ADIÓS 2024 / GOODBYE 2024
"Prepárate para lo peor,
espera lo mejor,
y acepta lo que venga"
‘Prepare for the worst,
hope for the best,
and accept whatever comes’.
Durante estos días, no se me ocurre nada mejor que hacer, que intentar despedir este año con una sonrisa, aunque resulte un tanto forzada.
Y es que ha sido tan severo conmigo, ¡que me tiene exhausta!
Ciertamente, han sido muchos los buenos ratos que me ha regalado, pero tan pocos en los últimos meses, que parece que estoy cursando un master en "Resiliencia Aplicada".
Y encima, ¡no hago otra cosa que ver lechuzas y búhos azules por todos lados!
Últimamente, tengo la sensación de que mi vida se parece cada día más a una desafiante e interminable kriya de Yoga kundalini.
Un fuerte abrazo.
There are years from which you don´t say goodbye, you stampede.
That's how I welcomed the year that is ending today, by launching desperately!
If this 2024 that ends today has taught me anything, it is that it is not enough to resolve to leave the past alone...
Besides, you have to stand firm and work very hard to keep it from interfering, because it is always lurking to poke its finger in the wound!
As for all the lessons I have received, I hope to keep them in mind for the coming year. Among them outsand following:
To remember that my top priority is always and always will be to cultivate myself,
that I must focus more on the sowing than the reaping,
that I must strive to see the treasure that hides in all adversity
and that the word discipline ceases to be synonymous with punishment, and becomes your greatest ally, if you transform it into a verb and put it into practice.
As for today, I can think of nothing better to do than to say goodbye to this year with a smile, even if it is a little forced.
And this year has been so severe that I'm exhausted!
Certainly, it has given me many good times, but so few in the last three months that I feel like I'm studying for a master's degree in ‘Applied Resilience’.
And on top of that, I see nothing but blue owls everywhere...
Lately I have the feeling that my life is more and more like a challenging and never-ending kundalini yoga kriya.
And thank goodness I can see it that way because it somehow comforts me!
Comparing my current existence to a demanding yoga session not only helps me to detach myself from the stories I tell myself, to laugh more at myself and everything that happens, but it also comforts me...
It reminds me that, as exhausting as it is to live, life has its cosmic moments and specific times!
How fortunate that what hurts us doesn't last forever, and how wrong it is that we suffer so much for holding on to what we love, knowing that we can't hold on to it either!
This leads me to the conclusion that to come out of both a demanding asana and any external event unscathed, all we can do is....
Concentrate on our breathing, keep our posture upright, push ourselves to the maximum without harming ourselves, disregard any result, and persist every minute as if it were the last, so as not to give up too soon!
Afterall, we all know that after any storm the long time sun awaits for us!
