You know, Sam? Nowadays, the two things people believe in the most are Love and Destiny. And I wondered…why?
They told me it is because Love is the prettiest feeling which moves the world and becomes people open-handed (because Money and Hate are not awesome at all this way) and the idea of Destiny gives them the calmness to know that nothing they do, good or wrong, was their responsibility.
Well, Love is overrated because of the years the literature, music and cinema trade have dedicated in introducing The Utopian Idea in the world that Love always carries good stuff and it is all what you need. No misunderstood, I agree Love is a fantastic feeling which can take out from people the most beautiful things they can do. But it’s not as ideal as people think.
Love is the most powerful and dangerous feeling because everybody believes The Utopian Idea, what gives it the capability of hurting very deep leaving no trace, making us sad, selfish, betrayers, even murderers. No one would suspect of Love so that everybody thinks it’s always good.
Hence we have to take into account that we must take the control of our feelings, especially of Love, and not to think that we can leave it with no vigilance because if we do it, we will repent of it.
And about Destiny…well, it is frequently in the corner of any street, as a bitch, as a dog or as a lottery vendor, its three more usual embodiments. But it ever makes home visits, you have to go out and find it. However, nobody knows this.
I think I’m getting older, Sam, and that’s why I do know that Destiny is an idea the humans created because they need to be assured that what they do in their lives was already written to happen that way. So that, they don’t feel so much troubled when they fail or too well when they do something right.
I’ve reached the conclusion that people are too weak to manage all the strong emotions the Life is as a whole, Sam…They don’t laugh, they smile. They don’t cry, they weep. They don’t run, they walk. They don’t argue, they discuss. They don’t hate, they misprize. They don’t live, they die little by little…everything is content in the inside.
Therefore, I have realized that they feel overwhelmed by Reality and need to live in a world of lies, because it’s the unique style of life they can manage if they want to be happy. Otherwise I can perceive Reality much more than them, I feel I’m drowsy and I need to be more conscious of Life than what I am, and I need to reach the whole truth for being happy.
I know they would like to stop suffering, but to suffer is a consequence of feeling, and to feel is to live…but I don’t mind to suffer. I want to feel the whole Life burning my skin with its intensity…and if suffering is the prize I have to pay for it, I haven’t bought anything cheaper.
