Reflections on the legacy of the Roman Empire: What if it still lasted?
****Image Created in Canva with Artificial Intelligence.****
Hello dear readers, we return after several months of absence, this time with a topic that has made us reflect a lot and we hope you also join us in this reflection, about the Roman Empire, we can not deny that it had a vast territorial domain and much lasting influence in history, still remain a constant source of fascination and reflection, however we have a big question:
****What would have happened if this Empire still stood in our times?****
Imagine a world in which the Roman Empire never fell and how this would totally change our current reality. We have to take into account those positive and negative aspects if this would have happened:
****s of belonging to the Roman Empire today:****
Stability and Security: We cannot deny that under the control of the Roman Empire according to History, many regions experienced a remarkable political stability and above all security, which allowed its citizens to live without the constant "fear" of conflicts and wars.
Advanced Infrastructure: The Roman Empire was famous for its advanced engineering works, such as: aqueducts, roads, bridges. A world in which the Roman Empire was still standing indicates that we would continue to enjoy such a majestic, solid and well-developed infrastructure.
Culture and Education: Nor can we deny that from Rome cultural development, art and education were encouraged, many libraries and schools flourished, which possibly would have resulted in a more educated and cultured society. Do you think this is possible?
Unity and Trade: For the Roman Empire to unify vast regions was synonymous with success, to promote trade, this would have facilitated interaction between diverse cultures and allowed for a more fluid cultural and economic exchange.
****Negatives of belonging to the Roman Empire today:****
Centralization of Power: Unfortunately the concentration of power in Rome often resulted in decisions that were unilateral that might not take into account the needs of those regions that depended on the Empire, this could have generated resentment in some part of the population.
Social Inequality: Although today we still have such inequality, in Rome despite its advances, there was also a marked social inequality, the Aristocrats enjoyed privileges while the majority of the population faced difficult conditions.
Economic Decline and Corruption: Neither can we say that this has been overcome today, over time the Roman Empire faced economic problems and corruption, these challenges could have continued in an alternative timeline.
Imagining a world in which the Roman Empire still existed is an interesting and rather curious exercise, because we can speculate historically speaking. Although we cannot deny that it would have had positive aspects but it would also have faced significant challenges. Here we can reflect on this topic, starting with the understanding that history is marked by many changes that are mostly inevitable, the development of humanity is the result of different factors. Therefore, we should appreciate both the positive and negative lessons of Roman history, as we focus on creating our own paths for the present and future.
Do we need a more Empathetic Society?
**Image Created in Canva with Artificial Intelligence.**
In recent years I have noticed that in today's society, Empathy is becoming scarce, perhaps the reason for this are the new technologies, polarized politics or individualistic thinking that every day gains more ground in the world. The truth is that this ability to connect with others in a meaningful way, to put ourselves in the other's shoes is decreasing and the saddest thing is that this is passing from generation to generation. In this brief article we will briefly discuss the importance of empathy in our society.
It is not a secret to anyone that humans must be social beings, we are not an island, because at some point we will need to talk to those around us, being empathetic is something so fundamental in our lives, because it helps us to understand, to understand much better the needs and situations of others, thanks to this we can act more compassionately. It was thought that with the new technologies human beings would become more sociable, more empathetic, but the truth is that we are having a totally different effect to what was expected, because unfortunately social networks have made us learn to isolate ourselves more, to reduce our ability to communicate with others.
If you start to evaluate the different social networks, for example a very famous in the world where only videos are uploaded ***(I save the name to avoid problems)***, the comments that abound there are mostly of hatred, comparisons, insults, this social network has been used to discredit, to generate attacks against those who have a different thought or those whose physique may not be the most ***"suitable"*** for some.
If there is something that empathy achieves in human beings is to help us when it comes to Social Justice, when we are empathetic, we can better understand the inequalities and injustices that occur in our community, region or country, thanks to it we can see the world from a different perspective because you being empathetic, you look for a way to put yourself in the shoes of others, to understand what happens to them and treat them in a fairer way because you can understand what that person is going through.
**To be empathic is to see the world through the eyes of the other person, and not to see our world reflected in their eyes (Carl Rogers).**
This phrase works wonders for me, because my experience in Empathy goes hand in hand with my current job, being a Customer Service Advisor, is not an easy task, dealing every day with different people, loaded with problems, different types of customers has taught me to put myself in their place, If half of the world had the opportunity to work for a week in customer service, believe me we would have a more equitable and fair society, because we would develop a unique empathy.
Together we can have a fairer, more affective and equitable society, if today it is hard for you to be empathetic, I hope that after reading this article you will try to test your empathy.

