    If I could hold the sunset in my palm until the next day...
    Where does the sunset go when it sets?

    Mornings rush when people and ideas come together or separate, on the way to the school of life, we all look at the blue sky of our gaze, the serene sparkle collapses at the first step in the confrontation with the ability to exist, but it could not be otherwise.

    Our world always seems to be rushing somewhere, we all seem to be escaping to mesmerizing traffic lights, where the chaos of the lines to cross it shows us the freedom to walk on green and serene paths, and the red burns us in the order of being there at that moment.



    A world without absurd rules is always one step away from us, there is no door to look beyond, other than the endless glow of water and the stretch of clear sky that caresses us if we ask for it.
    We forget the present. We run all day, scattered, on a planet… But in the evening, a few moments, we choose to crowd all in front of a wide open window, to the world far away. Everyone, everywhere. Billions…we are here.
    Here I read the stories of my loved ones, without breathing… Here, when longing hurts, I look at my own, without blinking…



    There is no surface without depth, I see this in every soul I meet. In a corner of the world at the foot of a mountain, in front of a fireplace, I am lost in the general archetype, knowing that every soul deserves so much, only if I could hold the sunset in my hands. ...
    Each in his own world and all intersected in a hurry, we find out, sometimes too late, that we all know each other for a long time and for the first and last time we wish we had met earlier. I can only look here in the perspective of a precious rhythm of life, I look with longing in the soul as we all move away... different directions, different destinations, opportunities, goals, ideas...



    If I weren't here, I wouldn't know that if the mountain misses me, it just rises to the top and calls me into the lava of its transformation.
    I wouldn't know that the sea can be just as beautiful, and deep down, you just have to take the time and courage to explore it because she never cries so as not to flood us.
    I would not see that people are able to cope when there are no rules, having the great responsibility of a smile that solves anything. But I'm here.



    Mornings… separate people. But in the evening, we all meet here. No, we are not addicted to this place. We just choose, independently, to be dependent on each other. Earth is not occasional.
    And if I could, I would hold the sunset in my palm until the next day…
    If I could, I would embrace the world in my hands so I can bring it to this thread, thanking in advance for this wonderful starting point.

    Maybe we shouldn't be seriously worried, more than for a card game, all we need to know is there in our hands. Maybe during the game there are moments when the failure occurs, maybe there are moments when we don't want to play the game anymore, maybe there are moments when we are alone in front of all the possibilities, maybe there are moments when we have the impression that we keep the game going, maybe that while we were playing it we wouldn't want to finish it and maybe we don't even want to win it.



    A new beginning of the day tells us that everything has an end and no watch can tell us that, we just have to make sure that everything we do, everything we plan, everything we claim,
    all we need is not a lie and especially not one in the greatest perfection of details.
    Close your eyes and be sure, you don't need to make more plans than you already did, but continue as if absolutely everything matters, if you can't figure it out, make a list that will take a lifetime to write, especially when you begin to see as much as possible for what they are.




    Hope must not be found, it must not be adopted, it is as if we were all looking for Santa Claus, when in fact we are all being one, even the butterflies fly in the direction they do not revolve around their own flight. There is no search for light except for those who do not have it, you cannot seek the light with the lighted candle in your hand, and it is not about the candle it is about the power to see things through that light.
    So we should start with small things and huge steps in favor of the living space we occupy. The first thing we should maybe, would be take a deep breath, as we have never taken a deep breath before.



    I do not understand the reason for becoming so rebellious and inconsistent with the world that grew through us, with Nature that arranged our tie and taught us so much, there is no reason to hit the world that gave birth to us, remember, it has been with us over time until now and beyond.
    Not everything is an answer, and not everything is born of a question, we have the responsibility built in the embroidered event to follow the script of a passage.
    After you hit the ball, are you still interested in the effect and to see where it goes, or do you run to see how nature, in its nature, erases the effect?
    Everything is forgotten, and everything is recorded. Make it count.



    The hardest thing you'll ever learn is not life, is how to say goodbye, this means a preparation in advance made before you are born and along the way.
    That is why we must know at every moment before saying goodbye, if we are the ones who have done good things or we just hoped for them, what is worse or better? to know that you could have done them but you didn't do them, to know that you did them but maybe you shouldn't?

    When you are now in the middle of your life and maybe not near your direction of travel, how can you find the path from your character to the person you dreamed of fulfilling?

    Hoping that everything in life is on the right path, it may be easy to believe that everything happens for a reason, but not when things start to go wrong, it makes you wonder why they happen. The secret is, maybe you may not want to know the answer.

