And
everything includes –without the list being exhaustive-, losses, physical or
mental disabilities or defaults, fights, including the long term ones, diseases,
heartbreaks, betrayals including from our closest ones, jobless periods, red
budget periods and any other kind of difficulties that we always consider on
the moment, as insurmountable.
None
of the above situations is important compared to the fact of being alive and
having around us these peoples that are dear to us, alive as well.
And
if besides this, you are in a good health, if you can see the sun, the flowers,
the clouds, the people you love, if you can appreciate the smell of the cooking
rice, if you can feel your dog’s hair with your hands, the caress of your
mother, if you can hear the rain fall, the music you like and the voice of your
mother calling you, if you can remind these things that you have lived, if you
can imagine and draw in your mind as in
the reality the ones that you wish to live… and if in addition, you have the
opportunity to be surrounded by caring people who love, trust and believe in
you, then before even planning to complain, learn to remember that if you have
the chance to be alive, it is because Life has planned for you a thousand
chances to face what is still waiting for you on the way in order to allow you
to live your dreams.
So
at each moment of your life, whenever you are playing, breathing, looking at
things or feeling things and emotions, each one of your gestures, each slightest
thing that you feel, see or hear is just the result of the dynamic and move of
billion particles, cells and molecules. And this is the demonstration of one
capital thing : YOU ARE ALIVE!
You
have this wonderful capacity of breathing, to see things, to hear sounds, to
feel emotions, to think, to do things. Living is something so powerfully magic,
fantastic and wonderful that it is, to my perception, the most beautiful gift
to humankind ever. And being aware of this is already an act of gratitude for
it.
As
mother, there are countless times where you made turn mad with your tempestuous
and intense character, doing only what was forbidden. These times my energy was
so low and my tolerance rate so feeble that I ton my brain a billion times
wondering how to make you understand these things I needed you to. There were
times when I even wanted to shake you up a hundred times until you said or did what
you were supposed to answer or to do, and in the way you were meant to do it.
And all these times, the only fact of looking at you so alive (no matter how
important the values or lessons I needed you to understand, and no matter what
top my anger or despair reached at these moments) was enough to remind me that
nothing was more important than just seeing life blossoming through you. In
each one of your mood, emotions, in your laughter and passion, in your flame or
in your sleep, each single one of these moments were proofs of you being alive,
and this is enough to fill me with happiness.
Actually,
to the risk of being treated as bad mother, children may have all the imperfections
and failings of the world, as long as they are alive, happy and having their thoughts
and aspiration matching to their reality, or at least being able to think it,
nothing else in the world can be more important.
When
you have lost some dear ones in your life, sometimes many of them on a short
period, this is a point of view that you understand in a particular way.
This
is why today in my conception of life, there is LIFE. And all the rest is
accessory. ©
