Zambete si lacrimi

 - Have you ever put yourself in the shoes of the other person? To truly try to understand their pain.  - Yes, oftentimes.  - And what can you tell me about how it feels?  - Oh, I could write a novel, my dear. I think is a gift that we, people who were so misunderstood during our lifetime, people who only wanted to express our truth without harming others, and with the sole desire to be understood, have. It is our life essence, it is like a light that comes from within; like you hold an entire sun within yourself. We have molded this capacity during times of intense suffering when we were ostracized by the simple fact that we don't agree with the 'normality' or the authority.  We were condemned for being honest, for expressing the needs and desires we had, and for saying out loud what others did not dare to say before us. This, my dear, is a personal hell. You can simply feel it in your heart and in your body. It is like pieces of flash are falling down and...

 - When did you stop enjoying your life? - I think it was the very moment I have given up my self for others. But if I am honest, I believe I have never enjoyed life, really. I was never able to see the beauty or the meaning of it for myself. Although, paradoxically, I always had this sense of purpose; that I came here with a big purpose and it is overwhelming at times. Especially in those moments when I feel lost. I guess we all experience these kind of moments when it is hard to distinguish between the reality and one's thoughts. I always dreamed big and most of the times my dreams ate me alife. They have squished me up, tore me apart. But what are we without these dreams, without the purpose?  - So, if I understand correctly, you did not find a place in this world yet, right? - I guess not...I believe I didn't and probably I never will. But maybe the purpose is not to fit this world as it is, but to try and add to it our unique soul print. If you manage to do this, I think ...

- What is life for you, little soul? - Oh...life...life is in the waterfalls, life is in the rain drops that gently touch your face, life is in the scent of cherry blossom. I think, I am life.  - And what do you think happens when life ends? - Does life ever end? ... our lives continue in the memories of the ones we cherish and love. Life never really ends, life gets transformed and gives birth to other forms of life. Life is perpetual, continous. It's like a curved road that never ends and doesn't take you anywhere, but it allows you to create your story.  - I see...but what about the beings who are suffering in life? - Suffering in itself is life. One cannot suffer without being alive. Suffering happens because there is life, without life there will be no suffering as there will be no happiness. Thus, suffering is a gift that life gives to you, to allow you to feel the depths of sorrow and misery. Only once you go deep there you can fully understand life. Suffering is the ke...