    If we are so close to the truth and so far from being Gods, how do we know that everyone is so near and that we are all in this boat?
    The thing is, we're all at the same party, and we help each other, sometimes twice as much on the same day, when the week doesn't stop on Sunday and it doesn't start on Monday.
    And all this to be just human.

    "My life has taught me that true spiritual insight can come about only through direct experience, the way a severe burn can be attained only by putting your hand in the fire. Faith is nothing more than a watered-down attempt to accept someone else's insight as your own. Belief is the psychic equivalent of an article of secondhand clothing, worn-out and passed down. I equate true spiritual insight with wisdom, which is different from knowledge. Knowledge can be obtained through many sources: books, stories, songs, legends, myths, and, in modern times, computers and television programs. On the other hand, there's only one real source of wisdom - pain. Any experience that provides a person with wisdom will also usually provide them with a scar. The greater the pain, the greater the realization. Faith is spiritual rigor mortis."

    A big, tough, samurai once went to see a little monk. “Monk,” he said, in a voice accustomed to instant obedience, “teach me about heaven and hell!”

    The monk looked up at this mighty warrior and replied with utter disdain, “Teach you about heaven and hell? I couldn’t teach you anything. You’re dirty. You smell. Your blade is rusty. You’re a disgrace, an embarrassment to the samurai class. Get out of my site, I can’t stand you.”


    The samurai was furious. He shook, got all red in the face, was speechless with rage. He pulled out his sword and raised it above him, preparing to slay the monk.

    “That’s hell,” said the monk softly.

    The samurai was overwhelmed. The compassion and surrender of this little man who had offered his life to give this teaching to show him hell! He slowly put down his sword, filled with gratitude, and suddenly peaceful.

    “And that’s heaven,” said the monk softly.

    ~Zen, an ancient tale retold

    Hate and rage are hell on earth. Compassion is heaven.

    “Music is often the spark that lights the fire of the soul.” Jeffrey Fry



    What's your spark? Going on the street? Eating an exotic fruit? Looking at the clouds? Bless people? A dive in the ocean, a paragliding flight? A good night's sleep? A song, a memory?

    “In the silence of love you will find the spark of life” Rumi, The Love Poems of Rumi



    Maybe we will come back and smile more, maybe we will look more closely and see better, maybe we will listen, not to judge, but to understand. Maybe we will feel more intense, but we will also appreciate everything we can feel, maybe we will forgive and love more, we will become wiser, better and stronger.
    Stay that way for your loved ones, but also for yourself, the one from the future, and be careful how you get there.



    “I knew that I was dying. Something in me said, Go ahead, die, sleep, become as them, accept.
    Then something else in me said, no, save the tiniest bit. It needn't be much, just a spark.
    A spark can set a whole forest on fire. Just a spark. Save it.” Charles Bukowski, The Last Night of the Earth Poems

    The game of life... Needs it heroes and villains, also everything in between.

    We are what we are and we will play our parts in the grand act of life.

    "The web of our life is of a mingled yarn, good and ill together: our virtues would be proud if our faults whipped them not; and our crimes would despair if they were not cherished by our own virtues."

    "What a piece of work is a man, how noble in reason, how infinite in faculties, in form and moving how express and admirable, in action how like an angel, in apprehension how like a god." ~ Shakespeare




    In the end, when everything else will have been stripped off... Only this will have mattered. How you treated your fellow living beings.

    "A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another."

    Quote A modest man from Mandrake
    Travelled rich to the city
    He had a need to discover
    A use for his newly found wealth
    Because he was human
    Because he had goodness
    Because he was moral
    They called him insane
    Delusions of grandeur
    Visions of splendor
    A manic depressive
    He walks in the rain
    Eyes wide open
    Heart undefended
    Innocence untarnished
    Cinderella Man
    Doing what you can
    They can't understand
    What it means
    Cinderella Man
    Hang on to your plans
    Try as they might
    They cannot steal your dreams
    In the betrayal of his love he awakened
    To face a world of cold reality
    And a look in the eyes of the hungry
    Awakened him to what he could do
    He held up his riches
    To challenge the hungry
    Purposeful motion
    For one so insane
    They tried to fight him
    Just couldn't beat him
    This manic depressive
    Who walks in the rain
    Cinderella Man
    Doing what you can
    They can't understand
    What it means
    Cinderella Man
    Hang on to your plans
    Try as they might
    They cannot steal your dreams

    I didn't contribute to much to this thread as other did,but Wind had a very passionate feeling to surf us in unexpected places and finding interesting and uplifting posts since the beginning of the thread.Congratulations from the bottom of my heart to Wind and all posters.





    Keep surfing!

