It is all about that ... Meaning

 "He who has a WHY to live can go through almost any HOW."

Nietzsche

In addition to faith, thought and will, there is a powerful driving force that unleashes the enormous potential of the person.This is the MEANING.

People need a reason to live, they need to see the meaning of their existence.

Meaning is not related to the accumulation of wealth and material goods. Often very rich and oversatisfied children experience a sense of futility and turn to drugs and other short-term pleasures to quell this feeling of emptiness.The reason people become depressed due to unemployment is not only the fear of misery, but also the feeling of uselessness and meaninglessness. When these people find something useful, they begin to see the point, and the depression disappears, even though their financial situation has not improved. The situation is the same with pensioners. When they retire and stay home, and their children have taken their own path and no longer need them, the elderly suddenly give up. And not because they are too old and sick, but because they begin to feel useless and do not find meaning to stimulate them.

When we find meaning, it strongly motivates and inspires us, gives us strength to pass in all circumstances, to overcome difficulties, to deal with pain and fear. Having" for what",we can go through all " how".

 I have always been impressed by the power of the human spirit when people face an unbearable destiny that cannot be changed (left crippled, lost all their loved ones, suffering from incurable diseases, etc.) ), turn their suffering into triumph and achieve things considered impossible.

If they all had a purpose, they saw a reason to continue, they found meaning in their existence even in the most difficult and limiting circumstances.

The need to discover meaning is very well reflected in the book "The Meaning of Life" by Victor Frankl.In this book he recounts his experiences in a brutal concentration camp. There, all circumstances come together to make the camper lose support. All known goals in life have been snatched.

 Dr. Frankl himself lost all - property, his family, his mother, his wife, his brother died in the camps, sent to the gas furnaces.

Despite the indescribable experiences - pain, hunger, hopelessness and uncertainty, there was only one thing that could restore a person's foundations - this is some future goal to strive for - something to fight for, something worth living for. 

For some of the campers it was the thought of a loved one waiting for them outside, for others it was some work waiting to be completed, for others, precious memories of the past.

Only those who saw no point in continuing were doomed.

In fact, these experiences led Dr. Frankl to the discovery of logotherapy. Unlike psychoanalysis, which focuses on one's past and freeing oneself from negative feelings and old patterns, logotherapy focuses on the future, and more specifically on finding meaning.

In his work as a psychiatrist, Dr. Frankham often asked his patients a shocking question: "Why don't you kill yourself?"

The answers gave him the opportunity to find guidelines for his therapy and to weave the thin threads of things important to the individual into a healthy tissue of meaning and responsibility.

Undoubtedly, the discovery of meaning is a force that can help us cope with illness, go through trials and fly forward.

But what is the meaning of our lives?

The meaning of life is something very individual. In addition to being different for each person, it changes and is different in different periods of life.

Meaning never ceases to exist.

Every situation is a challenge to a person, and in all circumstances, no matter how miserable and difficult they may be, meaning can be found.

Logotherapy points out three ways in which we can discover the meaning of our lives:

- Through creative work or doing work.

- By experiencing something or meeting someone.

- Through the attitude we perceive in the inevitable suffering.

The third way is one of the most important to understand, because often in difficult hopeless situations we stop seeing meaning.

And meaning can be found even in suffering.

 Dr. Frankl writes:

"There are situations in which a person is deprived of the opportunity to do his job or enjoy his life, but what can never be eliminated is the inevitability of suffering. By accepting the challenge of suffering bravely, life has meaning until its last moment and retains that meaning literally to the end. In other words, the meaning of life is unconditional, as it includes even the possible meaning of inevitable suffering. "

How to find the Meaning?

We often ask: "What is the meaning of life?" And expect someone to answer, but we actually have to ask ourselves that question.

Of course, the existence of life in general has a deeper meaning, each person has a mission and contributes something to the development of the universe.

But here I am talking about finding concrete meaning at every moment.

It is our responsibility to discover the meaning of our existence at every moment of life.

What could be the meaning of our lives?

What makes our lives meaningful does not have to be something big and great. The point is not even to fulfill our desires or get pleasure.

Meaning is more of an inner feeling that fills us, it is satisfaction and makes us feel grateful, it is the thing that makes us feel alive.

People most often find they see meaning in:

- Love.

- Creativity and scientific work.

- Children or caring for loved ones.

- Spiritual and personal development.

- The activities that make us feel satisfied - helping others, passing on experience and knowledge.

