I WANT TO

I want to change lives.

Not acting as a super hero but simply acting human.

Human enough to have compassion for those in need.

Human enough to give love to those who feel unloved.

Not to feed my ego.

But simply because I suffer too.

A. Garcia

CONTRADICTION IS

Contradiction is widely viewed as something negative

When someone is trying to become a “new” person – that is contradiction

The new biopsychosocial factors necessary for change – becoming

But it’s not something negative

Think of it this way: an addict is on a road to recovery, they need to surely contradict

Their thoughts and actions to become someone different than who they are; the

Habits and cognitions that they’ve developed throughout the years of addiction

Simply: from what is and what is to become

Therefore, contradiction isn’t always negative, contradiction is necessary for growth

and improvement

NO MATTER

No matter where I end up

In a corner office or the corner of a street

In the center of someone’s heart or in the center of loneliness

No matter what

I will always write

I will always feel the passion when I write

I will always be one with my words

No matter where I end up

SOMETIMES IT’S

Sometimes it’s too much

Feeling too deeply, the vibes, the eye contact

Falling for the soul, not the physical

Falling for the way you carry yourself, not what you carry

Not having to undress to feel completely naked, learning each other’s deepest fears

and dreams

All I need is to fall in love with your mind, loving your body comes after

I’ll love it like it’s a masterpiece

If you’re ever robbed from me, I wouldn’t know what art is anymore

Sometimes it’s too much, to love like this

But I realize I never want to lose my way, it’s worth too much

BELIEVE NOTHING

Believe nothing on the faith of traditions,

even though they have been held in honor

For many generations and in diverse places.

Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it.

Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past.

Do not believe what you yourself have imagined,

persuading yourself that a God inspires you.

Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests.

After examination, believe what you yourself have tested

and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.

Buddha

BEING SEEN

Being seen different is no longer a deficit

Being judged because of my beliefs

Beliefs that I’ve studied and analyzed

I wasn’t just told to believe in them

What I believe in resonates perfectly with my being

Blindly protesting unverifiable notions is what I’m supposed to do?

But avoiding the mega, what is around us everywhere we go in this world, which is science

I refuse to live my life in that matter, no matter how short it may be, I’ll lead my life my way

It doesn’t belong praising a tarnished system, determining whether I am valuable or not

I know I am valuable because I am human

Made up by stardust and atoms, just like every other human in this divided world