    Dear Wind, thank you for the opportunity to meet here From the beginning you were a phenomenon for me, intense enough to leave important and good traces in the continuation of my inner exploration.

    This threshold is nothing more than a new pre-launch in an even wider range of options that can positively mark this place that can be a rediscovery of itself at any time of the day.



    I do not think that the positivism of this thread is to change things fundamentally; it is for good observation, good will and good spiritual disposition of those who already find their balance and are in this process.
    To participate in a balance means to get actively involved in a some kind of adaptation of some civic consciousness; it means to get actively involved in the beneficial and clear, and very clear and harmonious part of spiritual development in general.

    We do not need cold showers to say that we all need a transformation; we are already under the cold shower of the most expensive period of un-integrated energies.
    I think we must all gain immunity to external bad influence, I think we must step hard on the wrong services brought to humanity, I think that in this period the only focus is to adopt the position of truth in the action of the wise mind, a renewal of vows to bind the world for the unexpected benefit of her inner image.



    We must pay attention to the system we want to impose as a background not a battleground.

    “The bad things that happen to us don't define us. It's just important sometimes that people understand where we're coming from.” Bryan Stevenson, Just Mercy: A Story of Justice and Redemption

    So what's on the news today(?)



    This is a unique place of love for people and nature, it is a hidden truth inside some beings, a chance to write before reading and a bonus to read before we know, an extra chance to speak before listen and especially a stratagem of will in listening first and then acting.

    It is about self-giving through participation, it is about a common denominator of uninterrupted thoughts that together brings the power to set things at the reference level of the overwhelming and unexplored sign of the good meaning of humanity.



    Dear Wind, you beautiful little wonderful "creature" of my spiritual awakening and the warmest and serene being I have ever met..., I also want to congratulate you for being a good partner of spiritual revolution and especially being a good advisor that I can always rely on. Thanks for all your help.

    We have a long way to go, presented in the opportunity to find the spiritual purpose of every sign heart of living being, a difficult and impossible mission that the elements of life will synthesize so easily that we will not feel its course and passage at all.
    The deepest considerations, for all those who participated here, reading, thinking, analyzing, creating, reflecting, offering...
    As today, I am willing to offer my true meditation by writing poetry.



    One million crystal butterflies rise to the sky
    One million human hopes just smile with them and fly
    Give back the power of the clearest days the courage and one single try
    And frozen lens of urban dreams to ask themselves "just why?"
    Restore the effect, give the signal for the good and lucky games
    Through magic and good virtue, we challenge spirits without names
    The honor of one truth and history by being
    The will to try success for giving up in foreseeing
    The shepherd of one wisdom in us set up to giving hands
    Return for us the plains of the divine ancestral lands
    Honor the life in the fruit of an unending joy
    Send the intention of the desired deeds for us all to enjoy

    Bring in the flakes of pure desires and accomplishments and longings
    Grow in the ice of grounded light the worldly universe of our belongings
    And pray for the children to bring them only health and joy
    Scent of scented cakes and flowers for the little girls and boys
    Colorful balloons to bring the purest thoughts and useful toys



    Crystalline fresh water to flow from frozen lands in divine grace
    The sleepless awakening conquers the borders of love and open good will in your space
    The faith of the human child will give birth to living life
    Mother nature to be the center of the heart in prevalence of rife
    Your snow that silences the silence, in let consciousness be in its wisdom
    Let it snow with accomplishments and in the path of each one a star of one kingdom .

    A star one gift for humanity, in my worth and moment of remembrance
    The gift of beauty healthy life, to stand on the earthly cross of the universe of justice entrance


    Let the people be fulfilled, always with a smile on your face
    With every winter we are reborn, with every summer we are peaceful embrace

    May there be peace in the silence of the stars
    Let us bring Earth to the joy between them in memoirs

    Let's raise generations of beautiful children and flowers
    Let's grow from the planet in healthy vibrations, truly of ours
    Let us fulfill what was written to us as we ourselves predicted
    Whole fields of light and green meadows without being constricted.




    Billions of beliefs you can believe in, and the gods among men in men among gods
    And the joy of seeing the human's throughout childhood, what will be the odds?
    Trees with wonderful cool shades, the heat of the hot summer in rains
    Rest of bright warm souls, and peace to the snowy and joyful days
    Always come to me in all seasons, always give the gift of life in one gaze

    In the fire of enlightened mystery to grow the world too clean
    In the white of the morning in the threshold of the sun white screen
    And in the night illuminated in the aura of the yellow moon bride
    And the warm wind that carries you over seas and distant slide
    And transfer ports of your devoted work of being agree
    To bring you blessing of processed words in this poetry.