Can Education and Reading transform the world?
***Image Created in Canva with Artificial Intelligence.***
Hello my good friends, I want to answer this question that arises because of a comment I heard today in the public transport, about education and reading, some people claimed that it was a waste of time, the important thing is to make money and that's it.
However, as a lover of reading and knowledge, I understand the importance of education and reading for human and social development. Both tools allow us to acquire the knowledge and skills that enable us to improve our lives and better understand the world around us. In this article, I will discuss how education and literacy can improve our world.
First, it is important to note that education and reading open doors to new possibilities and horizons. Through them we can discover new areas of interest, acquire technical and professional skills, and even learn new languages and cultures. Education and reading can be the path to personal and professional success, which can have a positive impact on our communities and the world at large.
In addition, education and reading can foster values and skills that are fundamental to peaceful and harmonious coexistence. Through education, we can learn to respect cultural differences, value diversity, develop communication and negotiation skills, and foster values such as tolerance and empathy. Reading can help us better understand other people's experiences and points of view, develop empathy and understanding, and foster respect and tolerance.
*"Of the various instruments invented by man, the most amazing is the book; all others are extensions of his body... Only the book is an extension of imagination and memory." Jorge Luis Borges.*
In addition, education and reading can have a significant impact on social and economic development. Education improves people's skills and productivity, which can drive economic growth and improve the quality of life in communities. Reading fosters the development of cognitive skills and critical thinking, which can have a positive impact on social and economic problem solving.
In conclusion, education and reading are powerful tools that can have a significant impact on our lives and the world at large. Both open doors to new opportunities, foster values and skills that are fundamental for peaceful and harmonious coexistence, and contribute to social and economic development. Therefore, it is important to promote education and reading as tools to improve our lives and build a better world. For many years I have tried to inspire and motivate the people around me to become literate and engaged readers.
Thank you for stopping by, for dedicating your valuable time and reading this article, please do not hesitate to leave us a like if you like it, feel free to leave your thoughts, your reflection or opinion on this interesting topic.
-What We Once Were-
Hello dear friends, I hope you are very well, time without passing by my third home here, I invite you to take a pass by our article, written in the most thoughtful way, about time, about evolution and the changes that we humans have, we hope you like it and is to your liking, I send you a big hug, take care please.

What We Once Were
***Image Created in Canva with Artificial Intelligence.***
Being human is a continuous process of evolution, and each stage of our lives changes us in different ways. When we are born, we are completely dependent on our caregivers, and as we grow up, we learn to explore our environment and interact with others.
But why would you want to change the way you are when you grow up?.
The answer is the need to adapt to the challenges and circumstances that arise in life. As our environment is constantly changing, we too must change in order to respond effectively to any situation. In addition, our experience and knowledge are critical in this transformation process. Every situation we experience, whether positive or negative, affects our perception of the world and how we interact with others. It allows us to make more mature decisions and grow emotionally. From an early age we encounter situations that teach us important life lessons. Family relationships teach us skills such as empathy, forgiveness, patience and teamwork. Relationships with friends and classmates help us develop social skills and understand the feelings of others.
When we face more complex challenges, such as academic stress and pressure or career choices, we learn important skills that will enable us to deal with similar situations in the future. Not all of our experiences are positive and some leave emotional scars. It is important to seek professional help to overcome these traumas and prevent them from hindering our emotional development. It is normal for our priorities to change and for us to focus on different areas of our lives over time.
As we age, we may feel the need to focus on our careers, our family or our health, but that does not mean that we have lost who we are or retreated from who we were. Instead, each stage of our lives allows us to grow and learn new skills that make us more complete people. Change is a natural and necessary process in human life.
Ultimately, life is a constant process of transformation and evolution in which we must adapt to circumstances and challenges. Every experience, both positive and negative, affects our view of the world and how we relate to others. As we age, our focus changes and we grow emotionally. Relationships with loved ones and friends teach us important skills for facing similar challenges in the future. However, there are traumatic experiences that can leave emotional scars, so it is important to seek help to overcome these traumas and continue to grow emotionally. Accepting change and seeing it as an opportunity to grow and improve is fundamental to achieve a state of emotional and mental well-being that allows us to live a full and satisfying life. Change is a natural and necessary process in our lives that helps us acquire new skills and knowledge that make us more complete as human beings.

