Quiroga - 98

 INGENUITIES

It would be too naive to bet our chips on the belief that the strength of thoughts and desires would be enough to make our intentions happen, and even more naive would be to imagine that the construction of life experience depended exclusively on our willpower.

It is clear that not everything is within everyone's reach, nor are the circumstances the same for everyone on this beautiful and scared planet.

So, not so much to heaven and not so much to hell, because it is naive to imagine that willpower combined with thoughts and desires would build reality, and perhaps it is not only naive, but also dangerous, because it becomes a new argument to discriminate the people between those who have willpower and overcome their circumstances, and those who, for various reasons, cannot do so.

Thinking carefully, being selective with our desires and using willpower, it is undeniable that these behaviors work true miracles, but it turns out that there are also countless factors that do not start with us, because we, as individuals, are not the beginning of reality, we are just a part of something colossal, made of cosmogonic currents of Life that circulate through us and beyond us.

If we do not start from the principle of the most real reality, and insist that the principle of reality is individual, we will inevitably one day find our face against the wall, due to our naivety.

Deservedly so, by the way, to stop being muggles.
