Quiroga - 248

 Eternal and temporary

Your existential presence between heaven and earth is short-lived, mainly because we all begin to better understand what we need to do while we exist when we are close to passing away, but, at the same time, we are capable of dreaming of eternity, and that is not the fruit of imagination that must be summarily discarded, it is the fruit of our essence being eternal, never having been born nor subject to death.

It is this paradox that our consciousness needs to deal with, because in the wide spectrum of possibilities between being eternal and temporary, we gather experiences that add wisdom to our actions, a value that is not appreciated by the brutal understanding that there is only material existence to experience, and that all speculation regarding eternity must be summarily rejected.

Advice and guidance feels really good because people offer it willingly and happily. However, you must respect the practical voice, and if they are not useful in practice, it is better to get rid of them quickly.