The Steps of Life - [Los Pasos de la Vida]
**October, 14, 2022.**
**Design created in Canva.com**
**@VirtualVariety**
**Article written in English, translated into Spanish.**
After so many months of absence, we return to start our story here, it has been more than two years since we published our first article, we hope that those readers who have always supported us are still here.
**Luego de tantos meses de ausencia, volvemos a iniciar nuestra historia acá, ya han pasado más de dos años desde que publicamos nuestro primer artículo, esperamos que esos lectores que siempre nos han apoyado sigan por acá.**
We have titled this article The Steps of Life, since we are born, until our last day of life we spend our time walking, from here to there, touring different places, however these walks have a stronger meaning than we think. In each walk we come across different things, places, people, reflections, thoughts, it is so incredible that we can create a mental movie, life passes through our feet.
**Hemos titulado este articulo Los Pasos De La Vida, desde que nacemos, hasta nuestro último día de vida nos las pasamos caminando, de aquí para allá, recorriendo distintos lugares, sin embargo esas caminatas tienen un sentido más fuerte del que pensamos. En cada caminata nos topamos con distintas cosas, lugares, personas, reflexiones, pensamientos, es tan increíble que podemos crear una película mental, la vida pasa a través de nuestros pies.**
Many people complain that the days go by too fast or slow, or simply focus on the weekend to go partying and / or rest, but they leave aside the importance of each day, enjoying those hours of light or night that we are given, to learn, to reflect, to smile, sometimes the simplest thing is worth gold, unlike other things that become banal.
**Muchas personas se quejan de que los días pasan muy rápidos o lentos, o simplemente se centran en que llegue el fin de semana para irse de fiesta y/o descansar, pero dejan a un lado la importancia de cada día, el disfrutar esas horas de luz o de noche que se nos regala, para aprender, para reflexionar, para sonreír, a veces lo más simple vale oro, a diferencia de otras cosas que se vuelven banales**.
There is a phrase with which I identify...
**Hay una frase con la cual me identifico…**
***The pessimist complains about the wind; the optimist hopes it will change; the realist adjusts the sails (William George Ward).***
***El pesimista se queja del viento; el optimista espera que cambie; el realista ajusta las velas (William George Ward).***
I know that life is not easy, so many internal and external problems affect us, the economic crisis, the pandemic, the lack of good jobs, we all would like to have incredible salaries, fulfill every dream fast, have our house, help our families, go on trips, have so many things and maybe now we can not, for different reasons, however we have something that is valuable although it seems illogical, but we have Health, something so important, without health we can not achieve anything dear friends.
**Yo se que la vida no es fácil, tantos problemas internos, como externos nos afectan, la crisis económica, la pandemia, la falta de buenos empleos, todos quisiéramos tener sueldos increíbles, cumplir cada sueño rápido, tener nuestra casa, ayudar a nuestras familias, irnos de viajes, tener tantas cosas y quizás ahorita no podamos, por diferentes motivos, sin embargo tenemos algo que es valioso aunque parezca ilógico, pero tenemos Salud, algo tan importante, sin salud no podemos lograr nada estimados amigos.**
We can have a lot of money, but when health is missing, not even the greatest fortune in the world can help us, can solve this serious problem, that is why we must always see life from different points of view, always looking for the positive side, the importance of what we have, where we are and where we are going, every step we take is a new story, every step we take is a new reflection, every step we take is a new way to get our achievements. We were born to move forward, to progress, we cannot stagnate, even stagnant water becomes harmful, nothing in this life can stagnate because if it happens it is like falling into that vile abyss, you can never get out...
**Podremos tener mucho dinero, pero cuando falta la salud, ni la mayor fortuna del mundo podrá ayudarnos, podrá resolver ese grave problema, es por ello que siempre debemos ver la vida desde diferentes puntos de vistas, siempre buscando el lado positivo, la importancia de lo que tenemos, donde estamos y a donde vamos, cada paso que damos es una historia nueva, cada paso que damos es una reflexión nueva, cada paso que damos es una nueva forma de obtener nuestros logros. Nacimos para avanzar, para progresar, no podemos estancarnos, hasta el agua estancada se vuelve dañina, nada en esta vida puede estancarse porque si sucede es como caer en ese vil abismo, jamás podrás salir.**
Many of us do not like to listen to advice from others, because we are proud or we simply like to live life our own way, but every piece of advice is really valuable, because even if it is short or silly, someday it will be useful. If today we are and possibly tomorrow we are not, the best thing would be that this day we walk more than usual, every story is important, every story is valuable. It doesn't matter if it is short, it doesn't matter if it has more drama than fun, every little thing counts.
**A muchos no nos gusta escuchar consejos de otros, porque somos orgullosos o simplemente nos gusta vivir la vida a nuestra manera, pero cada consejo es realmente valioso, porque así sea corto o tonto, algún día servirá. Si hoy estamos y posiblemente mañana no, lo mejor sería que este día camináramos más de lo normal, cada historia es importante, cada historia es valiosa. No importa que sea corta, no importa que tenga más drama que diversión, cada cosa por más mínima que tenga cuenta.**
Today I make this reflection after having lived through so many things, after having had so many changes in my life, if I were asked the question, "A year ago, did you imagine where you are today? My answer would be, no. Because my life has taken so many turns, I have had so many stories, good, bad, excellent, not so good. However every story I have, that I have written, that I have created, that I have lived has made me a better person, has formed me, has helped me to do.
**Hoy realizo esta reflexión después de haber vivido tantas cosas, después de haber tenido tantos cambios en mi vida, si me preguntaran ¿Hace un año te imaginabas donde estas hoy?. Mi respuesta será, no. Porque mi vida dio tantas vueltas, he tenido tantas historias, buenas, malas, excelentes, no tan buenas. Sin embargo cada historia que tengo, que he escrito, que he creado, que he vivido me ha hecho mejor persona, me ha formado, me ha ayudado hacer.**
I know that you, who are reading me, you have thousands of stories, some that make you smile and others make you cry, but hey, those stories will help you be a better person, they will help you grow more than you can imagine, they are your stories, feel proud of them, because without stories we would be nothing. This from a lover of every story that makes up this crazy but beautiful world.
**Sé que tú, que me estás leyendo, tú tienes miles de historias, algunas que te sacan sonrisas y otras lágrimas, pero hey, esas historias te ayudaran a ser una mejor persona, te ayudaran a crecer más de lo que te imaginas, son tus historias, siéntete orgulloso de ellas, porque sin historias no seriamos nada. Te lo dice un amante de cada historia que compone a este loco pero hermoso mundo.**