- Setting a specific goal, etc.

Remember, however, that meaning never ceases to exist, both in a concrete life plan and on a deeper level.

It is constantly changing according to the situation.

Think about it - what is it that fills you, that gives you hope and desire for life, that makes you feel satisfied and full, that makes you happy?

Remember that no matter how hopeless the situation may seem, we can always find meaning.

Victor Frankl, when he is in one of the most terrible concentration camps, Auschwitz, and has nothing to cling to or hope for, he begins to help the campers find meaning in their seemingly lost lives.

It can help to look at life as if years have passed and you are at the end of your earthly journey.

 Now!- look back and think,

 "Was my life meaningful, was there anything to live for?"

 What would you like to say to yourself when that moment comes?..... 

I hope the answer to be - I had all these great meaningful days.

Stob, Bulgaria

As long as you are on earth, as long as you are alive, there is hope.

In the life of every person there are ups and downs, moments of

happiness, moments of ruin and hopelessness ...

 Sometimes the difficult periods are long and painful, as if all the evils of the
world pour one after another. We feel alone, vulnerable and abandoned.
Trouble befalls us, for which we are absolutely unprepared.

Then we must remember that even in the most hopeless situation there
is salvation, that sometimes life turns the most unexpected and the
successful outcome is before our eyes. We just have to see it. The bad
that happens to us may turn out to be the best for us over time.The
important thing is to be patient and not give in to despair and
self-destructive behavior. Let's wait patiently for the clouds to
disperse.

There once lived a fabulously rich man. But even though he had

everything on earth, he was unhappy. He was always sad and thoughtful
and even looked like a sick person. He went to famous and
distinguished doctors, but they found him absolutely healthy and saw
no reason for his constant sadness. The rich man tried all sorts of
things to feel happier - he traveled the world,he started more and
more new activities, went to study with famous sages. Nothing helped.

He still felt unhappy...

One day he went to a spiritual master for advice.

"The problem is," said the teacher, "that you don't share your wealth
and success."  As far as I hear, you have never given even
alms to the poor. If you want to be happy, help others."

This was already something new! 

The rich man rejoiced and thought,
"After all, why not sacrifice some of my wealth for the poor and the
needy. If that's the solution to my problem, great! ”

But he soon realized that this task was not so easy.
Since he wasn't used to giving for something he didn't benefit
from, he didn't even know who to start with. Yes, many people did look
poor, but whether they were really poor or pretending, he thought.

 On
the other hand, those who really need help may be ashamed of their
poverty and hide it from pride.

"No, I should not give to anyone I come across ... They may turn
out to be unworthy people to use what i give them for some bad deed," the rich man
concluded.

A way had to be found to show him who the people really
needed were. He thought, thought, and finally he was enlightened.

" I
will give  to people who have lost all hope. This is the real
misery!"

He went around shelters, prisons, streets and poor houses. But, alas!
He spoke to many people - sick, lonely, elderly, beggars, ruined and
abandoned by all people.

 But no one got the answer: 

"I have no hopeanymore!"

And so, as he walked the streets, one day he heard a long
moan coming from some dilapidated house. He immediately set out, and
among the ruins he found a man in tattered clothes, all covered with
wounds, dirty and desperate. The unfortunate man seemed to be at his
limit.

- What happened to you? The rich man asked anxiously.

"Oh, don't ask ..." cried the unfortunate man. - Great trouble befell
me. I lost everything I had - my job, my home, my family, my money. I
don't even have anything to put in my mouth. I took shelter in this
old dungeon, but from the dirt now I got sick from some disease and
I'm all in wounds ...

"Can I ask you something, man?" - The rich man immediately came to
life. "Do you have hope?"
- Of course I have! As long as I am on earth, until I go to the grave,
I have hope. You know, remember one thing: Only those who are in the
cemetery have only hope!

The cemetery ?! the rich man repeated. If only those who are in the
cemetery have no hope, then I must give to them! 

Well, it's
true that it's not the same as helping the poor, but I can try. At
least I will be sure that what I give will not fall into the wrong
hands.

He waited for the night, picked up a bag of money, and headed for the
cemetery. He dug up the first grave he came across and buried the
money in it. And suddenly he felt better. It was as if a stone had
fallen from his shoulders. He finally found someone who had no hope.

Some years have passed. The rich man forgot about this period of his
life and about the bag of money buried in the grave. And he might
never have remembered this again if his life hadn't turned 180 degrees.

