the other as they are. This Christmas relive the love in your hearts, kindness, forgiveness, patience so that we can BE A GOOD GIFT. Merry Christmas.

Words from the heart

We must make an effort to eliminate the gap between what we say and what we feel, to eliminate the gap between words and the truth within us. Believe me that this is a worthwhile exercise.

Stop with hipocrisy

Another school massacre in U.S. ... It is easy to criticize the society we live in that makes human beings capable of such evil. We have to stop with this hypocrisy! Society is like this because we let it be like this. Will we be able to bring light to this society with new values ​​and points of interest, different ways of thinking and new sources of inspiration able to create a new humanity? For the moment I will pay my tribute to the victims with silence.

Produce more hapiness

I believe that the solution to the serious problems of our civilization is to consume less and produce more happiness.

Recycling problems

The best way to deal with problems that arise throughout life is to learn to use them as fuel for a peaceful and happier life.

Become a better person

Focus your mind in these words: "I am worthy. Worthy I am." Inspire and mentally say: "I am worthy." Breathe and feel, "I am worthy." Do this a few times. Allow these words to lead you to self-esteem. Take this new awareness for the day to day. Live with the consciousness: "I have value. I am worthy and deserving." Become a better person.

"Antidote" words

One of the best tools to neutralize negative thoughts is to mentally use positive " antidote words" that help us to improve mental environment when bad thoughts come around. Try it!

Live is the place

Life is a permanent happening. Thinking, acting, loving, laughing, crying, suffering are nothing if they don´t happen. Life is where everything happens.

Choose what makes you happy

Our Being is complex... Nobody is truly what wants to be, but we all have the right to choose ... Choose what makes you happy ... Now!

Past is to remember , not to live

Nothing can bring back the past. But many people , past is so alive in their minds , that instead of remembering it they live as if it was possible to bring it back. But nothing will bring back a time that is gone. Living in the past is not living. Life is now, in this moment.

Dancing in the rain

Living is not waiting for the storm to pass ... It's learning to dance in the rain!

Samsara

During our life we face endless waves of happiness and sorrow, prosperity and adversity (Samsara). In this ceaseless whirl we must be aware that all these waves are momentary. Therefore we should always relativize its importance.

We are what we think

When we face challenges, whether we think we can overcome them or that we can not overcome them, we are always right ... Think about this.

Do not invest in negative thoughts

Even if negative thoughts arise in your mind, do not engage with them, do not invest in them. Let them leave without allowing their roots to grow. If you do so, there will be no negative thouhts to be kicked out of your mind or any remorses having them.

Having is not living

Living on the basis of having and not being is to live in a permanent state of bankruptcy. Living in eagerness to conquer the world around us without finding out about ourselves is drowning in a small pool of water. Living is first of all to find ourselves.

Go forward

To go forward in life requires a commitment with ourselves. The commitment not to cling to our fears, to our closed minds, to our hardness of heart, and to our usual hesitation. Go forward in life means to develop confidence in our ability to abandon our excuses to stay still and to choose wisely which path to tread.

The noble art of stopping

Improve the art of stopping. The art of stopping is the art of looking within ourselves doing absolutely nothing. It is a time to contemplate our mind, our thoughts and feelings and see what should be kept and what should be discarded. Developing the art of stopping is essential.

You don´t have to be perfect

We forget that we don´t need to be perfect to be successful. We must live aware that the excessive pursuit of sucess and perfection consumes our energy and erodes our small daily joys.

Wash away your mind stains

Our fears, insecurities and negativity are not our mind. They are nothing but temporary stains that can be washed away.

Serenity is much more than being calm

Serenity is much more than being calm. Is to let negative feelings and emotions pass without cling to them. To better understand this concept, imagine life like a movie. If you press "pause" button to retain a negative event, you will lose the rest of your life. If we use too often the "rewind" button to experience these moments you tend to forget the present moment. Being calm is living above the present without dispersion, and without losing the focus of what you live in now.

Nirvana so close to you

There is no need to wait to die to experience nirvana, because nirvana is in everything when we live fully.

Walking meditation

Today I suggest that you develop the good habit of meditating while walking. Contemplate the unity of life while you walk.. When we walk with a carefree spirit our nervous system relaxes, the blood circulates with more vitality and the brain renews itself. This practice allows us to contemplate Life and to realize more clearly our deep identity with the universe.