Live As You Like
We are having a vacation in this world, I do not understand why we have to complicate our lives, making it even more difficult with regressive thoughts that only generate stress, worries, let's be like the sunsets, impressive, pleasant, but changing, let's not stay anchored to a place, let's not stay anchored to a way of being that in the end hurts us, enjoy life and live as you want that when the day ends who will be happy or unhappy is you not the rest, think for you not for the world, because when we are no longer here, the planet will continue to rotate as if nothing was missing.

"Happiness is a Journey, not a Destination" - Anonymous
Many times we think that happiness will come at some point in our lives, but we forget or perhaps we forget that it is there accompanying us on this temporary journey that we have in this world, if we think that it will come at some point unfortunately we will die waiting, it is not that at some point in this life we will be happier, no, while we walk, while we travel in this world we must be happy, despite the circumstances we will always have a reason to celebrate, to smile, to love, not everything is bad, let's try to see everything from a different point of view please.
Happy beginning of the week my dear friends, I hope you are all excellent, enjoy this picture that I took a few months ago, I love taking pictures of flowers, they are divine, greetings.
Good morning my dear friends, I hope you are feeling excellent and start this week with very good energies.

On this occasion I share with you a visual sample of the delicious cake that my mom made me a few days ago for my birthday, a chocolate cake and it was divine. Greetings beautiful people

"Never give up on a dream. Just try to see the signs that lead you to it." - (Paulo Coelho)
Even in the simplest sunset there is a hidden message, a sign that tells you that you are on the right path even though it may not be the most traveled or the easiest, never give up what we long for, life was not created to be easy or simple, on the contrary we will always have to fight, give one last fight to get us those favorable results, never give up, we are closer than we imagine.
Happy afternoon/evening dear friends, I know I have been missing around here, it has been a very turbulent months for me, however I am going to organize myself to come back and share with you, I really miss being around here and learn from your publications, interact and be happy with your pictures, I wish you a great beginning of the week, I hope you like this picture taken with a lot of eagerness, greetings.
WE ARE PASSING
Many of us have understood that we are in this world temporarily. Today we know where we are, tomorrow we don't, today we know that we breathe and tomorrow? That's why I don't understand why those shitty wars continue to exist in the world, that hatred, violence, discrimination.Among other things that only shorten our stay and our happiness, friends, let's love more, let's hate less, let's stop being selfish, let's stop being bad. Let's enjoy What is given to us, much or little let us be grateful, as long as you have health and life, you will have everything, happy night or tomorrow beautiful people.

