“Someone who knows others very well is a wise man; someone who knows himself is a very lucky and happy person.”
We are the reflection of the world we are living in, and, at the same time, the world we are living in is the reflection of our souls and thoughts. The universe could be just a huge mirror. We can see ourselves in it every day, but, unfortunately, it is hard for some of us to understand what we really are. The first question is why ?
We have fears, uncertainties or complexes… bigger or smaller. It’s natural. We are the perfect creation of God especially because we have defects, and, more than this, because we are able to grow better and better; because we can defeat them. But, a big problem of humanity could be the fact that we are living in environments which make us not know our qualities. And, when you do not know who you are it is impossible to become someone or to build something ! As people, we are the owners of the most gorgeous treasures. This asset is somewhere inside of us, and our mission is to discovered it… But, most of us are hiding the best things in the dark, oblivion and uncertainty. I think it is amazing how our mind can change us, from great persons into just simple ones. The social position is not a trump, on the contrary. Our family, friends and beautiful feelings are the only ones which support us in our perpetual search of identity. So, when we do not have a friendly or lovely soul beside us we are not able to see the truth in the mirror of the universe.
Some of the people who see themselves just as an inverted reflection of what they really are can defeat their insecurities without help. Others do not and need someone who really believes in their hearts. The person who is able to make an unhappy man see and appreciate the soul and the mind he has is a wise man. Anyway, with or without help, each of us can be a true king or queen in his/ her spiritual world. We are able to change our lives, we are able to be who we really are, we are able to become someone and to build anything just using our mind. It is like in King’s George VI story. Lionel helped “Bertie” to destroy the demons which were in his mind and soul, firstly for himself and secondly because he had the destiny of a whole nation in his hands.
In brief, no one says that it is easy to be yourself and to believe in you qualities and even in your defects, but you have to try again and again. It is like Thomas Edison said: ”I didn’t fail one thousand times. The bulb was an invention which needed one thousand steps.”
