>History is not linear, what I write is confirmed by the wise and also by the.it confirms life every time we say "this time if I learned the lesson". Our job is not to stop the storm, that's impossible, our job is to keep the helm steady. History is not a glorious arrow advancing towards evolution. It's more like an old wheel, that creaks, that turns, and many times it passes over us again. Because of course, we humans often have a *sophisticated attitude, especially when we stumble, reflect, do a workshop, get enlightened, and then we choose the same person, the same pattern, the same self-deception, but now with more elegant words... Spiritual evolution, they say...* It's kind of like reality surpasses fiction, we're not moving forward, we're just going around. And as long as we do not look squarely at what we repeat, we will continue to call fate what is actually custom. But I remind you, that not everything is tragedy, because the cycle is not punishment, it is insistence and life does not get tired of presenting us with the same scene, with different actors, until we stop acting like the same old one. When we have done the work and we have really gone down to the depths, the hands no longer squeeze the same, they loosen, they open, they stop holding what was never ours to hold, because holding others so that they do not leave gets tired, hurts, exhausts, and there comes a time if one is honest, when the effort of holding back weighs more than the love that we decide to feel. There is no force there anymore, there is no possible deception. We were taught or learned that loving was distance, suffering, it was that slow form of agony that disguises itself as a bond, But according to my experience it is not like that, because what needs to be changed is not the others, we need to change our gaze, because when we change our perception, the carousel stops, the circle breaks, the repetition ends and the question remains there, without makeup, without easy consolation... are you ready to be free and stop using others?... Well, do not be distracted by what others say or do, look only if you act justly. It's not what you think that defines the bond, it's what happens in your body right before you think about it. We are not wrong when something “does not fit us". Maybe it is, because we still can't explain it. Because what we feel... appears before our mind has words to name it.And that, right there, is where it all starts.And there yes, the wheel does not disappear but one is no longer under the wheel, it is because you are above. And that's getting out of character,... That's another story... Happy back to the wheel. Janitze 🦋
