Empty minds, empty bowls
Summer vacation is almost over, school is about to start in less than two days, and now is the time to start over, to take another step into the future.
Of course the end of vacation is sad for kids, but I always tell them if they want to finish College they have to walk all the way, there is no shortcuts, simple as that!
And that though made me think about how our choices affects our future forever! Our life choices determine who we will be, where we will be and how we will be. We need to be alert, we need full fill our minds wisely, use our time in the best way and work hard to accomplish our goals, yes goals, not dreams. Dreams are for the dreamers, goals are for the ones who wake up everyday and go for it! We can't expect to get what we wish for, we only can expect what we work for it, another " simple as that"!
In the planet Venezuela we see and heard so much about how people managed to survive the economical crises. The Country is suffering so much, there is a huge lack of food and other goods too. But also there is a gigantic part of society who doesn't go for it, who waits for coins instead of work hard and improve. Their minds aren't full fill wisely, they have no knowledge that everything they do and everything they don't do is affecting them so hard. Empty minds! The worst weapon a society can have.
I don't know if one day this story will end successfully, the only thing I know so far about this story is the needing to change for good. Fill up minds with good stuff is not an easy task, but I want ask to myself and to you: " who's job is to fill up the minds?" The answer we all know, right?
Before I leave I'd like to share an Elie Weisel thought, "... The opposite of love is not hate, its indifference."
With love,