Do we need advice?
There is a bad habit we human beings have, to give advice when we are not asked for it. Unfortunately, not everyone accepts or appreciates advice, no matter how good and wise it may be, as an Arab proverb says:
"Advise the ignorant, and he will take you for his enemy." (Arab Proverb)
We cannot give advice to those who do not like advice or are deaf, let us learn to be silent when necessary, it is better to be mute than to be talkative, not all people in this life deserve a helping hand, many, out of selfishness, pride, prefer to face wars alone, Happy morning or evening beautiful people.

Tips To Be Happier
Hello dear friends, I hope you are excellent, although it sounds a little crazy the title of this little post, the truth is that there are tips that are worth gold, that can change our lives, I remember a saying that my grandfather always said: "Who does not listen or read advice, never get old".
Can we be happier, the answer is YES, of course we can, let's remember that happiness starts thanks to our mind, thanks to us, not to others, because if we block ourselves and decide to be in sadness mode, complaint mode, negativity mode, not even thousands of wealth will make us happy, for the simple fact that we do not see beyond where we are.
There are three fundamental tips to be happier or to complement happiness:
1.- Live your day as if it were your last.
In this life we know when we arrive, at what time, in what place, but we will never know when we will leave, this trip called life has a last stop but we will never know where and when it will be, that is why we need to take advantage of every minute of life, enjoy it, do what we dream, what we want, what we long for.
2.- Learn as much as you can.
In this life we spend every day working, longing to have riches, to have money, to improve our quality of life, to have many material things but we forget that when it is our turn to leave this world, none of that we will take with us, however there is something that we will take with us are the good memories, the good moments, that knowledge acquired in a formal and informative way, also the experiences, so let's take that time to read, to learn, to expand our knowledge, our skills.
3.- To love no matter what.
Let's fall in love with life, with people, with animals, let's ignore the bad, the world is already full of evil, hatred, violence, let's not add fuel to the fire, let's love, let's transmit love, let's transmit peace, let's be a wall of containment against the bad, let's not make our world revolve around envy, chaos, the toxic, that which kills us internally, let's not focus on absurd and illogical things, let's always see the different angles of life, the good, the bad, the best, the only one, so we can enjoy the most of what is given to us.
I hope these short tips will be useful and enjoyable.

Can a smile make a difference?
Some people see the little things as absurd and illogical, however they are blinded and do not see that the little things are what really make the difference, when we smile we transmit peace, tranquility, but above all Confidence, something so vital to be able to achieve many things in this world, there is a big difference when we have a friendly attitude, when we are polite and give a good smile in some place or environment, to when we are rude and always have a face of annoyance, as if it smells like shit.
We must always be objective and know where to behave in the most appropriate way and more if we are in a work or family environment, because that is where we need a smile, some nice words, a friendly attitude, in these last times of my life I have noticed how important it is to be nice to others, to give a smile that makes people happy, to give a nice word that improves their mood, their day, so please, let's smile more, let's be more friendly, even if our world is not going in the best way, let's remember that people are not to blame for our sufferings, problems or karmas. Happy afternoon or tomorrow dear friends.

Healthy Envy or Bad Envy?
Once I was in a self-esteem class in the educational environment, when the teacher made a comment that until today I have not been able to get out of my mind: "There are two types of envy, the healthy and the bad". The most curious thing about this is that several colleagues supported her, but my position was to refute what she mentioned, because envy is envy, there will never be a healthy envy, because when you envy focuses on the triumphs of others, you live the life of others and not yours, well says Mr. Harold Coffin "Envy is the art of counting the blessings of others instead of your own".
So we can never normalize envy, much less think that it is healthy, on the contrary it is something harmful and toxic, because envy leads us to act negatively towards others, it leads us to become selfish, evil beings who only want the other to fall, that their success collapses to be equal or worse than us.
That is why in the world we see so many failures in work, education, family, love among others, because people do not act for their own motivation, but because he or she has succeeded, then it is about imitating and especially overshadow the work of others just for not admitting that we do not have that ability, but everything in this life has a solution, we can work, study, complement what we have and even develop new skills to get ahead, if we focus only on envy we will be failures, who unfortunately will spend their lives in misery.