    And I believe and I will always believe in honest and clean words
    And I know and I see and I feel that the forces are helping from worlds
    Your gift is humanity, your mission is honor and grace
    Ours is gratitude, remembrance, and arms of the hearts through the space.

    Being grateful today, we have a million, we need a few billion more to go...
    "see" you everyone...

    This is a serious world (If that is what it is)
    Then be serious
    Seriously love
    Seriously enjoy each other and your life.

    Be seriously happy.





    Quote “Love is passion, obsession, someone you can't live without. I say, fall head over heels. Find someone you can love like crazy and who will love you the same way back. How do you find him? Well, you forget your head, and you listen to your heart. Cause the truth is, there's no sense living your life without this. To make the journey and not fall deeply in love, well, you haven't lived a life at all. But you have to try, cause if you haven't tried, you haven't lived.”
    ― William Parish
    The rest of the serious-nesses are chump change in comparison.

    “There are so many doors to open. I am impatient to begin. Charlie Gordan” Daniel Keyes, Flowers for Algernon



    “The man who comes back through the Door in the Wall will never be quite the same as the man who went out. He will be wiser but less sure, happier but less self-satisfied, humbler in acknowledging his ignorance yet better equipped to understand the relationship of words to things, of systematic reasoning to the unfathomable mystery which it tries, forever vainly, to comprehend” Aldous Huxley, The Doors of Perception

    Autonomy and independence do not begin with the cutting of the umbilical cord, they begin when the relationship between older people becomes ones that connects and opens doors.
    People are portals, distorted by comparisons but designed for connection.

    “A very little key will open a very heavy door.” Charles Dickens, Hunted Down



    “I don't have doors & walls to protect you, but I hollowed out this space in my chest in case you ever need a home.” Nitya Prakash

    Unfortunately, I am both introverted and shy, a double whammy in the lottery of personal attributes, going by today's society where being voluble often equates with being valuable, i prefer to share in silence what I would not want to keep just for myself.
    And all this to be just human.

    Enlightenment, larger than itself

    Larger than all that has been written, combined

    Larger than the sum of its parts, if you will







    Intimidating thought until realizing the source

    “The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.” Mark Twain



    When death did not exist, nor yet eternity,
    Before the seed of life had first set living free,
    When yesterday was nothing, and time had not begun,
    And one included all things, and all was less than one,
    When sun and moon and sky, the stars, the spinning earth
    Were still part of the things that had not come to birth
    And You quite lonely stood... I ask myself with awe,
    Who is this mighty God we bow ourselves before.

    Ere yet the Gods existed already He was God
    And out of endless water with fire the lightning shed;
    He gave the Gods their reason, and joy to earth did bring,
    He brought to man forgiveness, and set salvation's spring.
    Lift up your hearts in worship, a song of praise en freeing,
    He is the death of dying, the primal birth of being.

    To him I owe my eyes that I can see the dawn,
    To him I owe my heart wherein is pity born;
    When ever I hear the tempest, I hear him pass along
    Midst multitude of voices raised in a holy song,
    And yet of his great mercy I beg still one behest:
    That I at last be taken to his eternal rest.



    Be curses on the fellow who would my praise acclaim.
    But blessings upon him who does my soul defame;
    Believe no matter whom who slanders my renown,
    Give power to the arm that lifts to strike me down
    Let him upon the earth above all others loom
    Who steals away the stone that lies upon my tomb.

    Hunted by humanity, let me my whole life fly
    Until I feel from weeping my very eyes are dry;
    Let everyone detest me no matter where I go,
    Until from persecution myself I do not know;
    Let misery and horror my heart transform to stone,
    That I may hate my mother, in whose love I have grown;
    Till hating and deceiving for me with love will vie,
    And I forget my suffering, and learn at last to die.



    Dishonored let me perish, an outcast among men;
    My body less than worthy to block the gutter then,
    And may, o God of mercy, a crown of diamonds wear
    The one who gives my heart the hungry dogs to tear,
    While for the one who in my face does callous fling a cloud
    In your eternal kingdom reserve a place, o God.

    Thus only, gracious Father, can I re-quittance give
    That you from your great bounty vouched me the joy to live
    To gain eternal blessings my head I do not bow,
    But rather ask that you in hating compassion show.
    Till comes at last the evening, your breath will mine efface,
    And into endless nothing I go, and leave no trace. Mihai Eminesc, Romanian poet 1sept.1879


    “I don't want to die without any scars.” Chuck Palahniuk, Fight Club; And for that you always find me under the arch of ...

    “To paraphrase several sages: Nobody can think and hit someone at the same time.” Susan Sontag, Regarding the Pain of Others

    From the Carpathians, Anca.
    And all this to be just human.
