“To have faith requires courage, the ability to take a risk, the readiness even to accept pain and disappointment. Whoever insists on safety and security as primary conditions of life cannot have faith; whoever shuts himself off in a system of defense, where distance and possession are his means of security, makes himself a prisoner. To be loved, and to love, need courage, the courage to judge certain values as of ultimate concern – and to take the jump and to stake everything on these values.” - Erich Fromm

With a practical sense, I act in the world. Reality obeys me because I know its laws and I apply them relentlessly in my life.

Once I accept my shadow, a new consciousness guides the animal instinct towards a new construction. I go from destructivity to unconditional love through my ability to give.

The conjunction between Eros and Logos produces a new consciousness. The mind opens to discover the other. The ability to relate turns into a calling to act in the tangible world through creative energy.

To love again, I sacrifice the hardened feelings that feed me and keep me tied to that childish attitude of always asking without ever giving. Thus, the sacrifice turns into a gift for the other and the water flows again.

I surrender to my creative power. A limitless force that exalts the beauty in the world. I look with attention and I realize that I can find this beauty in every person, in every space, in every thought, in every thing.

Me entrego a mi capacidad de crear. Una capacidad sin límites que exalta la belleza del mundo. Miro con más atención y me doy cuenta de que puedo encontrar esa belleza en todas las personas, en todos los espacios, en todos los pensamientos, en todas las cosas.
