So many people are asking themselves ... what is life about?!
What is the real meaning?!
To have success? To go in expensive vacations?!
To become the owner of a fortune?!
Well ... today i believe that the answer depends only by the lesson of life that the person needs to study during the actual lifetime.
But getting lost ... is just part of the script.
Failing ... also.
Not finding a purpose ... also.
Even losing the hope ... and walking on a pathless path that we name it ... life ... is a process you need to follow to understand life better.
I don’t believe any great philosopher had a happy life ... and also that there is no poet ... that wrote love poems ... meanwhile being happy with his partner.j
Philosophers ... even the great ones ... lived part of their lives in a labyrinth.
The poets ... the same.
Anyone ... who dared to find a meaning ... got lost ... not really understanding what is the best path.
Being lost ... becomes a whole chapter of what we name ... life.
Failing becomes also ... an important chapter ... same as the success story is.
... and you start this process of understanding what is really going on.
The moment when we see that the negative stories, but also the
positive ones ... are having the same motivational values ... but in the same time, both being an illusion ... that is the beginning of a new life ... one when you become an observer ... and live life in harmony with the Universe.
And at one time you will see behind things and events that have a negative impact on you ... a positive message.
Not the times define the people, but the people define the times.
Few days ago i had to visit the school where i spent the first 8th grades.
It was the primary and secondary school.
This time i had to prepare to transfer my son in there.
I had good memories, but also bad ones from there ... and i even delayed few times to go and do the transfer.
The building was looking a little bit different ... cause was totally renovated.
It almost looked like a totally new building, but still i was feeling that nothing changed.
I enter the building and ... surprise ... the director of the school was a lady from the times i was there ... 35 years ago.
She was really young at that time, but now she was more than 55 i suppose.
When communism collapsed i was just starting the 5 th grade ... so half of the time that i spent in there it was in the communism times and half after the communism collapsed.
So ... at enter in her office, explain her what i want to do and she stops me ... saying that ... it’s not about what i want ... but only if she agrees that.
She totally disliked that i said ... “i want” ... but i politely asked her if i should say ... “My desire is ... “.
I lost my temper and could not stop myself to mention that i can still smell the communism i used to know from 35 years ago.
Her secretary, a lady of about 65, could not believe that i was
speaking like that to the director.
But the lady i used to know as a very shy person ... 35 years ago …
lost her temper too.
She said she will call the police ... but to call the police for what?! ... to tell them that we still have the ghost of communism in the building?!
35 years ... and nothing changed.
The only change they had to do ... was the attitude and nothing more.
I left the building ... asking myself why did i decided to come back into that horrible place ... that sometimes was even as a prison, mainly in the communism times.
It was funny that the people decided to hire a teacher from those times to be the director from there.
Maybe they wanted a change ... but still not a big one.
I understood that the message behind the message that somehow ...not the times define the people, but the people define the times.
