Humans perception of life

"Stop trying to be less of who you are. Let this time in your life cut you open and drain all of the things that are holding you back."

― Jennifer Elisabeth, Born Ready: Unleash Your Inner Dream Girl

"No dirt can touch me, like an ocean, everything that comes to me becomes clean."

― Debasish Mridha

What should I write about? There are so many things that I could write, so many stories, but searching for my papers yesterday, I found a drawing that reminds me of an old story that my father once told me.

Every person in this life has a river. An ocean is like you normally understand and feel things.

So this is the story

the was two old farms, in this farm there are two rivers, one of the rivers was clean, the owner always makes sure, nothing could make that river dirt since he uses to drink of that water, the animals, all the plants, the all farm, the life of the farm was basically in that old river.

The other farm was not concerned about taking care of his own river, so normally it was just a normal river.

So he told me.

One day, the farm that was concerned too much about his farm's health was walking and fall into the dirt river of the other farm. He could not clean himself. The other farm told him, go into your river. But he should not do that. Once if he gets into the river, he will make his river dirt. The same way is when you respond to any offense, and normally you should make sure you will clean your hands, but not in your river because once you do the same thing, you're polluting your soul. The only one who gets contaminated is you and only you. So make sure not to contaminate the river of your soul.

Let your soul clean, do not put dirty hands in your own river.

Make sure that the way you perceive life is in a good way. Get good things. Otherwise, your farm, your soul, will be contaminated, the animals, the plants, nature already. So how are your perception of life? How are you reading others? Normally the way we ready, people talk more about ourselves than us. Of course, you should not understand everyone, that's not your job, but if your soul is polluted, you will find a lot of bad things in others, when in fact you are just talking about yourself, something inside.

So make sure everything inside you is clean. Try to perceive the good things. Otherwise, your river will be dirt, and consequently, the plants, the nature of your farm, inside of you will die or be contaminated.

Look into yourself, do not put dirt hands inside of your own water. Try to understand why your soul feel contaminated.

A lot of people wonder why they don't feel peace or anything good when they are sleeping or alone. It is normal to feel happy when you are surrounded. But you know the health of your soul when you're sleeping or just by yourself. Because most of the time, like humans, we perceive the bad things, but if you try to perceive the good things, little by little, your soul will feel good, and consequently, the health of your soul✨

How is going your perception of others and your life?

"Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves."

― Carl Gustav Jung

"Humans see what they want to see."

― Rick Riordan, The Lightning Thief

"Because one believes in oneself, one doesn't try to convince others. Because one is content with oneself, one doesn't need others' approval. Because one accepts oneself, the whole world accepts him or her."

― Lao Tzu

"Change the way you look at things, and the things you look at change."

― Wayne W. Dyer

"For the good of your soul, make sure to let your inner ocean clean"

"Good morning, good afternoon, good night. Whatever time you're reading this, have a good day."✨