The Universe is the whole reality

Let us become one with the universe. The Universe is the whole reality. We can not escape reality, whether we live in illusion or enlightenment.

Thoughts of Life

Thoughts of worry and fear are terrible forces within ourselves. They poison the very source of life and destroy the harmony, efficiency of action, vitality and vigor. Instead, thoughts of joy and courage, cure, increase efficiency and multiply the mental powers.

Go slowly

You can practice a quieter life practicing slow motion. The arrival at home at the end of a working day is a great opportunity to do household chores more slowly, watching every move and experiencing mindfulness in every action. Go slowly and keep trying.

Why wait?

We should not have to experience the violence of reality to believe it exists. It seems that we are "destined" to believe only then. Life can not be just for the day after tomorrow. Why wait to be fully aware of what is life?

Finding the meaning

To find the meaning of life is to live life fully every step, every moment, every event, every day.

It takes so little...

It takes so little to live. It takes so little to love. It takes so little to dream. It takes so little to the essential. It takes so little ... that for most of tge people being happy is an impossible task ..

Try this

Try this: Empty your lungs, empty your mind from thoughts, empty your emotions. Expire all the air that you can. And do not think of anything. Just realize, concentrate on that air coming out. Become your body. Become this air.

The greatest achievement

In life, the greatest achievement is the conquer of ourselves.

Paint your life

Tomorrow starts another week. Live it as if you was going to paint a canvas with a thousand colors painted by mysterious hands that exist within your being.

Don´t live as a snowman rope

Do not live a life temporarily, as if someone had given you rope. We have to stop living as if we were a snowman rope. Being Zen means not allowing the others to give rope to you from the outside, but live your own lives.

There are no shortcuts for Life

Everything that we live shapes us to be exactly what we need to be. Do not think we've lost time. There are no shortcuts for Life. Everything we experience is needed to lead us into the Now. And now is the right time to live!

Quality instead of quantity

Remember that we don´t live more fully by doing more, seeing more, trying more and experiencing more than ever before. Rather. We only begin to live more fully when we have the courage to do, see, taste and experience much less than we usually do ...

Don´t feed your thoughts

It's very hard not to think and when you try not to think you are already thninking. But thoughts don´t have feet and are not glued in you. If we don´t nourish them they end up leaving your head and peace of mind happens.

What is really bad...

Our mind makes us believe that it is good to hate what we think it´s mean. But even worse than that is to have a mind that hates ...

Sweet seeds produce sweet fruits

Buddha taught us that sweet seeds produce sweet fruits. So ask yourselves: What kind of seeds are you growing in your mind? What will be the result of your "vintage"? What do you have in mind, right now?

Being curious is not enough

As it comes to the pursuit of self knowledge and fulfillment, curiosity is a good starting point, but then it takes more than that. It takes courage to choose what we would like to do, despite all the consequences. Making mistakes makes us grow. What we must avoid is making the same mistake more than once. Have courage to listen to your own heart. On the journey of life our heart is the best lighthouse.

Collectors of Unique Moments

We often use the term "Unique Moments" to describe something exceptional that happened to us. Be true collectors' of "Unique Moments" in Life. Even if it is only feeling the sun or the rain on your face.

The reality in us

The reality in us: We can call it the Self, the Atman or even silence. When we pay attention to our behavior and learn to listen ourselves (or regain the natural ability to listen to ourselves, which, like breathing, can not be learned)we reach a serene happiness that can not be explained.

Rise!

For all those who suffer here is my appeal for you to rise up because you are not death, there is still life in you, there is still possibility of resume. Rise because it is still possible. There is still land in you where you can plant, water and grow abundant fruit. Rise because nothing is defenitive. Rise because everything is transitory, and we all have within us every opportunity to live.

The most important law

We can summarize the most important law of our life into a simple axiom: Be who you are!

It takes only a simple sunshine ray

Today the day is cloudy ... But as in life, it takes just a simple sunshine ray to dispel many shadows.

Life is not a right. Life is a privilege

Do not live life as if it is a right. Live Life as a privilege that you have been given and that we have to thank every day.

Too much understanding is less living

We care too much about understanding. Living fully surpasses any effort of understanding.

So close...

Don´t look for peace of mind and serenity around you. Look for it inside you.

Understanding our path

Never forget that when we realize that our path is more the result of our choices than directed by the obstacles that we found, so we start to truly believe on the meaning and direction of our life.

