Very adorable 8 day practice. Just to reflect about it, blessings, I noticed myself smiling. Think about blessings is powerful! Overflows the heart in fraternal love. “Let the gratefulness overflow into blessing all around you.” Like a river, flowing to the sea…
I would continuous do the same I doing now. I believe in the learning, new chances in every moment. And we’re not promised tomorrow.
When I notice the violence, hungry children, loneliness… I ask myself, How is it possible open my heart? Some days it is so hard! My heart has scars and some are not healed. I don’t want compare, for example, I’m grateful because I live in a safe place and I have food and others don’t. Or living alienated, ignoring the life around me.

When I notice the violence, hungry children, loneliness… I ask myself, How is it possible open my heart? Some days it is so hard! My heart has scars and some are not healed. I don’t want compare, for example, I’m grateful because I live in a safe place and I have food and others don’t. Or living alienated, ignoring the life around me. Every single day is a special and unique, in order to learn about open my heart. I believe it mean live with faith that everything is perfect, respecting the destiny of each person. I really feel that sometimes I can’t, but it’s necessary. Because when I don’t share love, fraternal love, I get sick. The open heart giving love and compassion is my medicine.
I think the beauty is what I can feel with my heart. It’s a daily practice; see and find the beauty is like to search a treasures.
For example, last Sunday my dad was drunk, he is alcoholic. In first moment, when I looked his face and I saw he “walking crooked” I really felt sadness. But, I tried to find the love. I looked again and it happened! I could see my dad, his soul, a man marked by the struggles of life.
Despite the pain and everything involved,...
Despite the pain and everything involved, a story of life, my dad, a life, beauty.
Remembering the last daily questions, I realize every people help me when plant fruits, vegetables and flowers, reap them. Every people who work in order to provide the order and organization in the cities, states, countries, hospital… The people working in the factories producing every I need.
Thank you for this amazing meditation! Every day my thought about privilege is: I have access to running water and a privite bath in my house. All gifts mentioned here is completely truth and I notice them, I should kneel right now and giving thanks for all. Today I spoke again with my students about our ability to see, read, write, walk… I asked them, please, go and notice this beautiful world.
I was ironing clothes and I thinking about every people involved in the process… it’s really extraordinary thinking in the details with appreciation and gratitude.
Nothing is promised to us, is truly strong. Just to know it, sometimes I feel anxiety and I would like to do everything in a different way. But I can’t leave, I need to learn to be patient.
Compassion and kindness
My grandmother and my aunt Iolanda.
Being available, observing, respecting and not judging.
