I don't remember for how long I have been searching for meaning in my life. I do not remember how many times I have looked at the night sky searching for an answer for a question I do not know.
The time has gone like water runs through an insignificant leak. It goes drop by drop, seemingly worthless to even be noticed. But every drop falls and doesn't come back, the water that flows through that leak cannot be used again, just like the seconds of my life, the ones that run through without me even saying good bye.
Today I searched again, and realized one very important thing. I thought about why if we were to find out that we are close to die we would be more likely to appreciate life, and every little thing about it, we would find meaning even in despair and in a way we would start to live.
And then I realized that the moment we give up eternal existence to be born we are sentenced to die. Diagnosed with humanity we come to dream and admire the night sky. Does this explain why babies are the angels of this earth? Because they still remember the sentence of death? By living long we forget that this life is just a second before we have to go. How can we not forget about the fragility of life and the importance of experience?
The way I understand it today is that if we gave up eternal existence for a chance to live a couple of tens of years under the sun, this might be a great place to be, the price might be way better than the sacrifice, let's not forget about that.

Writer's Block
Yesterday June 3rd I was not able to write, I did not have something to say, however thanks to my lovely husband I did find something that inspired me and that is exactly how I feel and how I want to feel every day.
I do not see it as a day without writing, I see it as a day where I needed some inspiration.
The name of the piece is "PROMISE TO YOURSELF" and goes like this:
To be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind.
To talk health, happiness and prosperity to every person you meet.
To make all your friends feel that there is something in them.
To look on the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true.
To think only of the best, to work only for the best, and to expect only the best.
To be just as enthusiastic about success of others as you are about your own.
To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future.
To wear a cheerful countenance at all times and to have a smile ready for every living creature you meet.
To give so much time to the improvement of yourself that you have no time to criticize others.
To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and to happy to permit the presence of trouble.
To think well of yourself and to proclaim this fact to the world - no in loud words, but in great deeds.
To live in the faith that the world is on your side so long as you are true to the best that is in you.

Nothing to say
I woke up today and I had nothing to say, nor to write.
Nothing else I was going to post, because to say the truth I am not even sure why I even bother.
But then I started thinking about the fact that one day I will be somewhere else.
And these few words will be my crumble signs that I leave behind.
My toughs and feelings can stay here far beyond the day I breath my last air
For my son and my children of light that need to find me somwhere,
I will be here, day after day in each word and I will too live with hem.
Because I know how it is, to look for someone in the leftovers of memories
To hold on to fantasies and make up stories to find a loved one.
My children of light and my son will not have to make up stories because I am here.
I will be here, even if I have nothing to write.

MYSELF
Rolling like a stone
Never in the same place,
Where is God now?
I seem to be displaced.
Lift me up like a star,
Rock my world with your light.
There is nowhere I really want to be
other than here with myself and I.
So where is God?
Is he a star?
Is he the shine that lights my night?
Perhaps, and just perhaps
He is all those things
And the most beautiful form of myself inside.

Proof ..... If only I could say it
Look into the bright eyes,
Proof that there is more beyond that smile;
A reminder from across the sky
Maybe it is time we take you for a ride.
Hidden faces surround you now,
Just know yourself and you will find;
That the love around you can not leave
Only you can turn your back.
And if you are drowning guess who will dry your back,
That is the question that none asks;
The answer may come across to cold
Because to dry your back, you see there, it is only you.
Just keep on looking through your eyes
Let the message in through the light,
See the vanished fear and shame through the mirror
Grab yourself and get your life
Change your role and don't go back.