Serenety is the key

Finding serenity inside of us is the secret to live what we most desire: Peace, harmony and love. We can find all of this through serenity. Deep down we all can find it.

Be your own lighthouse

Nobody wants to live at random. To avoid this we have to find confidence, hope, strength, determination in the only place where they are. IN OURSELVES! Until we decide to look inside all the potential we have won´t be revealed. Holidays are a good moment to improve this effort. Try to do it. I´ll be back in the middle of August. Enjoy your holidays in peace.

Losing Vanity

Losing vanity is to give opportunity to discover ourselves without fantasies, without masks. When we lose vanity we find our space, our role, we achieve a sense of who we are. When we lose the vanity we find a new life , a life where people are happy just because they are, without anything else, for no reason why, just because they are alive. When we lose vanity we become stronger than the voices of the world and we become capable of following our own path.

Be like the light of the new day

Begin your day with this thoughts: Today, I'll be happy. Today, Ill have no fear. Today, I'll face myself. Today, I´ll be able to save me with all the intensity of my mind, heart, looking deeper inside me . The new day invites you to live it in a new way and without wasting. May the light of the new day guide you and act like the light that is projected in all that is happening.

True friendship

Today is the International Day of Friendship. A true friend is the one who knows everything about us and still continues to love us. A day full of true friendship :))

Let the sunlight lead you

There is no doubt that the highest intensity of sunlight in summer leads us to the rebirth of all things in our life, including our own attitudes.

Prefer YES

One of the most dangerous words in life is "if." It is difficult to perceive the literary sense of "if". It is always difficult to understand how we can be standing in front of an "if." Life shrinks , gets tight and gray because of an "if." I don´t like the "if". I prefer the "Yes".

The essence of the human being is joy

Joy is not the opposite of suffering. The opposite of joy is sorrow and not suffering. Joy has the depth of the soul, and is not affected by adverse circumstances. A complicated life is not a sad Life, and can even be a Life full of joy. Although it seems difficult to understand this the truth is that happiness should be the usual state of each person. Happiness should not depend on the circumstances because it is the essence of Life, and nobody can take the essence of Life. White is white even after painted black. A ball is a ball even if flat. A man is a man even when lying at a hospitals bed. The essence of the human being is joy.

Discovering real happiness

Happiness is, above all, a mood, a different way of looking at life. Happiness comes when we acquired the art of discovering the sun in every thing of life.

The arrow doesn´t come back!

Don´t regret. Don´t look back. Aim the target and shoot the arrow. The arrow doesn´t come back.

Finding our inner self

My thoughts stand still, breathe in and breathe out slowly and deeply, and in the center of my chest, a place of peace, I find myself with myself and my inner self.

A great point of view about pain!

Yesterday I took a picture to someone wearing a T-Shirt saying: "PAIN IS WEAKNESS LEAVING THE BODY" What a great point of view"

Live without fear!

All the uncertainty is a sign of fear that prevents us to live. To live fully we must the fear of making mistakes. Live without fear!

Unveal the mysteries of the mind

If you want to understand your mind watch it. There is nothing to learn, no rituals to observe. The mysteries of the mind are revealed only by themselves and simply through the power of conscious attention.

Insomnia...

The only thing that should cause insomnia is to go to bed with remorse for all that we didn´t live...

Laugh to Live

A day of absolute emptiness is a day without the sound of laugh. A good laugh is like a sunbeam. The human being is the only creature able to laugh and maybe the only one that deserves to be laughed at. Every time we laugh we add precious moments to our life.

Rethink ourselves can regenerate us

It is very important that we stop to rethink ourselves. It's an effort that regenerates us. We must find time to do this without any other thoughts or other concerns. It is the key to avoid that we become tired of ourselves.

The river of Life never stops

Try to enjoy Life. The worst way to live Life is to look at the river of Life only to regret the incessant flow of its waters. The course of the waters of Life never stops. Accept this law and seek to enjoy life.

Come on!

Today, I felt like I had to live this day with all the intensity and because it is not over yet, I continue to allow this day to be a day to remember!! Not alone, but with all of those who would like to share it with me. Come on! ;))

Focus your mind on hapiness

Happiness is not somewhere in the future. Hapiness is at this present moment right where you are. Focus your mind on hapiness. Happiness is not a closed paradise, separate from the world. It is at the same time, the source and the ocean. There is no happiness without the will to be happy.

Hop on or hop off ??

