"I have on me all the dreams of the world." (Fernando Pessoa)

"I have on me all the dreams of the world." (Fernando Pessoa) Sometimes, I think we all go through this, in our lifetime, our dreams are more like a "house of cards", with a small "blow" they crumble!!! There is, however, a reality that is always beyond our imagination, as we do not always realize that our imagination only goes as far as we want, but it never goes to reality. Arriving here, we have to admit our questions – what are we doing here? What are we doing here? There are moments that life teaches us to be two, being one and vice versa. Because nothing is really that simple. As William Faulkner said, “The ultimate wisdom is to have dreams big enough to keep track of them while we chase them.” We all have the perception that the greatness of a human being is not in how much he thinks he knows, but in how much he is aware that he does not yet know, perhaps that is why, as René Descartes said, he made the decision to “fake it” that all the things that had hitherto entered my mind were no more true than the illusions of my dreams.” Since dreams do not determine the place where we are going to arrive, they produce the necessary force to get us out of the place where we are. I once read (I cannot specify where, or who said it) that “humans are the only animals that understand that they are not immortal”, so that it is very clear that we do not intend to show what this one is “ truth”, but perhaps it is an approximation of the truth of what already exists within us, because as William Shakespeare said, “we know what we are, but we do not know what we can be.” We have to recognize that all this, in addition to being able to inspire us, can change our opinion about different things in life. Sometimes, or almost always, words will help us discover the great power we have to live our life with all the good that the world has to offer, in the here and now, as Anaïs Nin said:“ Our life is largely made up of dreams. You need to link them to action.” In these times, as always in other times, many people still haven't realized that the present is all we have and they "forget" to enjoy it. The past is a set of memories that is part of our history and personality, and the future is an expectation of promise of fulfillment and salvation - in both cases, it is an illusion. According to Tolle, the surest way to waste time in our lives is to believe that the future is more important than our present moment. Recognizing and appreciating the present instills in our moments a simpler sense of quality of life, affection and love. "I'm nothing. I will never be anything. I can't want to be anything. Apart from that, I have in me all the dreams in the world.” (Álvaro de Campos/Fernando Pessoa) They can take everything from us, but they can never take away our dreams, when we are willing to believe in them. We need to close our eyes and look at who we are, search using our soul and not our eyes, ears or hands. We can learn many things without even realizing it. As Fernando Pessoa said: “To kill the dream is to kill ourselves. It's mutilating our soul. The dream is what we have that is really ours, that is impenetrably and unassailably ours.”