The time came when his success and wealth turned their backs on him.
At first he lost a small part of his possessions, then suffered a more
serious defeat and finally was completely ruined. He suddenly found
himself on the brink of poverty. He no longer had a roof over his head
or even anything to eat. Then you remembered the buried money.
That was his last hope! As many years ago, he waited until midnight
and headed for the cemetery with a shovel in his hand. He found the
grave and started digging. Suddenly he heard a voice behind him:

- Do not move! Slowly put down the shovel and stand up!

He carried out the orders and found himself face to face with the city guard.
"So you came in the middle of the night to steal from the dead!" shouted
the guard.

The poor man tried to explain something, but lost his mind and his
words out of fear and panic. He was taken to prison and taken to court
the next day. The once rich and successful man now stood poor and
despised, like an ordinary criminal, before a judge.

He himself realized that his story sounded ridiculous and that it was
almost impossible to believe him, but the only thing he kept repeating
were the words of that wretched man from the dilapidated house many
years ago: "While I'm on earth, until I go to the grave, I have hope.
"
After hearing the accusation, the judge turned to him and asked him:

- What can you say in your excuse?

"Your Honor, things are not as they seem." I did not want to rob the
graves of the dead. Many years ago, I buried some money in this grave
because I was looking for a person who had no hope left. Then I wanted
to donate to someone really in need, but I never found a person
who had lost the last drop of hope.

And one day, among some ruins, I
met a poor and fallen man, all covered with wounds. He had lost
everything, but to this day I remember his words that only those in
the cemetery have no hope. So I buried the money in a grave. But now I
myself have fallen out and decided to take them back.
"I'm sorry, Your Honor," the guard said, "but this man is obviously
lying." I have never heard anything more absurd than that. Do you
believe him?

"Yes, I believe him," the judge said, looking sympathetically at the
defendant. "This man is telling the absolute truth." Let him go.

When he was free, the former rich man walked happily down the street,
breathing fresh air and forgetting about all his troubles.
How lucky that this judge believed me! By the way, his face is very
familiar to me ... Where have I met him before? He thought.

"How does life turn ..." the judge thought after releasing the
defendant. "I will never forget the face of that man who asked me so
insistently if I had 

HOPE 

“There is neither happiness nor misery in the world; there is only the comparison of one state with another, nothing more. He who has felt the deepest grief is best able to experience supreme happiness. We must have felt what it is to die, that we may appreciate the enjoyments of life.
" Live, then, and be happy, beloved children of my heart, and never forget, that until the day God will deign to reveal the future to man, all human wisdom is contained in these two words, 'Wait and Hope.”

The forgoten history of the old symbols - "Elbetitca" and the ancient wisdom

 The most popular and ancient motif in Bulgarian embroidery is the Elbetitca ornament that originates from the  old Elbetitca symbol of harmony and power.  Harmony in body, mind, soul and spirit. Power to use these four in the name of the Good in the World.

This is a double cross that marks the eight directions of the world and the most important solar positions - the winter and summer solstices, the spring and autumn equinoxes and the four positions between them. These eight rays are crossed in a stable center and symbolize the cycle in nature and the world. Elbetitca is a female word also connected with the Mother Goddess and the Earth planet. ( in other cultures later in time named Pachamama) 

In essence, this ornament is one of the most ancient images of the solar calendars and exists as a symbol in almost all major ancient religions.

The element "elbetitca" has remained as a motif in the embroidery of the people who still inhabit the lands where the old Bulgarians (proto-Bulgarians) settled for a long time and created states.

Unlike modernity, in ancient times the decoration (embroidery) on clothes, towels, carpets, had not only decorative and aesthetic value and purpose. Her motifs encoded messages of harmony in the family, home and community, it contained symbols of health, fertility and prosperity.

Elbetitca has an energetic (magical) protective function and protects from diseases and bad influences (envy, shaytayan eyes, etc.) the person who wears it on his clothes.

Embroidered on face and hand towels and tablecloths (mesals), it is designed to preserve harmony, love, prosperity and the multiplication of the  family or the clan. This symbol has the same role when it is woven into the carpets or depicted on the ritual holiday breads.

Elbetitca is also depicted on votive and tombstone stone crosses, which are still found in the Bulgarian lands.