Changes are part of everyday Life and it´s what help us to build our inner foundations. I know that we are often afraid and that we think about quitting. Sooner or later Life will ask us what we did with the obstacles she had placed on our way. When that happens we have to choose whether we are the kind of person that clings to Life or if we prefer to be like those who hop off at the first stop.

Hand in hand

In Life choose those who know that walking hand in hand is more than a simple act of keeping hands together, who know that walking hand in hand is a way of exchanging energy, a way of saying: do not be deceived, I am here for you. Despite all obstacles that challenge us during our Life what really stands usually comes from those who are not afraid to stay.

Walking to enlightment

In Life we inevitably go through a sequence of closed doors. But we must carry on. I know that is not comfortable not knowing anything about the path. Sometimes we stumble. But always remember that it is the courage to walk through unknown paths and acquire the ability to heal ourselves everytime we fall that allows us to gradually begin to see the light.

Shake off the dust

Saturday .... There is no better day of the week to change the disc, clean the house, and shake off the dust. It's a great day to stop being who we were and transform ourselves into who we truly are, making us better persons. A serene and luminous Saturday! :))

Change your emotional channel

We must learn to let go. In life no one plays with marked cards, so sometimes we win and sometimes we lose. Never expect anything in return, never expect that the others will recognize your efforts. Stop turning on your emotional TV to always watch the same program!

Find inner space for your dreams

Time to time past collects our choices and our future expectations and tests our ability to reinvent ourselves. It's hard to calm down so many crowded sensations. It´s not easy but we sure have to find available room inside us for those dreams that are worth fighting for. Work it out. I believe there is always a way.

Every part of our Life has it´s role

There are no parts in the history of our life that doesn´t fit in. All these parts had a reason in our Life. There are so many parts in the story of our Life that sometimes we forget some of them. While we don´t forget them completely it´s because they are still lost within us. But when we least expect this lost parts will have an important role on our personal growth and self knowledge.

Do not leave blank pages in your life

In Life, my dears, we can not leave anything cheap. We have to take risks. Do not leave blank pages behind you.

Practicing the active standby

It is natural to have doubts and fears. This happens when we fail to hear our heart. If this happens just be quiet and wait. An active standby, with patience, acceptance, silence and joy. If you do so you will find peace in your heart when the wait is over.

Think positive

Thoughts are energy and energy follows thoughts. This is the basis of all creative work at the mental level. We can transform the mood of mind with positive thoughts. Likewise, negative thoughts can poison the mental atmosphere. Our thoughts are more powerful than generally believed. Hence the need for a creative and constructive use of this power. Think positive.

Feeling without a word

Words must be used without filters. Say what you feel, without many words. Because who needs words to feel ... muffles Life. And who needs to much words to fell is not able to feel the embrace of truth, will not understand any word at all ...

What matters is arriving

What if instead of always wanting to be the first ones, we allowed ourselves to be the second or the third? What matters is arriving, and when arriving, smiling, cheering and embracing life.

Have an affair with the unexpected

Open up yourself to what Life gives you. Flirt with what it offers you. Do not want the script routine. Improvise with what you don´t know. Have an affair with the unexpected ... Live!

Simply happy

Happiness is a feeling that is lost when we do not realize its simplicity

Timeless moments beyond thought.

Do not spend too much energy trying to figure out everything by logic. Thinking is important and useful, but in life it is essential to be attentive and responsive. Not everything in life is reducible to words, concepts and labels. There are even times when we just talk in silence, heart to heart. Timeless moments beyond thought.

Always stand for the moment

When we are not able to live fully a moment we simply don´t live it. There is no middle ground. Life really likes those who fully stand! ;)))

Crisis ??!!

Crisis!? Do not save on your smiles. :))) Life is made ​​to spend! This is how I like Life, a bold Life ;)))

Feel life as a rainstorm inside you

To live fully is to embrace passionately those moments of beauty that life offers us. Although ephemeral ,each moment of beauty is a complete experience that is destined for eternity. Don´t feel life in small doses. Feel it as a rainstorm inside of you.

Our plans are nomadic

When reality no longer gives us satisfaction it´s because it´s time to pack our dreams and leave in search of comfort for the soul. It is difficult to accept, but many of the places or situations that we live throughout life are temporary. Our plans are nomadic and they have their own will. At one point those plans are happy, minutes later ready to go. When this happens, more than the strength to leave the old house, it takes courage to face a journey into the unknown. I know that moving our ideals to another place in life can be daunting. But it can also be delicious if you start this trip guided by your own will.

