THE BEST STORIES ARE THE TOPSsteemCreated with Sketch.

I often hear people saying that they would do everything "exactly the same" if they started their life again. If it is simply an allusion to how they learned from their own mistakes and how they helped them to get to where they are, I understand. Yes, sometimes mistakes are valuable teachers who offer us important lessons, although life has other means such as perception and love, which allow us to shorten time and pave the way. They are the same lessons offered by error, although softly supplied; in the end it is learned by taste or by imposition. The choice is always ours. However, in most cases, I see some friends verbally supporting the repetition of the life path of shame, denial, or pride. It is a pity, because not accepting our own carriage way will be impeded to understand who we really are and, as a consequence, we will not be able to see the transformations that we must make in ourselves, delaying the evolutionary journey and with it, the peace of the fullness that both we long for.

I review my history and grateful for the hard lessons that the errors have offered me, I perceive that I could have done differently. People who hurt, circled around that I gave for stubbornness, time and energy wasted in situations that had no importance and so on. The list is huge. It is true that this was my level of consciousness at the time and I could not perceive that I could do it any other way. Yes, it is always possible to do things differently and better. Although I am still very far from where I have to go, I am no longer the one who left. My way of seeing and living changed. Does not this happen to all of us?

And what did I do with my past? Especially with those chapters of which I now have in my mind the full awareness that they might have been different? I decided to hug them and be grateful for my story. Instead of being paralyzed by the mistake I accepted the responsibility, repaired what was possible and went ahead with a new approach to everything and everyone. No one should be ashamed; everything in the universe is in eternal evolution and we are all part of it.

Reinventing yourself every day is a demand of the path. Delight in the transformation that takes place in the path of wisdom and with the beauty of love that will infect you whenever you do your best. The most fantastic stories are those of overcoming.

Imagine a film in which a child is born in a home full of love and with all the conditions for a healthy life. From early on, his parents, evolved souls, give him wise lessons of love, tolerance, compassion, within a beautiful code of existential ethics and noble moral values. This child develops in the good and in the light, learns quickly and always spreads seeds of joy wherever he goes. When he reaches adulthood he embraces medicine as an instrument to bring healing and well-being to all people, spreading the happiness and joy that exist within him. Without a doubt a beautiful life story that surely I would like to see.

Imagine another film in which a child is born in an environment governed by discord, impatience, absence of moral indicators and reasonable conditions of subsistence. It grows in the wild streets of big cities, surrounded by an inverted code of ethics, moral values ​​distorted or nonexistent, where the instinct of survival is imposed on the most noble and subtle feelings. Minor robberies, acts of violence that he practices and suffers, irresponsible sex, are common pages in his adolescence between hunger and, mainly, the absence of love. At first he slowly perceives in the least acts that, when he proceeds different and lets the best of himself flourish, a loving feeling for all people and things creates a pleasantly slight sphere around him that seems to lift him off the ground. He has the feeling that life reacts in exact measure to his actions. It feels different, everything changes. Little by little he begins to practice more and more such attitudes that he discovered asleep in the highest drawer of his heart, until he makes the decision to reinvent himself. The person he was no longer fits within himself, because he needs to be another. Then there is the transmutation of which the medieval alchemists spoke and metaphorically transforms lead into gold. When you change your way of being, the world also changes. Gradually, people and common situations in their life move away giving rise to others. He decides to return to the classrooms, devotes himself to studies, begins to understand that knowledge expands the vision and, after failed attempts and innumerable difficulties, gets a seat in a law university. After a few years of untiring struggle he becomes a merciful judge and heals all those who cross his path, using tools such as truth and justice, joyfully planting the seed of hope in himself and in everyone. Another beautiful movie that I would love to see.

In the absurd hypothesis of seeing only one film, which one would you choose? Although they are two beautiful love stories, my choice would fall on the latter. The stories of overcoming have fascinated mankind forever, since they are the proof of its evolution. In fact, the history of the world is told through the little stories of ordinary people, like mine and yours. The great characters we know in books are just more visible reflections of the shift towards a new level of consciousness already sedimented in the inmost of all.

Therefore there is no unpleasant path. They are the curves and difficulties of the road that project the beauty of the path in each of us, coloring the landscape as we change our way of being, reflecting every decision we make. Just be willing to see with other eyes and have the courage, wisdom and love to do differently. As an angel who was recently incarnated among us said: "It is impossible to rewrite the past, but we can build a different future."

Embrace your story without victimization or embarrassment, take advantage to know yourself better, accept mistakes as lessons, open to the mastery of love dormant in your heart, allow the courage that resides in your warrior soul to operate in you the essential transmutations every day and everyday. Understand that everything, absolutely everything, can be different and better is the ticket for the next season.
