It
seems incredible how long it can take to travel the short distance that takes
us away from being the way we do not want to be.

I
suppose that vicious behaviors always seem to be the best shortcuts, which is
why we resort to behaviors that have become tics of our arrogance. We do not
realize that these shortcuts are, in fact, the walls of the labyrinth that
leads us to the heart of the darkness of our character; and it distances us
from the rhythmic heartbeat of our person.
Life
is a walk that does not always lead us to dead ends. Many times these walks
lead to a room that was initially dark. There we just have to wait, like a
light bulb, for the right touch to turn us on and will prompt us to get out of
our self-labyrinth.
One
day, fed up with tachycardia, you will stop moving in meanders and resume your
step. Your only direction will be to get away from places where you don't want
to be. Hopefully, one day on any corner, you will come across someone with whom
you can accommodate your life rhythm. Someone with whom these difficult times
we live in shall become memorable, by sharing experiences of sugar or salt.
Together with her you will try and share the magic of everyday life: you will look
for your reflection in her smile, you will soak up her perfume in each shared
sunrise... And, above all, you will continue learning and enjoying moments that are still unique because they are
repeated by her side.
