Proudly Humble
Silent screams, the inaudible murmurs of those who ask for help from themselves. There are days when trying to see the sun is useless; the black storm clouds do not dissipate. Rain falls on our faces in the form of tears, and painful lightning strikes our chest. No matter how much wind the storm seems to bring, it comes without air, an air that is missing with every breath of our being.

No one commands the soul
No one commands the soul. It stays where it is enchanted." A quote by Fernando Pessoa that fascinates me. I have always been a human being who lived through the soul, through feeling, and I always stopped where I was enchanted. I have never wished for something defined by physical or intellectual ideals. I have always been fascinated by the details of simple things, those things that few people notice and most ignore. This is true for people and everything else. I have always made my soul the compass of my heart, even knowing that it is not infallible and that it has often hurt me by leading me to paths and places that caused me pain. But I realized that everything works in a greater consciousness, that every path that leads to something magical has inhospitable places disguised as wonderful gardens. If it weren't like this, we wouldn't be able to see everything from different perspectives, and we wouldn't be able to put the best virtues of our essence into practice.

Galaxy of Love
If I don't fight for you, who will I fight for? You were imprinted on my being even before I was a person here. Everything made sense because it made me feel that authenticity when the soul vibrates. Just one more life, maybe... but this unique feeling is not limited to one life; it is a feeling of existence. It traverses time, space, and any dimension; it is a feeling that is not limited to what can be explained but mainly to what cannot be explained and yet makes so much sense.

The weak condemn
Forgiveness is the greatest virtue of the strong: those who, even in pain, choose to forgive instead of condemning those who cause them that same pain. Who is stronger than Jesus himself, who, in a moment of extreme pain, forgave and even asked the Father to forgive them, for they did not know what they were doing?

I have the power because I am a superhero!
Victimhood and empowerment are two opposite poles; those who feel like victims have no power, and those who have power cannot feel like victims. These are perhaps two of the few opposite poles where balance does not matter. We cannot be half victims and half empowered; the equation always leans towards the victim because those who cannot attain complete empowerment will always be victims.

Today is Christmas
Today is a day of strong emotions for me. The year that is ending was one of the most enriching and, at the same time, perhaps the most difficult of my life here. It was the year I discovered that magic is real and that the shadow is too, even if we are not always aware of it.

Love of Souls
Many wonder, "Where is the love between people? We live in an era of fast-food relationships, where quantity and speed in changing partners are valued above all else. Shallow relationships where all that is touched are bodies, not even intellect, are part of the equation, as people don't even have time to get to know each other at that level, much less touch each other's souls.

Abandonment is Not Part of Love
There is nothing more painful than suffering emotional abandonment from the people we love the most. It can be cruel to feel invisible and full of questions that never have a valid answer, unless it is something to add to the guilt that we inevitably end up feeling.

Diary of a Struggle
Those who read me may think that I am here to give some advice, to say that this or that is right or wrong. First of all, I am here only as my thoughts, speaking to myself without filters. If there is any advice that I try to give, it is for this imperfect being that I am and never to influence anyone to think or be like me. I know that even being like this, by exposing myself here in a public and accessible place to anyone, I have the responsibility in me to always leave a feeling of hope and faith in every thought, despite often talking about pain.