The super power of thinking

Another day ends. As usual today´s "Menu" was living on the basis of pleasant thoughts. Do not be afraid of being imperfct. Don´t forget that we own the most amazing power of the Universe. THE POWER OF THINKING. We raise flight towards the achievement when we raise the quality of our thoughts, without thinking of failures. Let your heart be the architect of your Life.

Act instead of react

Act instead of react. To act means choosing and there is no wrong choices. When we choose we are always right, even when that option ends in harm or with an unexpected result. One option is always the result of a reflection and an evaluation of two or more possibilities. Errors are the result of a reckless attitude, not reflected, not evaluated. Who reacts instead of act ends up by not knowing what to do and with no way to proceed.

Be bold

Be bold! No matter if love did not work if the work or any other project did not result, even if it was just a simple will. Bet even if it means some falls and some frustrations from time to time. We create expectations because believing is delicious, and as much as the ground seems the safest place, nothing like the time when you take your feet off the ground and fly a little higher. And you know ... why doubt? Who knows if one day that idea does not come off the ground? And if that happens you will not be the first to give up because you are scared of heights, or will you ...?? ;)

Be wise

To be wise is to contemplate the treasures that grow from the inside, is to silence before the mysteries of the smallest things, is to think about life beyond appearances.

Don´t save life

Reap the day like a ripe fruit that tomorrow will be rotten. Life can not be saved for tomorrow because life only happens now!

Feelings have their own will

Don´t try to explain or find the rigth time or place for everything good that you feel. Our feelings are alive and decide without consulting us. They don´t care about time or place. It is the proof that in life labels and plans are expendable and feelings unclassifiable. And it´s better that way.

Mind traffic police

Negative emotions circulate in your mind. So be a kind of traffic police of the mind and lead these emotions with the power of thoughts to the exit door.

True miracle

The real miracle happens when everything seems to conspire against us, and life comes slowly and changes everything. Miracles happens when the improbable embraces us after striking us with it´s cruel rage and life smiles back to us. A miracle is the unlikely act of love of always trust in Life.

Learning to let go

Learning to let go implies the courage and energy to live according to the principle that in our life there is only room for the full, no room for divisions or halves. Only learning to let go allows the great journey of life to carry on.

A refresh on our attitude

One of the best forms of inner growth is to evaluate our attitude towards life. I don´t mean we have to stop doing what we usually do, or do new things with the same attitude, because doing different things with the same attitude is worthless. What is needed is "refresh" in our attitude towards life. A change in attitude both on those things we usually do, and before the novelty of things so far unknown to us.

Follow your intuition

When you manage to unite your mind with your heart and believe in the power of the universe, then yes, everything will flow. It's not worth trying to understand how and why. Just silence your mind and heart and hear the inner voice. Follow your intuition, and let the universe speak to you and tell you a secret: Life is wonderful.

Regarding the mean of life

Winter longs for spring and spring for summer. Night aspire to be day and flowers to be fruits. If we reflect on this we understand that changments are the only thing eternal in life. When we are totally aware of this reality we become more prepared for the role of changements in our life. Trying to combat the inevitable changes in life is suffering and disregarding the true meaning of life.

Zen doesn´t need a purpose

Zen is satisfactory without illumination. It doesn´t need a purpose. It's like life. Nothing else matters in life but to live it.

Words should match with your attitudes

Ensure that your actions match your words. Words should only be a complement of our attitudes. When words are not in sync with our attitudes they don´t get anywhere. It is in the consistency between our words and our actions that we recognize ourselves and others recognize us.

Perform Life as an art

To make life a form of art you have to learn the art of listening, the art of patience and to smile ... ever. :)))

Each one has the health it feels

I agree when people say that health is the most precious asset we have. But beware! There are ill people full of will to live and there are healthy people who languish in anguish for fear of suffering. Each one has the health it feels.

Older and "Zener"

Age really has some advantages and one is a kind of shield that stands between us and problems. It isn´t indifference or laziness but a way to look at life differently, with more patience, serenity and humor , much more Zen ... ;)

Walk complete

Do not look too much into the past. Who looks too much into the past leaves pieces of himself along the way and will be always incomplete.

World starts in us

To understand the world outside us, is not enough to measure, observe and label what is outside us. First of all we must discover our own soil inside us, because that is where the world is, first and foremost. In our deepest self.

