powdered glass “Everyone sees the unseen in proportion to the clarity of his heart, and that depends upon how much he has polished it. Whoever has polished it more sees more - more unseen forms become manifest to him."
-Jalal ad-Din Rum
Bien... I can certainly articulate endless excuses to justify the silence of the past 7 months I have never doubted my potential to devise explanations that can be convincing. The truth is that I keep the excuses and reasons to remain silent the time.
This time the author does not transcribe words to justify their silence and allowing this post to clear his own glass.
have ever tried to deal with fogged glass?
abroad have attempted to distinguish through a dusty glass?
I've done.
The result is disastrous and is obviously the glasses through which we see abroad act as a filter, obscuring the images when they want and beautify the landscape when we need it. I think it works the same way with the soul and our perception of life and people, and through our crystal we know the world appreciate the figures we recognize, know new images, observe people and we look to us.
probably not realize the state of cleanliness of our inner glass, in a complex way is to recognize that something is wrong with us so we should be much simpler to think that people are wrong that the world is gray and that certain images are dark or much more complicated than they might actually be ... effect of powdered glass, of course. Then it is impossible to see things as they really are, we could not correctly describe a landscape where our glass is dirty, we might mistake the beauty of trees, sky color and size of the mountains. The vague description of a landscape may not pose a greater problem than the same imprecision but ... What happens when it comes to images with feelings, voices and stories?.
Hayes there ... others looking through a dusty glass. Great people can now go virtually unnoticed, good people may seem harmless and enemies become friends through this particular glass. Our reactions and attitudes toward the world and people around us are disturbed by the images we perceive and the result, like trying to driving a vehicle with a glass, darkly ... is disastrous.
The problem is not found in other people and hardly what we find in ourselves until it happens ... until a finger, a cloth, a brush reaches our glass and the small space that is clean we can see the clarity ... such clarity that seems a result of those storms, similar to that clarity that comes with the sun at dawn. The cleanup is not easy, certainly at that time the damage will be enormous and there are even some that are impossible to repair but ... also this is part of the storm by which all must pass through sometime.
Clarity hurts, it hurts the eyes and awakens the sleeping soul, it is difficult to awaken, to adapt to living with light and heat after staying in shadows. Like the stages of life, everything happens and as we adapt to situations gray can also adapt to the colors we can always learn from mistakes and try again, remaining alert to the state of the lens through which we know the eventually polished exterior and trying to keep the dust return to cloud our vision.
The clarity with which we see the world depends on the clarity of our soul ... stained soul resentments and fears can never recognize the light of true love and have it lit before him.