Тhe Еlbetica figure appeared in the Middle East, Anatolia and the Balkans during the Neolithic. It participates in the sign systems of the following epochs and reaches our days in the Bulgarian traditional culture as a carpet and embroidery motif, the figure has different names and its roots are mysterious. Its meaning can be defined as elem-beht - the first-eight, ie the eight directions in one, or rodjeta, and also with many other names for which scientists are looking for clarification.

There are various theories about the symbolism woven into this symbol. Generally speaking, the elbetica symbolizes harmony.

The two crosses conditionally represent the four main and the four additional directions of the world (north, south, west, east, northwest, northeast, southwest, and southeast), merging into a common stable center that keeps them in sync.In the different ways of making the elbetica, four heads are arranged around a middle image, separated by four plant forms.

The original purpose of the jewelry and in particular of the metal buckles on the belts of the women's Bulgarian folk costume is similar.

They were worn as protection precisely in the places of the human body through which it was believed that unclean forces and spirits could penetrate.

These are almost the same places, called chakras by far  South Eastern people, and through which, according to them, the exchange between human and cosmic energy takes place.

This is how the idea of ​​the cycle of nature is interpreted - winter - north, summer - south, spring - east, autumn - west.

The double cross (elbetitca) was later most often embroidered on priestly clothes, placed on orders that were only for privileged rulers (ruler's rings are usually decorated with a cross, fire lilies, mosaic icon, inscription "Ex oriente lux "-" From the east is the light "). The root of the symbol is attested in the first Bulgarian kingdom tradition, where the title bagatur was found. Then the symbol was used as an embodiment of power.

The Colors

The embroideries are depicted in different colors, each of which has a certain symbolism.

Red

Blood and war - peace and love.

It symbolizes the mother's blood and new life. Beware of lessons and spells.

Green

Mother Earth - the new life.

An expression of eternal life and associated with the Tree of Life - a symbol of the universe.

White

Purity - youth, innocence.

It means purity, inviolability, youthful innocence and God's light.

Blue

The sky and the sea - perfect purity.

It depicts the sky, space and water. It embodies truth and trust, purity, serenity and contemplation. He is the color of angels.

Yellow - gold

Sun - joy and merriment.

Brown 

Mother Earth - winter.

Elbetitsa is a symbol symbolizing harmony and understanding, also known as the rosette.

 Over time, it has been modified and highly stylized, significantly changing its original appearance and becoming our well-known Elbetitca, or  The double star. The rosette is associated with reverence for the sun and contains a message of health, prosperity and blessings. In the culture of the proto-Bulgarians we find the Elbetitca in the title "bagatur" as a symbol of strength and power. The name comes from the phrase elem-beht, which means the first eight, ie. the eight directions of the world.

Another magical symbol is the Kanatitca - the symbol of the family which we can look at ...the next time :) 

"Silence is of different kinds, and it breathes different meanings"

Many of us live in a world where silence and stillness are not only absent but deliberately avoided.

The devices restrict silence and break the silence with music, ringing, social media and many other seemingly small things that do not give us rest. All the time! If we add to this the city noise, as well as everything we hear during work, the cacophony will become complete.

As we become more attached to our devices, we crave something to watch, to listen to, to be distracted when a moment of boredom comes.

These constant demands of modern life burden the prefrontal cortex, which is involved in problem solving and decision making. This leaves our resources for attention exhausted, we get mentally tired and feel less creative in general.

Even 60 minutes of complete silence allow the brain to recover almost completely

Also, a study by Imke Kirste, a regenerative biologist at Duke University, found that two hours of silence a day stimulated the development of cells in the hippocampus, the brain area involved in memory formation.

Silence is important for our overall health.

We think that if we work without interruption we will achieve the best results. However, we forget to learn from the wisdom of others before us - scientists, inventors and spiritual leaders who reached their "Eureka!" Surrounded by pure silence.

"Silence is a source of great power" - Lao Tzu

"I try to think 99 times a day and almost nothing happens. I stop thinking, I surround myself with silence and stillness, and the truth comes to me ”- Albert Einstein

Silence is golden

That is why wise people advise us to observe in silence more often, to listen and to speak less often. Since ancient times, it was believed that silence was the best remedy for various mental illnesses. According to Pythagoras, the highest state of mind is silence.

People who engage in spiritual practices (from ancient times to the present day) learn to limit speech and live as quietly as possible to find peace, clarity of thought, inner harmony, and enlightenment of the mind.Active silence is still used today in medical and psychological practice. This is based on the fact that in case of serious illness a person becomes very silent. Constant chatter makes it difficult for the body to concentrate on recovery. Silence is one of the best treatments for neuropsychiatric disorders. The fact is that when a person is very ill, he prefers to remain silent. In this way he keeps his strength and recovers.

