“The important thing is to live today. Yesterday is gone and tomorrow may not come. ”(Chico Xavier)

“The important thing is to live today. Yesterday is gone and tomorrow may not come. ”(Chico Xavier)


In these times we all live divided between the will to resist the threat of an “unknown disease”, and the growing fear of tomorrow's uncertainties. They tell us that there is more time to think, others say to reflect, as the best way to find the best solutions to problems that seem impossible, but what will it be to think about the same subject over and over again?
 The truth is that we feel that the universe has entered us at home and sat us on a sofa, which means that we have all become much more susceptible to the susceptibility of others. It seems to be a candle lit in the dark that goes inside us, and we are induced to read and sometimes to reread, everything that seems to us again, sometimes it is not so much, in these circumstances it impresses me a little, knowing the risk that we are all definitely seeing growing in our daily lives, and repeatedly, several times a day, which seem to want to “suffocate” us, every time they speak, we only hear complaints and complaints that everything is wrong, in an omission to which Seneca (philosopher) would have replied: "No wind blows in favor of those who do not know where to go". Perhaps it was, because they omit that, this is the path that we all have to continue to take, and unfortunately there are no shortcuts, such as the need for an “ethics of responsibility”, as far as possible, that such “experts and opinion makers” avoid in the near future, make public statements, which, by not solving any of the "alleged" problems they denounce, aggravate the state of anxiety and insecurity of a large part of the citizens. "Silence is worth gold when you can't find a good answer" (Muhammad Ali)
We have to go back to our lives, we cannot fail to do so, but also, we know that one of these days, the balance sheets will begin. Some will highlight good practices, others will highlight errors. But who, in the face of such unknown adversity, could take action without a margin of error in its effects? Errors? "Errare humanum est", as Confucius said: “The only way to not make mistakes is to do nothing. This, however, is certainly one of the biggest mistakes that could be made in a lifetime. ”
Let's look at the side of the glass as half full (positive): There are no absolute certainties, we need to know how to live with doubt and uncertainty. We need to lose the fear of making mistakes, of accepting our falls, of seeing what they teach us and ... Moving on or to the side ... But moving on and discovering more about us, about others, about life. Each error gives us strategic learning information, in the sense of non-repetition. We have not yet passed this stage and we are already told that, possibly, we will have a new "dose". So write down what we did well and where we went wrong, us and the others. And learn. Until then, we can only watch this up and down and not disarm our simple civic participation. And, also, we feel that anything can happen - it's just another day - and, we will be able to deal with the situation, but we started to have some perception that, everything can happen in 20 years !! 10 years! or next year… ..and it will be fatal! or in the words of Carl Jung: “Life happens in a balance between joy and pain. Whoever does not venture beyond reality will never find the truth. ”
