A Wondering Soul and a Mind Observer – VI – The Lost Light
Who are we? And what do we represent? What will be the name of our time in the list of literature periods? Did we lose the way and why did those who were before us succeed in understanding the beauty and meaning of life while they were far away from what we discovered until this moment?
We lost the way and we are living in darker ages than those that were in the times of those who lived before us. We are great in matters of exploring space and developing scientific findings that make everything simpler and more complicated but we forgot about exploring who we are and describing the
A Wondering Soul and a Mind Observer – II
It is a wondering soul that I have but observing my mind is like a navigation that leads it to paradise. Oh Paradise, a place where everything is perfect and nothing is missing. It’s a place that we make it hard to reach even though it exists in each one of us, in every action we do and in every moment we succeed in being our own before we become other’s.
It is usually surprising for us when we know that in the hard times we live we usually achieve and save for the good times to come. One of the most
Lessons in Leadership XLVI – Poor Rich Fellow Human
Poor he is not of material but of the knowledge to find his way in the mad world that his mankind created for him. He is poor and lost in a world that he formatted with excellence and great skill. Anxiety is what leads him into the darkness that he defined it according to his dictionary as an undesired place.
Weakness is what he brings with him to this world on the day he is born. Lost he is when being a child, a revolutionary in his young age and a childish old man in his winter. Fool enough not to understand the world he created is what describes him.
Lessons in Leadership XLIV – Mysterious Thoughts
If we are the tools of change then what is change exactly? We work and work to make a change and all what we care for is the result that comes in the end…this result we see in a picture for a moment or two then we forget it, underestimate its importance and move forward to search for something else to “Change”.
A journey is our life that we fill with attempts to reach an end…an end is what we always fear but desire at the same time. We live the end for a short time then we lose this satisfaction that we can never get enough from. All of what we do while we are working to achieve something turns to become an
Lessons in Leadership XLIII – Life Seasons
Life is a comedy and a tragedy…a theatre with actors that some of them are Professionals while others are Amateurs. A play is our life but we forget about this because with time we change from being actors to become part of the play and get stuck in it forever.
Ironically we are given the play that we need to be part of without choosing…commonly this is called destiny…Each one of us has a destiny that is decided, a birth that we remember nothing from, a spring that we spend being taught how to accept “reality”, a summer that we spend working hard
Lessons in Leadership XLII – Imaginatio
Our Imagination is what determines the meaning of everything we have in our life…Our Imagination is what determines what is the meaning of life…but what do we do for our imagination? We fought it since the beginning of our life and we prefer to replace it with what we call reality; that is the imagination of those who succeeded to make their imagination something that we consider reality.
If we have dreams we depress them by telling ourselves that they are dreams! We master our mind in a way that prevents it from expanding its limits and we
Lessons in Leadership XLI – A light that brings a Shelter
We humans are fragile creatures but our first mistake is admitting this weakness…we prefer not to say that we are weak and would spend our short life[singlepic id=571 w=320 h=240 float=right] in proving for others before ourselves that we are “strong”…such a waste of time..
We build walls and create several personalities for ourselves only to prove that we good enough without learning the truth of who we are and our nature. Then when we reach our winter we understand that we spent a whole life for nothing except of defending others’ values and protecting others’ teachings that had nothing to do with us. It is the fear of change that prevents most of us from going forward or trying to create something new.
Lessons In Leadership XXXX – Timing
Everything we do is part of something we want to achieve; things that would be normal and simple only to make us live or other things that are achieved on[singlepic id=545 w=320 h=240 float=right] the long term. One important thing that must be considered is time and whether it is really important or not.
Good Timing and Bad Timing, Early and Late…when and how and which is the best moment that we can make our decision at. We think when we say that there is a good and bad timing that there is a magical or unknown source of interference that allows us to succeed or fail; a typical behavior of humans that started many years ago when the Gods were supposed to give signs so people would know whether to go to war or love or do business.
