Hi Paolo, I loved this short story and all the comments too! I particularly enjoyed Tania’s sharing of author Johann Wolfgang von Goethe’s words, “This holy longing is to live passionate, rather than passive, lives.” Loved that. Work is deeply connected to passion. Our true passions awaken through our every day work…and life without work would indeed be hell! Thanks for sharing this insightful story! I blogged this as well, hope you don’t mind. :)

First I tought you were going for the ‘reincarnation coming up’… but I get it now.

People might want things, things and things. But if they don’t get to do anything to grow themselves and learn during the process, then it’s not a life.

AaaaH! Touche! Touche! I loved it, thank you. If we cannot laugh at and with life and its eccentricities, it will laugh without us.

Sometimes, that is exactly what we humans do. We search for the most comfortable place to stay where grandeur and extravagance is the name of the game. Freedom ain’t in question because we can do whatever we wish to do in any way, whatever time of the day or wherever and whenever we please.

That is life for us.

Biggest mistake! For the beauty of life and the happiness we get out of it is our choice and sometimes our options, well, I mean, more often than not, our alternatives are guised in the meanest and ugliest features that our immediate tendency is to strike the goal with equal meanness and ugliness we shun away from it without knowing that such is our ultimate source of well-being.

We can have the diversion ,i think that it makes us holy ,Here is something from the nineteenth century author Johann Wolfgang von Goethe so beautifully decribes it__ This holy longing is to live passionate,rather than passive,lives.

In the calm water of the love nights
Where you were conceived,where you have conceived,
A strange feeling comes over you
When you see the silent candle burning.

No longer caught up in the obsession of darkness,
A desire for higher love making
Sweeps you upward.

Finally distance does not make you falter,
Flying ,soaring,arriving in magic
And insane for the light,

You are the moth,
And you are gone.

And so long as you do not accept this truth
And be willing to die,so that you might live,
You will always walk this dark earth
A troubled guest ,alone…
blessings Tania

Now I do have to get to my book and finish my editing ,if i am to soar. Thanks for another interesting read ..
