For This Life That Has Given Us So Much

Although sometimes you think that things did not go quite right for you.
That you deserved something more or better.
Success is not having achieved what you set out to do.
Success is staying here.

Here.
On this huge planet that is abandoned every day.
In these territories traveled by pain and disease.
But also for beauty and love.

I don’t know if you ever feel like sending it all to hell.
To stop doing the right thing or what is expected of you.
To flee.
Start again.

A place where no one knows who you are.
Not even you.
But you can’t escape from yourself.
Wherever you go, you go with you.

So you better start getting along with who you are.
To accept and forgive you.
You’re not alone.
You are not alone.

We are all afraid.
Fear of being rejected or of dying.
Fear of ending up without anyone.
But that can never happen.

Because we are companions of the world.
We are beings that will only be here once.
So we better start giving thanks.

For coinciding in this space and time.
For every bud, shore and wind moving the glasses.
For the times that we were loved and loved.

And for all this life.
How much, how much.
He has given us.