Let life overtake you

Let Life overtake you. Some good things are the results of our efforts, but there are other good things that arrive without prior notice. But don´t worry too much about this unpredictability. How many times things that weren´t planned at all work better than others that were long thought out and planned. Sometimes the rule is not to have too many rules. And as a rule, this rule actually works ... ;))

Mistakes. So what?

It is impossible not to make mistakes throughout life. So what? All beings begin to die since the day they born and nobody expects that one day they become absolutely perfect. Every single being is only a sketch of what Universe planed for it´s own species. And why should we demand more than this?

Stop inertia with a small step

Often people wonder what can they do to make a 180 degree turn on their lifes. No matter how long you move north. With a simple step we you can begin to move south. Well, with only one step the best day of your life may be yet to come. In an instant, all the negative energies in your life can be redirected to something positive. Only one step is what is needed to end the inertia, and give life the way you really would like to have.

Think well about you

When you think about yourselve do it always with a bigger heart and under the motto of a great respect for yourselve. Otherwise you take the risk to dislike what you are and your self-esteem comes down ... So everytime you reflect about yourself do it full of desire of inner peace, with confidence and full of desire to live.

Enlightenment

People often ask me what is to attain a state of "enlightenment." In my humble opinion, the "enlightenment" is the highest expression of spiritual and intellectual life in man. It´s being fully awake, fully active, fully aware of being alive. It´s a spiritual wonder. It´s a spontaneous awe in front of the sacredness of life, of being. It´s s gratitude for life, for the consciousness, for being. It´s the perception of the fact that life in comes from an inner source, invisible, transcendent and infinitely abundant. "Enlightenment" is, above all, a state that is reached when we are fully aware of the existence of that source within us.

Beautiful scars

Try to see every scar that life has left on you as something beautiful. Consider this: Every scar means, I SURVIVED!

It worths to carry on

I will not say it´s easy, or that I never wanted to quit, but life has taught me that it worths to carry on...

Grow in love and peace

Seek to deepen the understanding you have about life, and fight not to be overwhelmed by the forces that try to dominate and to standardize our lives in a huge exercise of futility. Grow in love and peace.

One more try

Every morning when you wake up, do not forget that life is smiling at you and saying: "Come on, I'm giving you the chance to try again!"

Don´t get lost

Do not get lost between the "is not the right time to ..." and "now is the time is right to ...". Believe me ,there are many people who get lost between these two moments.

The human mind is like a raven

There is a bird that reminds me the human mind: the crow! The raven picks up all that glitters, even if their nest becomes cramped and uncomfortable with all the metal it puts into it.

Time to clean

The greatest need of our time is to eliminate the huge mass of mental and emotional garbage that drowns our minds and makes life a mass disease.
Without this cleaning effort is impossible to achieve inner peace and true happiness.

Live shinning like the sun

Being part of the human species is a glorious destiny, even if our species makes many terrible mistakes.
This perception, the perception of belonging to the human species, which may seem a trivial observation, is , afterall , based on a fact which is equivalent to win the first prize in the cosmic lottery.
That´s why people should try harder to live to shine like the sun.

Finding inner peace is your own job

We should always question all the answers and explanations that others give to existential issues and to the pursuit of inner peace.
Achieving the wisdom and inner peace is not only to observe and measure what is outside us, but, more importantly, to discover the depths of our being.

Dissolving inner barriers

It is true that it´s the silence of the mouth and of our imagination that dissolves what separates us from inner peace.
But more than this silence is the silence of all kinds of disordered and uncontrolled desires that eliminates the barrier that separates us from the divine within us.

Changements for better

Do not be afraid of changements in Life.
In Life there are things that are lost to give room for better things.

Our inner strength is greater

If today or tomorrow is not quite what you envisioned or dreamed, take a rainbow out of a hat, redo, stick, paint, because the strength that comes from within us is greater.
Our inner strength is greater than all the headwinds.

Short list of self prohibitions

Short list of prohibitions that we should impose on ourselves:
- Futile anxieties,
- Morbid fantasies;
- Useless memories

Get rid of everything that holds back your smiles.

One of the first rules of life we must learn is to get rid of everything and everyone that somehow holds back our smiles ...

Try to be different

Do not let the daily struggle or your routines crush you.
Be different.
And if you are not, try to be different! :)

To be humble is to learn to carry on

To be humble is to learn how to swallow the rejections of life and then say okay, wake up, brush your teeth, have a coffee and carry on with a smile.

