"Life is like a swing that swings ... between a field in the sun and a storm!"
Federico Moccia
There is no doubt that sooner or later fate reserves a toast for each of us. Good things come to everyone when we least expect them. Both for those who deserve it, and for those who don't deserve them that much. Because life is not fair or unfair, but simply a balance of elements.
The important thing is to be able to appreciate the good, beautiful and positive aspects of what happens to us. In other words, you have to be able to appreciate every single moment, even those in which we find ourselves on the ground because a stone has hindered our path.
Sometimes we seem to be overwhelmed by negative things
Don't give up, you still have time to achieve and start again, bury your fears, release your common sense, take flight.
Don't give up because life is like this. Continue the journey, pursue your dreams, melt time, remove the rubble and uncover the sky.
Mario Benedetti
Sometimes it seems that life only has misfortunes in store for us. It is likely that more than reality, it is a feeling, and that the blows that we seem to receive are not dealt in a constant way. However, the ability they have to make us bend is entirely up to us.
That is to say that it is up to us to be strong and to remain standing regardless of the problems we are called to face during our existence. It is therefore enough to be aware of this pain to be able to understand that we have the ability to model aspects of our destiny, if it really exists.
Our people, the beautiful people
The most beautiful people I have met are those who have known defeat, suffering, struggle, loss, those who have managed to find a way to recover after having hit rock bottom. These people have a capacity for appreciation, a sensitivity and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, humility and deep restlessness of love. Beautiful people are not born out of nowhere.
There is no denying the fact that pain makes us aware of how beautiful the world and relationships with other people are, as well as at the same time giving us the possibility to understand that there are many things that are not worth fighting for.
Beautiful people are therefore born from the battles of life, since it is thanks to them that what is really important in life is clearly manifested. This philosophy has prevented their suffering from depriving them of the desire to laugh, to carry on. The impulse that drives them has found it within them.
Our existence is like a cinema screen that projects many different scenes. It may be that the drama overwhelms you from time to time, but at any moment there may be a twist in the script or the film's ending. The fundamental thing is the existence of an element that never disappears: the screen. In a sense it belongs to you, it represents who you really are, while what shapes you as a person are the things that are projected onto you.
We must be very clear in mind that bad moments do not disappear, and that even if it is difficult to fight them, it is we who can tip the scales by preventing adversity from overcoming it. Happiness therefore depends on our ability to accept or not the flow of life, and whether we flow with it ...