Of course, it is difficult to remain silent when we are constantly distracted by something

It is best to go to a place where no one will bother us, to be distracted by TV or telephone. Under such conditions, man is completely immersed in himself, and the only thing he feels is nature. It is important in such moments to focus on bright and positive thoughts and feelings. Russian psychotherapist Galina Tymoshenko notes that the health of the body significantly improves after three days of silence, and a whole month spent in silence and silence can solve most of the psychological problems of modern man.

In the first hours of imposed silence, anxiety increases, the desire to speak peaks, but then comes a period of enlightenment, complete peace and tranquility.

Psychologists advise to use silence in families where there are often scandals due to trifles

Galina Tymoshenko

Active silence can be practiced, for example, on weekends, when the husband and wife agree on a time during which communication will take place only with the help of gestures and touch. Gradually, there will be complete unity and merging, which many have lost because of unnecessary and often meaningless conversations. This tool is great for all people and in all circumstances.

A few tips for shhhhh, Im healing - Silence:

1. The best time to observe a "silent fast" is from Saturday morning to Sunday morning.

2. Discuss with your loved ones your desire to remain silent so that they do not worry.

3. Stock up on what you need so you don't have to go out for groceries or medical 

4. During the silent fast there may be times when the desire to say or write something becomes unbearable, but this quickly passes.

5. Do not watch TV and do not read, dedicate the day to yourself.

6. Switch off computers ,phones, laptops.

7. Run, train, bathe, massage, sleep, meditate.

8. Anything that involves contemplation, or walks in nature, helps.

9. In case a neighbor suddenly calls you, you can prepare a note that you are silent today, or if you are uncomfortable, show that you can not speak.

10. If you suddenly forgot and said something, then you should not interrupt everything. Keep silent for the time you have planned.

Silence builds the power of persuasion

That is why it is good to practice silent fasting before an important event - an exam, a speech or negotiations. The silence for at least a day will allow the mind and nerves to rest completely. After a regular day of silence, you will begin to feel as if you have been on vacation for a week.

Silence heals

The ancient healers knew this, and now science is beginning to catch up, proving the healing power of silence. The simple but powerful experience of silent fasting may be exactly what you need most right now.

Why not try it?  

Shhhhhh!

Love - the alchemical stone of the pillars of Life

 Gratitude gives a person the strength to endure all adversity in life, no matter how great it is:

 When we are grateful, with gratitude we cover our shortcomings, adversity and bear them more easily.

The law of  the Good is as follows: 

If you give thanks for the little Good, the great Good will come; if you give thanks for the great Good, even greater will come.

The law of evil is the opposite:

If you give thanks for the little evil, less evil comes; if you do not give thanks for the little evil, greater evil will come.

When you give thanks for the Good, it grows. When you thank  the suffering, it goes away.

When you do not give thanks for the Good, it goes away. When you do not give thanks for suffering, it stays and grows. These are the four laws of Nature.

Be happy with the little one. If you have a grain of wheat or a matchstick, be happy with them too. One grain of wheat can produce 30, 60 or 100 grains.With a match you can light a large fire to warm yourself and cook food for many people. - What to do with a grain of wheat? "Sow it in the ground." - What to do with a match? "Light a fire."

Whoever thinks correctly, puts the stick where the fire is easily ignited. 

To help the burning, he blows. Thus it brings in more air and intensifies the combustion. Blowing fire implies directing the thought where something valuable can be acquired.

If you are unhappy with yourself, can you expect other people to be happy with you?You are dissatisfied with yourself - you cooked a bad meal. If you are unhappy with your eating, other people will not be happy either. The measure of things is man himself.

Who is happy with his thoughts, and his loved ones will be happy. Whoever is not happy with himself, the whole world to convince him that he is a genius, he will not agree with them.

All people are geniuses, but mainly in one respect - in their mistakes.

Everyone is a genius when he breaks and spoils things. Who hasn't broken a plate? Everyone is a genius at this. However, when it is said to make a new plate, the one was not a genius. It is time for people to start working consciously, to show their genius.

Three things are necessary for a person: right thought, right feelings and right speech. Once he acquires these things, he becomes happy.

Therefore, one who wants to be happy must first learn to speak well, then to think and feel right.

