Don't look for happiness in passions, but in your heart!

If you really want to do something, you will find a way. If you don;t, you'll find an excuse!

Sometimes it's okay to assume risks. Today, I've watched the record from the graduation's prom...it was great, but the greatest thing was the speech of my favourite teacher...she said we should assume our life, with good and bad occurences; to value each moment and be happy they've existed; to smile and look forward, learning from each thing that interacted with us.
Looking back, how many of us didn't say they would return back in time, just to have the chance of changing something. But, being so perfect, would be us still able to become better? To cry, laugh, socialise, learn and be taught? No...because NOBODY's perfect. Indeed, everyone is looking for perfection, or at least, a higher level than the counterparts, but, why don't we just stop; reflect and afterwards enjoy life?
So, this is my advice: enjoy life, as I do now (tomorrow it's my niece's baptism:X...so...family reunion!)

Eat, pray, love

Everybody is born for a certain purpose, we simply cannot find that "thing" just clapping our hands and wait like an order... we have to fight, to desire, to beg, to ask for divine help, and, in the end, obtain what we want, being satisfied and simply happy.
I think I found that "something" that would make me happy: travelling across the world, reading till sunrise about cultures, Zen, karma, yoga, sophisticated Russian society, English stilish society, just learning, learning, learning, get into people that are in the same place with you, speaking to you, for a reason, this is for certain!!!
And, of course, opening your heart, loving the world, the people in it, admiring your brother, relative, friend, mum, the 70 years old neighbour, the mad championship. Just engoing human-beings, being surrounded by them, giving back in response to that simple interacting fact a piece of your attention, gratitude, love. No tears, no regrets!
P.S: Hope we could all find the inner equilibrium!

Learning

It is said that people learn all the time. Indeed, travelling, run into interesting persons in different moments of the life cyrcle transform each of us in something...for ones for better, for the others for worse, and few stay just the same.
The main problem is what you actually do from what you become. The best solution is sharing your impressions, thoughts, even if sometimes it gives you the false sensation that nobody really followed what you have just said.
The world has become so complex that we feel so lost, no moral support, no emotional involvment...
But, let's just make a test: stay positive for an entirely day and see what happens...be the one who intiates the change you wanna see in the world (like Ghandi said once). Keep your normal actions somewhere in the air, try to become a better person. Maybe we cannot change a whole world, but at least 0,00000000000001% of it. Why? But Why not? Let's be better, life take-carring, offer our help to the others, withaut asking for phisical reward.
Why did I say all of it? Because it happended to me this month (October, yes). Losing my hope would have been the most stupid thing I could make, but ... I didn't, I just waited for the "sunshine", and, it was a mixture pf positively energies that gathered around me. Why? Because I believed that we could be better...we were, we are, we'll be!
