The way to move on

I guess it all comes to that sense of urgency which keeps us moving on. Regardless of all that you´ve done before there´s always more, if you keep an open mind.

When I think of my own life and how I do everyday, it´s hard for me to complain, honestly. Putting all the troubles that come and go aside for a moment, so far I´ve been living a quiet, comfortable life. I get to do the things that I like, such as making a living out of teaching music and hopefully by making music in the near future too. I think of all the successful projects I´ve came up with once and now have come true, the way everything developed up to this point (I sound like the most famous person ever telling his story, but I´m not and I´m glad that´s the reality of it. lol!). I´m just referring to that feeling of achievement, and how satisfying it is to share this treasure, which is music, with everyone out there who may be interested in listening to and enjoy it as well.

Besides music, it´s also gratifying to see that in one way or another, one is capable of making a difference by following the path of honesty, especially with ourselves. I mean true honesty, and that goes deeper than the general meaning human beings give to that word. Being honest isn´t always trying to kindly explain people they´re wrong, if that´s the case. I´m far from trying to discredit this action, on the contrary, it has a lot of value and speaks well of anyone who cares about helping somebody else to be reasonable. But right now I´m meaning honesty in terms of admitting that there may be something making life really hard regardless of all the positive aspects that could be found within it. That´s how one is then able to move forward, and by becoming free of this unexplainable burden, that serene state of mind achieved involuntarily and effortlessly becomes a good influence to others.

Key circumstances are the engine of continuity. I said before that complaining would be a hypocritical act on my behalf because there´re people in worse conditions than me. But anyway, there´s always a need in life, a feeling which says you need something else. Let´s say that too much comfort isn´t good either. As I like to say, in order to enjoy having a rest, you have to sweat a little bit before. :)

Through the years I´ve learnt to keep myself at ease. It´s a great advantage when dealing with these stressful days we´re living. But not everything is clear to me, and that´s obvious because, like anybody else, I´m just a human being seeking peace and motivation, something that makes me move on towards wherever it takes.
