Dear friends I have not abandoned, I was very taken only for the show: The Choirs from "The Rock" by Thomas Stearns Eliot, the "Theater of the Sky", we presented the island of Capraia and Florence. The title I have chosen today is not accidental, is a book by the Dalai Lama that advice, if not already read it, thank to Alexander, although very late, for his comment that the above is based on well from the master Buddhist. Only if we can eliminate negative mental states such as anger, hatred, aggression, intolerance, greed to embrace behaviors that reflect values \u200b\u200bsuch as kindness and nobility, charity and compassion will reach the goal of peace in our daily lives. With an attitude compassionate, aims to understand who we are, first, breaking down the walls that often arise, little by little, threatening to turn into impregnable fortresses, take the road that leads to happiness. Alexander is right to write that is that we grow in understanding of others, but we need a concerted effort to be able to see beyond his outbursts, as well as wounds caused by the silence that perhaps we ourselves, with our attitudes we have procured. Yet sometimes it takes so little to mend a flawed report, but basically still valid, whether it be love od'amicizia.
We are so taken by our things, work, the daily trials that do not have the time to stop and look into the eyes of someone who lies before us, who would like to speak with us, showing us too busy to have time to listen, but she just wants a bit of attention, a gesture of affection, a hug or a pat , love is made of small things, which is enclosed in an immense value. Very little is needed to make a person happy and he's right Follereau Raoul, who dedicated his life to the lepers, who once said: "Being happy is to make people happy."
We are happy to the extent that we succeed in making others happy, but what we give to others we give with love, joy and tenderness, because only then the person who receives a smile, attention, a gesture of affection, a thought, a courtesy ... will appreciate what we give and will feel happy because I loved her. I've already written, but it is worth repeating, what really matters in life is "love" and as Herman Hesse says "happy is he who knows how to love."
Just last night, a birthday dinner, a dear friend told me that he greatly appreciated the thoughts of Hesse who had written the article "Be happy," were the hits when he needed it, at a particular time of life, I dedicate with affection these phrases from "The Prophet" by Kahlil Gibran:
When you love you should not say "God is in my heart, "but
" I am in the heart of God. "
And do not think you can direct the course of love, because love
,
if it finds you worthy, directs your course.
Love gives naught but itself and takes naught
if not by himself.
Love possesses not nor would it be possessed, for love is sufficient unto love
. When we love
commit to love with all my heart, infused with a pure and sincere feelings, only then we will be sure to "be in the heart of God."
