I do not know if you ever heard the expression “ life is nothing but a journey”…

For the last few weeks I have been writing about Neurodiversity today I will do my best to share some ideas, thoughts and I hope some wisdom (if I have any… 🤷🏼‍♀️). I hope this will add not just to the neurodivergent and to there parents but to everyone that feels that life is hard or who knows what.
I honestly hope this written will add value to your life, regardless of where you are or where you are planning to go.

The other day I was speaking with a “Capellán”! I hardly know this Chaplain but he is going through a hard time in his life of 25+ years of Marriage; looking for a new apartment and who knows what else. In the conversation the story of Dorothy and Marlin from the movie Finding Nemo came to my mind.
I do not know if you saw the movie ‘Finding New’ 🎥 but there is this remarkable scene where Marlin the controlling and over protective father of Nemo, who’s afraid of letting go have no option but to surrender to the unknown. In the seen they are inside a whale, there is a great commotion, he is afraid 😧 of what could happen if he lets go but Dorothy our ADHD hero leads the way to the darkness of the abyss and they are finally safe.

Sometimes life is unpredictable! Regardless of how much we try to be safe, to protect or to be protected, they are way too many variables. There is so much we do not know, nor we can not control.

Sometimes life is like the weather forecast. Yes, of course we can have expectations but at the end there is no guarantee that tomorrow is going to be bright, nor is going to be rainy for the harvest. If you want to enjoy the journey of life. You need to realize that life have cycles sometimes they will go up sometimes they will go down.

Sometimes when I go through a hard moment, I remind myself that life is no picnic.
From this point, I ask myself, did we exist before? Before this body? Before this time? Will I ever exist after this body stops working? Is it life after life? Or just conscious after this life?

I don’t claim to know the answers. I do not claim that I know, nor I have the truth.
Nevertheless, I do believe. I do believe that we were here before, and we will come back here later. Obviously and clearly, this idea is not meant to be proven. We cannot prove that we existed before, nor we will exist afther, or something related to us will exist after this body’s are gone. Obviously and clearly, many claims to know the answer. But I do my best to be humble, and to not necessarily believe everything I believe. But if life is not a picnic, what is it?

Well, I am not sure. But the way I see it, this is like a classroom, a place where we come and we experience love, fear, success, failure, pleasure, pain, and all the other emotions that makes us human. Let’s imagine for a moment that you are a spirit without a body; how could you experience life without senses. Well, there is so much that a spirit can do, like a senseless thought. How much can a thought influence without a body?

Well, if we are here, and we are, and there is no picnic, we could realize a few things.

First, life is the way it is.
Second, life has a purpose, and I believe the purpose of life is to live, to live it.
To live life to the fullest.
