2021-03-17 14:36:00 You wouldn’t call every biped you see on the street human, would you, just because they walk upright and carry their babies in the womb for nine months? You can see how many of them are fish or sheep, are worms or angels, how many are ants, how many are bees! Now every one of them contains the possibility of becoming human, but only when he intuits this possibility, or even learns to bring it at least partly into his consciousness, is it truly his.

2021-03-17 14:28:57 I run after something, I do not name it, the darkness did not give me the observation of its features, I may take risks and call it hope. Perhaps it was really the hope. There is no one more worthy of chasing than him. It is the pure feeling, the feeling that does not get wet, does not drown, does not hide, it is apparent even if you do not see it, it is what gives you the feeling of brotherhood for life, it is that which is not deterred and if you abandon it, it is the one that protects you in your despair, it is your perfect noise, it is the voice that you should train yourself to hear it, even if it is absent. You have to have the ability to imagine it, make it part of you and the vocabulary of your day, from your awakening options, and from the possibilities of your dream. Hope is our invisible master. We do not have to neglect him if he does not do us justice, and we do not question his obedience. And never to think of disobeying him. Hope remains active even if we are deluded into its nap, even if we think that it plays a role as close as possible to us to give up. If we consider despair as a winter, then hope is lit whenever we consider it the long warmth of our winter. Open / Comment

2021-03-15 00:30:19 It seems to me that this disease goes beyond my friend to the whole society and this is a real problem because we let really beautiful things in our present escape and weep ceaselessly about a past that will not return. Then we realize that our present has become past, so we return to screaming and crying. The hobby of crying over the ruins is not limited to our ancestors only. We all cry over the ruins, but we do not enjoy a single moment of what we live in from the houses. it must be destroyed first, to realize that it is wonderful only for the past. One feature is that it has become past, for this we feel nostalgia for it, while the present is everywhere and at every moment, this is why we revive it. Open / Comment

2021-03-14 00:36:23 When you do not know, it becomes possible to respect the other who sees things from another perspective. For example, I understand those who see that the whole idea of death and the aftermath of death is of no use in life, and whoever wants to live happily must live in the moment only. Just as you live the moment of the first kiss in your life. Have you heard that someone is searching for the meaning of life at the moment when his hand touches his lover's waist for the first time?

2021-03-14 00:36:23 Personally, I don't know what is true. The grief of many peoples I have known and of my own country is sacred, as if we completely refuse to see our lives without what we lost. When you do not know, you think, ask, discuss, and stimulate the interviewer to tell you what he imagines in order to compare. (3) Open / Comment

2021-03-14 00:36:23 These are taboos practiced by millions of people on a daily basis, perhaps because the loss of a mother, child, daughter, father, or lover is painful, but I personally understand the religious vision. If you truly believe that the path of the soul to its Lord, then it is very reasonable to contemplate your lover's journey beyond death and rejoice in him. It is reasonable to see that death is the gate of the soul to its Lord and not the gate of the body to the grave. (2) Open / Comment

2021-03-14 00:36:23 Mourning and crying over the dead are forbidden in many religions. In other words, if a person splits his throat and stabs a dead person, then at that hour a person is disobeying God. There are also those who delve into this description and say that the soul remains on its way to its Lord if the family of the dead cries and mourns for him, and even wearing black over the dead is unacceptable.
