I want that kind of abundance today...

We believe that an extraordinary life has to look extraordinary. That has to be noticed. That has to provoke admiration.

But over the years one begins to discover that there are lives that look spectacular on the outside and feel empty on the inside.

And there are also simple, silent lives, without too much exhibition, which are filled with immense wealth. To have peace of mind, and not to live running. Being able to rest without guilt. To feel loved without having to win all the time... Ahhh and having the freedom to choose.

We often confuse luxury with wealth. I think that growing up is also that, it's to stop asking ourselves how much something is worth and start asking ourselves how much it costs us emotionally. There are things that do not cost money and come out very expensive, such as relationships that drain us, exhaust us, places where we no longer want to be, expectations that force us to become someone we are not.

And there are others that seem small, but end up being immense: a quiet afternoon, an honest conversation, a bed where you sleep in peace, an existence that you don't need to justify. I want that kind of abundance today.

‎For me, a truly luxurious life has much more to do with deciding how I want to live, with whom I want to share my days, what things I am no longer willing to tolerate and, above all, who I want to be, while I still have time ahead of me.

The real luxury is not to get a life that impresses others. It's about building a life that we don't want to escape from.

And of that I do want abundance. A lot... because extraordinary things come disguised as everyday life! . Sometimes, to discover something greater, you have to have the courage not to cling to what we already know. In this very idealized world, I came to think that I was weird for thinking exactly this way.

Where social networks are showing false eccentricities, and they show everything that is precisely not happiness. I prefer to always return to the simple because for me it is the luxurious as physical and mental health. I feel like a millionaire every day because I do what I want, I have peace and calm in my soul, I sleep shamelessly well, I dedicate time, I eat what I like, I can pay my fixed expenses and I have something left over for some expenses ants, I am outrageously a billionaire. I have learned to live with the just and necessary today they call it minimalist mode, because I will not take the material with me when I die.

The most precious thing we have is the now and being alive to share it. Sometimes we drown in the future and forget to live in the present. No one knows what fate has in store for us. To start what there is to be alive. That includes us too.

If we are going to think about death, let's think about the day when we can leave without anything pending to forgive or to be forgiven. It is the only thing we can do to earn the kingdom of heaven and leave a mark on those we love immensely, so I can say for sure that the best luxury in my life is to have good health!! Healthy children!! And family love...
