GRACIAS


Thank you for coming into my life

For showing me good times

For being the shoulder I needed

For immersing me in laughter and joy

For sharing your thoughts



Thank you for the free lessons you taught me

For sharing your bliss

For sharing your gloom

For showing yourself



Thank you for teaching me the art of betrayal

For showing me the opposite of love

For showing me the risks of falling in love

For preparing me for the worst

For bringing out emotions I never thought I had



Thank you for changing me

For making me appreciate the good in bad

For making me realize how strong I am

Thank you for making me the best of persons

I hope I made you a better person too

And above all, I hope I left you a grateful soul.

Our emotional body is wounded and infected with emotional poison that manifests in the form of fear, anger, hate, sadness, envy and hypocrisy amongst other emotions that practically make humans suffer. Where did we get this disease. Suffice to say, all humans are mentally sick with this same disease and this world might just be a huge mental hospital. What hurts the most is not only the effects of this sickness but the fact that this disease has been with and within us for thousands of years such that it has been normalized in all facets of life. The medical literature, psychiatric literature and the society at large has accepted the disease as normal which has even led to the education system adapting such a norm and instilling it in us from a tender age. We have even come up with names such as paranoia, psychosis, schizophrenia just to come to terms with our illness but what it all means is that our reasoning mind is s...