The Night
There are nights of nights, where some are quite cold, others hot, but there are some very special ones, where the sky agrees with the moon to dress in the best way and impress visually. I took this picture last night while I was clearing my mind in a park near my residence, I could not avoid capturing with my cell phone that beautiful night sky and the moon making presence, I find it amazing how nature is perfect in any way, you just have to observe it and appreciate what it shows us. I hope you like this picture dear friends, I wish you a happy morning or evening.

Is love in our Hearts or in our Brains?
Since we are born and grow up, we have heard that our heart is in charge of feeling love, of helping us to fall in love, however we are downplaying the importance of the brain, because love really starts with it, the simple fact of idealizing yourself with that person, observing him/her, detailing him/her, analyzing what you like about him/her, what you don't like and why you should be with him/her.
The heart is simply our bridge to feel those emotions, but without our brain the magic would not come true, because it is not just saying "I like that person", it is to study, to analyze why you like him/her, why you risk to give all the best of yourself to conquer him/her. We spend our lives romanticizing many things, but we forget the real reason, the truth, the importance of being realistic. Many fall in love because of the physique or the great personality that the ideal person has, but all this falls on our mind, because if she says NO, not even by force you will feel appreciation, so let's be more objective, let our heart speak, express what we feel, but respect our brain, as this great writer once said:

Are we Variciosos?
"The poor man lacks many things; the miser, all things." (Publius Siro)
Many times we fill ourselves with needs, physical, personal and economic, however we must set limits, become greedy to the point of going over what really matters may generate many problems, in life not everything is about money, of course money complements the need, because it gives us stability in every way, but it is worthless to have money, worthless to have wealth if mentally we are poor, if we have nothing to offer or nothing to contribute to the world.
So please let's stop being greedy. Happy afternoon or evening.

Let's Reflect Together
John Amos Comenius, a respected Pedagogue who changed the History of Education, once said:
"Anything that does not communicate meaning cannot be understood or valued, and consequently, it cannot be memorized either."
Unfortunately, many of us think that we are communicating something valuable, that this information is meaningful, but when we think about it, we understand that unfortunately it does not contribute anything positive, that we are just talking for the sake of talking. And that is what happens in the world, many people use these digital spaces to communicate things that do not lack any logic, they only do it to win a few hearts, to feel "Popular", but the reality is different, today we are privileged, we are privileged, we have these digital media to make a change, to influence in a significant way, in a positive way in others, to help those who need help but above all to learn from others, let's not waste that communicating what is not true, what lacks validity, let's think before we act and write please, happy morning or evening beautiful people.

There is nothing more imposing than a Tree, because its beauty and greatness cannot be overshadowed by anything or anyone. This is how we should all be, great, humble and understand that nothing can overshadow who we are.

There are good days, bad days, sunny days and cloudy days. The universe, the earth teaches us in the best way that nothing is the same, that everything is changing and that we will always have very different days. to the previous ones, our duty is to ensure that each occasion is unique, enjoy what we see, and get the most benefit from it. Let's be agile, let's be warriors, let's embrace our present, our reality and let's work So that it can change.
I leave you with this little view, some mountains covered in mist and some clouds ready to wet everyone with their drops of love. Happy day or night beautiful people .

"Flowers always make people better, happier and more useful; they are sunshine, food and medicine for the soul." - (Luther Burbank)
I totally agree with this incredible man, flowers make our soul happy, if you feel sad, if you feel empty, if you feel lonely, go find a flower, sit in front of it, observe it, detail all its beauty and you will see how bitterness, frustration and sadness leave your body, there is no better therapy than surrounding yourself with flowers and contemplate their perfection, that is why I share with you this photo dear friends, happy beginning of the week.

In recent times we spend our lives talking about enemies, many people blame their neighbors, colleagues and even friends, but we have an internal enemy that can destroy us.
Envy
Yes, that invisible enemy that makes us sin, that makes us destroy many people with our tongue, just because we are not as good as them or because we are not as good as them, forgetting that we can work to be better people, work to make that dream we have come true.
It is incredible how Envy leads some people to perform such sad acts, so mediocre and stupid just because others took advantage of life's opportunities, which they did not.

"The human being must live, if only out of curiosity." - Proverb
Many times we complain about our lives, I can understand that many of us do not have that ideal present, full of happiness, tranquility and good fortune, but we are still here for something, so let's focus those energies on something productive, let's be curious, let's not see the glass half full or from the same perspective, everything changes, nothing is forever.
I use these words to accompany this beautiful flower that I captured with my cell phone yesterday, because seeing it makes me want to live, to appreciate what surrounds me.
