What is weird?

Have you ever asked yourself what is weird and what is normal? Where is the line between one or another?



What is weird for you can be considered normal by someone else and vice versa.
And did you notice how we live by thinking what the other thinks about us? of course we shouldn't jump like monkeys all over the place but still...how close we can come together and what treasures we could find inside of us if we would stop repressing so much what we are. are you surprised that people are not natural , that they are fake when they interact with you? are you any different from them? you might not show your bad parts but maybe you cast away your good parts from them...
It's not only things we do but only things we could have done and did not do that should raise questions to us...a smile we could have given to a stranger and brighten their day up ...a meal we could have offered to a helpless person in the street, a bowl of water we could have provided for a dog or cat in the street...a school girl/ boy or old men or whatever who is walking in the cold and we have 3 spots free in our warm and confy car and we could have dropped them somewhere. Why would you not do one of these things?
 Have you not ever had the impulse to do a great thing like this but what others would think of you or the fear stopped you.
If none of these things matter to you ask yourself in what world would you like to live or your kidz and think about it again...
Tonight let's go to sleep being thankful for what we have in our lives rather than crying about what we don't have...


Namaste!

Inside magic

As my love for writing is growing I cannot help myself asking "but ok, what will I write about" ? well what other than experiences that trespass this amazing play of energies and forces and masks and people and fragrances and tastes ...called "my life".

I have to admit, for a couple of weeks now I realized you can have an extremly so called "boring" life on the outside but to experience a whole universe happening right there inside of you. Being pissed at someone I was trying to put myself in this person's shoes to see if I can understand why that person is behaving like that and why is it so difficult for me to accept. And what a surprise I had...how could I put myself in that person's shoes when I did not even look at me so far to see what is going on in me and why I am reacting the way I am reacting to these types of situations. Little did I know, that what I was actually feeling had nothing to do with that person, all that has been stirred up inside of me was because of conflicts I had with myself.

So, how go back to that peace inside? If you can understand and accept yourself enough you will be able to understand the other person as well and feel compassion towards him/her. Easy to say...hard to do! But aren't the challenges the ones that make us grow our awarness. And as one of my favorite spiritual teacher Wayne Dyer would say : "The person that challenges us the most is nothing but a disguised divine master".
Now ...just try to give it a thought...and see how you feel about it afterwards.

I wish you find your inner wisdom and heal all your hidden or visible wounds!

Namaste!

Focus

I am not a writer, I did not develop any carrer in this direction and I do not expect anything through what I write. The things I write here, come from the heart, from the joy to express and share my experiences with you.You can agree or disagree with the things I write, I'm not here to judge, or to prove I am right about anything.

To get to the point of what I wanted to write about today...

I recently discovered that we as human beings, have a couple of powers (well maybe some have super powers as well :P). And one of them is focus. Have you ever asked yourself why focus is important to us? or to go deeper into this, have you observed how life is without a focus?

Short term , Long term focus is important in order to bring out the 100% our of our actions and therefore to do each thing at a time. I know, great analytical minds will raise their voice and say " screw you, what about multitasking?". From my experience, multitasking is not a good idea. Of course, I can write an email, eat my sandwich, talk to someone over the phone and check the new trends in fashion online, all at the same time. 

Where is the focus in all of this? Don't get me wrong, I really admire people who are really succeeding in doing this. I, however consider it is better to take each activity at one time, and dedicate my full atention, I don't succeed every time, but I try my best. Someone has thaught me recently, that by doing this and not letting myself be involved in the thought process of the mind "how am I going to do this, how am I going to pull this off today??", the consciousness will find it's way and work through us.

And the result of this will be much greater...

I wish you all to find what you are looking for, to be able to establish your priorities in life and focus on the things you want to achieve, therefore giving life a course to flow...

Namaste!
