“My Lord God, I have no idea where I am going. I do not see the road ahead of me. I cannot know for certain where it will end. Nor do I really know myself, and the fact that I think that I am following your will does not mean that I am actually doing so. But I believe that the desire to please you does in fact please you. And I hope I have that desire in all that I am doing. I hope that I will never do anything apart from that desire. And I know that if I do this you will lead me by the right road though I may know nothing about it. Therefore will I trust you always though I may seem to be lost and in the shadow of death. I will not fear, for you are ever with me, and you will never leave me to face my perils alone.”  Thomas Merton

I want to change. Change before is too late.

I want to dream. Dream and Achieve

Fulfill my dreams,  Become who I am supposed to be

I want to live. I need to achieve my fate

I need to escape from this cage

I need to know what it is that matters most

I must strive each day, forget about fear and rage

I need to find my place for today I am lost

I fight the dark voices that since childhood I have fed

I try so hard to win my mind back

But the force and the will to win I lack

Being Afraid that I will end up dead

The battle inside me makes me weak

I feel I will end up losing my mind

In my heart, everything seems bleak

Desolation, is all I can find

Before darkness ends up consuming me

Before I join the land beneath my feet

Before my heart gives its last beat

Before my eyes close and I cease to be.

Suddenly I see a ray of clarity

I am blessed with a glimpse of sanity

I have for so long been living for myself

I have not cared for anyone else

The voices tell me there is only darkness inside me

I start to think they might be right

So I pray to the Lord with all my might

That I become who I was meant to be

Fear haunts me but it also haunts my brothers

If my heart is to stop one day

Let it be that I will find my way

By giving my life to others

Darkness and rage may haunt this world

But They will not rob me from the love I want to give

Even with Darkness and rage, thunder and cold

I will rise up and fight to live

The Good Shepherd never stops calling me

And I will finally answer His call

As darkness is forever banished from our land

From my own ashes I will once again stand

Felicidad

En el mundo todos buscamos encontrar la felicidad. Esto es una verdad absoluta. La pregunta entonces deberia ser por que solo muy pocas personas la encuentran. En nuestros intentos fallidos por ser felices, nos encontramos desesperados y es ahi donde radica el problema. Buscamos desaparecer nuestro sentimiendo de desesperacion que en realidad es solo un reflejo del vacio que sentimos. Es entonces cuando queremos llenar ese vacio de la manera mas rapida possible, o algunos buscan simplemente algo que les evite pensar en su vacio y con mucha razon, pues muchos pierden la cordura obsesionarse con su vacio. Buscamos entonces llenar nuestro vacio en cosas que nos dan gratificacion instantanea, sin darnos cuenta que aquellas cosas no pueden llenar nuestro vacio pues asi como el placer que ofrecen es instantaneo, instantaneamente se van y nuestro vacio, que solo se puede llenar con lo infinito, se queda… Esta es la paradoja del ser humano; busca hacerse libre haciendose esclavo de todo. Entonces uno se deberia preguntar, donde se encuentra la felicidad? La verdadera libertad? Y la respuesta es tan sencilla y tan compleja al mismo tiempo. El amor es el camino hacia la felicidad, es la libertad absoluta. Solo amando verdaderamente nos hacemos completamente libres de toda esclavitud y solo amando nos hacemos plenamente felices.