The Patterns of Life
Today is Friday, which means that I am posting one of the subjects I put in my original INTRODUCTION back in 2009.
This week is about the patters of life, which is an interesting topic and one of my favorites for so many reasons and maybe a lot of us are able to see these patterns present in all that surrounds us.
When we go to school and come across algebra we cannot immediately see why all those equations and graphs are good for. However when I was in college I was actually able to realize why mathematics is the language of the Universe, or at least so I thought I understood.
I think I even cried one day because I tried to ask an existential question to my MATH teacher expecting an existential answer, and all I got was a math answer, although now that I think about it I wish I could have that recording...I am sure that math answer would make so much more sense now than what it did that day.
The most important thing that I realized about algebra was that you can actually build an equation for a lot of things, and I used to think that you can actually build an equation that will define a person’s life. Such equations depending on the sign, the exponent etc… have different graphs and that those are the waves that we follow every day.
For example when an equation is set, the uniqueness is given by the variable, and the variable for me in this example is us. I say all this to explain how I understand the patterns of life. The patterns like equations exist, however the situations and outcomes are always different, forming a different wave and a different frequency because of the variable that makes the result change. If the equation is set so the graph goes downward slopping, if the variable has an opposite sign it can change the whole of the graph. And that is exactly what happens with humans. We often follow patterns; some of them have been going for generations and generations however we have the ability to change the whole graph by being us.
The theory and philosophy of karma is very extensive, however the main idea is the same, we all carry on data from our ancestors, even communities, countries and even our planet has a karma that has to overcome. This karma is sometimes seen in form of patterns, for example when you go to a bad neighborhood and you see how the same story is repeated generation after generation, until one day one person changes a little or big factor and the whole family evolves.
Karma and patterns are not good or bad; they are just inheritance that have to be overcome so we can continue in the evolution process. So every time you can change a pattern in your life, have in mind that you may not be changing only your life, but your whole descendant’s future, and even your family, community, country and even our planet.
There is a method called recapitulation, in which you, by entering meditation go through some stages in your life, and as an spectator you can see a different perspective and sometimes you can actually see this patterns throughout your life. Some also call this archetypes, however the most amazing thing is that even though there are patterns, the human factor just creates a whole new thing. The way I see it, human consciousness is the beginning of the expansion in the universe. My theory is that by overcoming these patterns, and releasing karma it is the way to activate our DNA and unlock what is really hidden within, what has been covered by the dust of history. It is the big 8 lying down….. The serpent biting its own tail….

Utopia
We live in a time where we just know that Comunism has failed. But what if Marx was not wrong, he probably did the wrong application, but what if he was a visionary and a channel of galactic information. What if he actually saw the future in where there was no need for competition because our consiousness would be in a more advanced state where there would be no need for that. After all he did say that capitalism would take us there.
I am saying this because as 2012 approaches I have been a little bit more interested in all the theories around. I have my feet grounded that even tough the events that are happening and will happen are of concern, and might be taken as signals, I also think that they are just part of the change.
Not all the people will survive, not because they are not ready, but because it is not their time. I do not even know if I will be alive, but what I know is that there is so much evidence outside and even in our own world to ignore the fact that the shift is not only physical, but it is mostly spiritual and at a conssiousness level.
My theory is that all the turmoil of our days is just an externalization of the global consiuosness and a portrayal of our state of mind. The earthquakes mean that change is comming, that we are moving and that there is nothing we can do. The floods and storms mean we need cleansing in an urgent manner. And events of terrorims and the spill in the gulf just mean that no matter how much technology we think we have, or how civilized we assume we are, we still have no respect for oursleves or for the place we live in.
As many warning signs, we should take a hold of our surroundings and not be afraid but to face this time with courage and with determination. We are part of a galactic cycle that is about to end. The mayans left us a map to "enlightment" it is no a joke any more, it is a fact.
In buddhism, when one becomes a buddha (the enlighten one) one creates their own world, and is able to shape all around. I do not think I will see as much in 2012 as much as I would feel. We expect changes to be in our faces to believe, but they do not have to.
There are people all around the world that know about the coming change, we are only a spec in the universe, yet we mean so much. It is time for our planet to start a new stage and it is up to us to decide if we go along for the ride, or help to self destruct. (In every sense of the word)
