Thousand Million Butterflies

During our childhood there was always someone who told us that things like money, power, popularity and social recognition weren´t what gave us happiness. That they aren´t the most important things in life. From there I want to go on to two ideas:

 First of all- Then what is important? What should we dedicate our thoughts, dreams and hopes to? Some people would say that the most important thing is our friends and family, all those people who make us feel good and we get along well with. But that is not reality because even though having a good relationship with these people and having someone to talk to and fall back on is amazing, they also can fail us. Friends, familly, everything exterior and oh-so-human can(and probably will) fail us to some degree and some point of time. Having said this I don´t want anyone to miss understand me and think that I´m trying to say you shouldn´t enjoy others company to the fullest but it´s important that our priorities and thoughts are established in a way that things that other people due to us don´t affect us enough as to bring us down or change the essential parts of our being.

 So, as human beings what should our center be? I think that the most important part of life is God. I think that he is whom we should dedicate every breath of our life and whom we should have present always. But I also think that looking for personal growth and general wellbeing is extremly important too. You need to look after yourself. I don´t mean be ego centric but just genuinly be looking for tranquility, well being, happiness and what gives you all that. You don´t find what makes you happy on the street, it´s not what tv comercials or society tells you it is and it´s so far away from other people, desires and attractions.

When you finally find the key, the path you were looking for don´t let it go. Stick to it, be wise and follow your heart at the same time. It´s not always easy but for sure will be worth while. I know that I´m young and unexperienced in so many ways but I do invite everyone to analize there life, there thoughts, there priorities. I invite everyone to LIVE and LIVE a lot.