It feels so good...

We all know it hurts when we suffer.
But I also know how good it feels when that suffering is over.

Be in peace with your own Life

Relax and breathe, because irritation does not do good to anyone.
We all have our problems, but we all have the ability to understand, endure and overcome those problems.
Live, live better, live smiling.
Be in peace with your own Life.

Everything will be alright

Today and always, even if something or someone is making you suffer, do not lose the idea of joy.
Despite of all, keep always the courage to feel happy.
Everything will be alright.

Decide to EXIST instead of last...

Do not spend a life doing nothing.
The worst that can happen to a person is to look back and say ... I did nothing.
That did no good or bad simply because they were afraid of making mistakes...
That´s the real tragedy.

Who are you chasing?

We are the controller and the controlled, the skeptic and the believer, the weak and the strong.
Do not forget that there is no escape when we're chasing ourselves.

Flow without purpose

Afterall , Life and love are just life and love, a bouquet of flowers is just a bouquet of flowers ...
Why introduce the idea of ​​purpose??
It is this idea of ​​purpose that ruins everything.
Live and let live, love and let love, flower, wither, and calmly follow the natural curve.
Flow without purpose ...

Watch how you manage altruism

Happiness has a tremendous ability to evade those who want to dominate and keep it for themself.
Therefore , we should avoid, in our relationships, wanting to make the others happy by force in accordance with our own criteria and projects.
The right measure is to help the other to be happy according to their own criteria and projects.
Watch how you manage altruism.

Children are like the birds

Do not forget that, as an Eastern proverb says, "Children are like the birds , they grow up and fly."

Rise

Make the place where you fall the place where you rise.

Live without fear

Live without fear of making mistakes in order to live in freedom.

Stop for a moment and pay attention to Life

It worths to stop for a moment and look to all that surrounds us.
In a word, it worths to live conscious , awake, vigilant and not let ourselves be caught by surprise of not knowing what surround us or not knowing those who are on our side.
Look at all things, people and moments as they are: New every day!

Life is made from inside

Life is made from inside to outside.
Everything made within us pours out of us.
So , try to be gentle and careful with all that pours out of you.

We are full responsable

Nothing outside of us imposes Life as we write it.
Only we can impose ourselves all things, good or bad.

Who said perfection is the goal?

Who said perfection is the goal?
The goal is to understand that we are the first and last opportunity of accepting and enjoying WHAT WE ARE without masks.
That's what we should focus on.
Inner peace happens when we do so...

The supreme challenge of accepting

Do not waste Life hurting yourselves and hurting the others just because one day a gesture of rejection created in you a shell of thorns that will not let you live and be happy.

Make Life Great!

Life becomes small when it is not lived on the present moment.
Life becomes small when it is made ​​of desires never achievable in real time.
We make a life small when we fill it with illusions of great things that do not exist.
Make Life GREAT!

Control your inner beast

We all have our inner beast, an unsatisfied beast fueled by duality between our desire to be happy and the fear of not succeed it.
Many believe that the serenity and peace of mind is achieved when we eliminate this beast.
But the truth is that it is almost impossible to do it and that we need the strength of that inner beast to live.
So what we have to do is to lose the fear of this beast so that it does not jeopardize our project of happiness.
We must lose that fear and put that beast at our service so that our happiness is even bigger.

Seduce the positive

Do not live in order to make the others like you.
Live to learn to enjoy every detail of your being.
Try only to seduce what brings the positive into your Life.

What kind of biography is yours?

Do not let what does not make you tremble, sweat, laugh, love to be part of your biography.

Why dream and live small ?

We often reduce the size of our dreams.
It seems that we are already too pleased with what we are, with what we live.
We have immense possibilities, stir desires within us are infinitely large, we have
huge capacities and plenty of opportunities to fulfill our dreams during our Life.
So why dream and live small?

The immensity of our inner space

We may be limited on the outside but when we live intensely and fully, our memories will prove that space within us is immense ...

A fully life without questions

Who finds himself no longer needs to ask more questions.
Just grabs this discovery and builds a fully Life.

Moments painted with your favorite colors

Life is made ​​of moments.
So always paint those moments with your favorite colors.

How far is your heart from you?

Have you ever stopped to wonder how far is your heart from you?

