#vol 01

Many times, I have thought about my fellow men . l think human beings have a huge responsibility on their shoulders while we are living in this world and we are totally responsible of ourselves. But what is happening to us? We are living in a world that is full of madness, murder, racism, rapists, poverty, wars and slavery. The people who believe in God say all those things that are happening in the world are the devil´s fault. But I don´t believe that. We see our fellow men with scorn and we don´t feel the need to help other human beings.

I think we have to be able to be better. But which are the responsibilities of a human being? How can we become better? Why is the human being totally responsible of himself? So, next, I will give my personal opinion answering those three questions. Human beings have two responsibilities: 1) the development and understanding of his emotional capacities through experience, which is subject to his way of living, as an individual subject. 2) At the same time, human beings have to think in the common good for his fellow men. In my personal opinion, that is the way to become an excellent human being because, if we start to change our thoughts, we will be able to transform into a successful society.

If we give our maximum effort, we will be able to be better. l think it depends on how much we want to improve ourselves as human beings and how well we want to envision our life in society. l think to be better, it is necessary the development of emotions especially love, respect and solidarity. If we achieved this, we will be able to love our fellow men as much as we could imagine and we would feel the need to help others.

I have talked about the development of all those emotions because I think from a perspective without God, human beings have to be totally responsible of themselves. Therefore, if we leave the metaphysical out of this equation, we can´t blame God or the Devil for our negative emotions, bad decisions and inappropriate behaviors. For that reason, we need to be careful with our choices. We must create a deep conscience, finding the differences between the positive and negative things and always choosing emotions that can give us benefits for our fellow men. All this gives us an immense responsibility.

Imagine that in the world we are a few adventurers who dare to travel through worlds the unique and unknown worlds in our imagination. But I have to tell you my dear reader, literature not is only used by your imagination. Reading is also really necessary for my development as an artist, so I will explain the importance of reading for an artist in 3 points of view; from learning, creative development and Art. “If who reads much and walks much sees much and knows much.” 1605 - Miguel de Cervantes – El Hidalgo Don Quijote de la Mancha. Learning is one of the most wonderful things that have happened to me in my life. In my opinion, learning is one of the most important things in our lives because through it we must learn about other cultures and customs and improve our general knowledge. We can make use of all we read to improve as an artist. It is a personal satisfaction also. But it is important to learn because we feel the need and the passion to learn.

In my development as a musician, literature has always helped me. If I want to become an excellent musician, I will be surprisingly creative thanks to all the books that I have read and the stories in them. It has really helped me to develop my creative process because, as a musician, I need a lot of imagination to make a composition. I think all creative process of art needs to be combined with literature because through literature you develop your imagination and your creative process.

In my humble opinion, literature is an art. A beautiful art which a writer transmits in paper all his emotions and feelings by telling them in a thousand different ways. Writing is one of the most beautiful arts. Creating literature involves making use of your creative and intellectual faculties. It is a creative process too. For those reasons I have always looked up to my favorites writers like Dostoyevski, Camus, Sartre, Cervantes, etc.

If you haven’t heard that, let me tell you, the wolf is one of the animals that has the most strengths, it is loyal and protective, as well as resistant. For this reason I chose the wolf to write about because, despite of being alone and taking a different path from their pack, the lone wolves are the most willing and end dominating the pack, so I identify with wolves for their great will power.

The strongest wolves are called alphas, because they help everyone in their pack. And this is the reason why I have chosen it, since I feel identified, “to do good, without looking at whom.” I always try to help others who are in trouble because when I needed help, nobody gave me a helping hand. It’s a great way to make a change. Loyalty is a very important value in our lives if we want to leave a positive mark on it and on the people we love. It means that I will not betray my friends, that I will always seek the best for them. The trust that they place in me, makes our relationships grow and become strong. It is at the same time a type of protection. They always will have support from me.