Right thought strengthens memory, strengthens health. The same is achieved with the right feelings and the right speech.No one can be happy if his thoughts, feelings and speech are not right.

Right thought, right feeling and right speech are a science that is achieved through hard work.

It will be studied for centuries and millennia, and something unscientific will remain.

As pleasant as it is to eat, so pleasant it is to study the science of right thought, right feeling, and right speech.

What is the task of the  modern man (understand human)? 

The task of each person is to create a head that is a good conductor of light; to create a heart that is a good conductor of warmth; to create a body that will be a good conductor of the good forces in the nature.

Everyone needs a bright mind, a warm heart and a healthy body.

In order to be "born again" or  "renew" the self , one must do everything with Love.

 "Why?" - Because only Love straightens things.

When you love, you know how to act. Whatever you give, you will give with Love. If you bear fruit, you will give the best you have.

If you say a thought, it will be the best you have. If you give a feeling, it will be the best. Who will not thank for the best that is given to him?

What people expect from life, they cannot have without love. Love is the alchemical stone. It is the Love that opens all doors.

So, if you want to stand up, to achieve your desires: Put love as the basis of your life.

Love is long-suffering, does not envy, does not seek its own, is not irritated, etc.

Some people want to acquire these qualities of life without love. It is impossible.

First of all, one must place Love as the basis of one's life. Love must flow into life as a great condition, and then Life will come with all its qualities that we want to develop in ourselves.

Then and only then everything in our lives will go  easily, normally and without contradictions.

Choose wisely ...

Choose Love!

The forgoten secrets of life

 One of the greatest shortcomings of humanity is to forget - individually,collectively, historically and culturally we seem to be cursed to forget.

We have forgotten our past 

The place in the present and the responsibility for the future.
On a personal level our ego-possessed consciousness is on a mission to keep us in a state of oblivion.
Collectively, humanity has deviated from its path unconsciously pursuing an inauthentic lifestyle with a materialistic mindset but we can all remember again and connect with the universe as a whole.This power is what leads us on our spiritual path to rediscover ourselves - or in a nutshell - to remember what we have forgotten or what we need to remember.
The place in Nature
In the last few centuries we have become more and more distant from nature, we exploit it, destroy it and try to control it to satisfy our greed.
We try to distance ourselves from the natural cycle of life.We have forgotten how to hear and understand the natural rhythm and cycle of the Earth - its signs and language. With the separation from nature we have forgotten that we are originally connected on a deep level with the eternal cycle of the universe and how the whole consciousness is intertwined and connected in a delicate and mysterious way.
We have forgotten the wisdom of our ancestors. In the search for scientific knowledge we have forgotten the wisdom of the heart. We have forgotten the stories and folklore handed down by the sages of antiquity, who lived in harmony with nature.

The way and the dreams

By deviating from our natural way we have forgotten how to dream about the wonderful dream called life. We have forgotten how to wake up in this dream and realize that we are its creators.
The goal
With too much chatter, noise and things that distract us we have forgotten why we are here. We have forgotten our goal. We have lost our authenticity - this inner spark that gives us the will to build our happiness and self-realization.
After believing that we are different, separated, divided from everyone and from everything we forgot to forgive, we forgot that we all move in one dynamic network called life.
Freedom
Remind to self one thing every day. You are born to be free. We are born and raised in an atmosphere and environment, in a reality in which freedom is only a concept. We are in the shackles of fear, false ideologies, material rewards, and the rules of those who guard the interests of a few.
The real power

Fear is to make us forget what power we have. we have forgotten the great power of will and our ability to create and change realities.We are in a trance. We follow the instructions and it is now a time to change.
The lessons of history.
If there is one thing that history teaches it is how quickly we have forgotten the lessons we have learned. We repeat the same mistakes over and over again and we cannot be blamed individually for the mistakes of humanity but we as individuals have a responsibility to make sure they don't happen again.
Human life is becoming more complex and confused, we are blinded by the brilliance of the "more" and not by the power of the "less".
Life is really simple. To get rid of all things and ideas that have no real value and stop our eyes on our true purpose.
The Trust, Faith and humiliation of the world.
We have lost the magic and curiosity in ourselves. We have forgotten what it is like to be amazed by the miracle called life. Skepticism and cynical views have wiped the faith in ourselves and in the magic of the universe.We have forgotten how to believe- this is perhaps the greatest tragedy. It weakens the spirit and robs the soul.
Let's remember again how good it is to be human.

“There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.”
― Albert Einstein