Just be an awaked person

Do not waste time trying to find "the truth" or "the meaning of life".
Devote yourselves to live as intensely as possible in the "here and now".
Do not waste time cultivating a super human personality or trying to earn the heaven, but to discover how to be fully human.
When a priest asked Buddha if he was a god, a spirit or an angel he replied: "Nope, I'm just an awaked person!"

Don´t seek , live!

There are people who seek happiness throughout life and there are happy people who seek to live fully every day

It's not worth crying too much

Everyone, without exception, has experienced disappointment.
But when that happens we must fight on and invent a new dream, a new hope.
It's not worth crying too much, because there is always something good to think about.
And the truth is that some of these good things happen in our Life ...

Accept the questions of your Life

What really tires us are not the questions that inevitably arise in our lives.
What tires us is the blindness and the tendency of wanting only the answers that interest us, instead of accepting those questions ...

Dare to cross the unknown

There are moments in Life when we must leave and forget about the paths that lead us always to the same places.
There are moments in Life when we must cross the unknown.
And who does not dare to make this journey through the unknown at least once in Life will certainly live forever outside of himself.

Breathe and live

Listen to your breath and know that the Universe is cooperating with you.
Breathe and know that you are the world.
Breathe for yourself and for the world, inspire for compassion and expire for joy.
Breathe so that your life be calm.
Breathe to renew every cell, breathe to renew the depths of your consciousness.
Breathe and live in the here and now, breathe and everything you touch will be new and real.

The enchantment is the right measure

The importance of what happens in our Life can not be measured with a tape measure or with a weighing scale.
The importance of what happens in our Life must be measured by the enchantment that it produces in us.

All "unic" , all "best"

Experience life with the whole body, with all the soul!
At least for me it's the only way to live life.
All "unic" and "best"!
And I like it so much that I do not want to change the way i live.

Reinvent your life

We must often reinvent the way we live our life.
Because if we want to live our life with a little comfort in our soul there must be laughter, there must be faith, the poetry of the affections and a fresh look.
And above all, we must have lot´s of creativity.

We are like clay

It's good to reborn and understand what have changed in us.
The breadth of our being is infinite and we are shaped by our daily joys and sorrows.
We are like clay, and it´s our experiences that give us our exact form.

Soul mates

Today ,more than ever, I know that we can only share certain experiences of the soul (even without saying a word), with persons of the same race.
And when I talk about race, I'm not talking about the color of the skin ,of the eyes, or hair.
I'm talking about the indescribable kinship of the soul.

Master Time

We spent a lifetime complaining about time that runs to fast.
We have to change the role of time in our life.
Think about time as a symbol of what was really worth and worths in your life.
Think about time as a master who teaches us to wait, deletes the ephemeral and ends with our doubts.

Give the world the best in you

Do not claim to fix everything that is wrong in the world.
Instead try to give to the world all the best in you.

The real path

The path is simply to be who we are, to be able to recognize what is the most appropriate for us in Life.
It is to have gratitude for being alive and willing to live the reality just as it is.

Think Positive

Our thoughts are more powerful than generally believed.
Hence the need for a creative and constructive use of this power.
Think positive!

Be selective in your life

Everything that happens in our life happens with our permission, knowingly or not.
It is time to allow just what makes us righteous and true.

Happiness is a simple feeling

People seek happiness.
However, when they think they have found it they forget that happiness is a simple feeling.
It is precisely because they did not realize the simplicity of happiness,that happiness runs away...

Stones on the road

Fernando Pessoa , a famous Portuguese poet, wrote:
"Stones on the Road? I keep them all. One day I will build my castle."
But we must pursue.
It's all part of the new horizons opening up before us.
Stones on the Road?
Keep them all to build a solid base for your castle so that it is firm, at the size of your dreams.

The measure of happiness

Most people are as happy as they believe they are.
This is the only measure of happiness.
So the more you believe you´re happy , more happier you will be!

Happy opportunists

The happiest people are not those with the best things.
The happiest people are those who know how to grab the opportunities that life offers them to be happy.

The debugger effect of "shipwrecks"

Always remember that after all the storms and shipwrecks in life, what remains of us is increasingly essential and true.

Be proud of your Life

Get the most out of Life throughout each day of the new year.
I hope you see amazing things and that you feel things you have never felt before.
I hope you meet people with a different point of view.
I hope you have a Life that you can be proud of.
And if you're not proud of it, I hope you can find the strength to start all over again.
