After so many years of hard work
I finally managed to move to the home
I always dreamt for.
This magic place is blessed every morning
by a stunning sun rise over Rio de la Plata,
while in the afternoon the blessing comes
from another awesome sunset over the city.
My magic kingdom is almost at the top of a building,
so the views always take my breath away
while filling my heart with warm gratitude
and the sense of oneness.
Here I feel at peace with myself,
I reconnect with my essence, feeling alive…
part and parcel of the entire Universe.
Past and future stop existing, the mind clears up;
emotions rise and then settle down
(just like the sun and the moon),
and the only thing that matters is the magic jiffy
where I’m still breathing and fully conscious.
To me happiness is that magical tick where I just am…
Looking at the sun and the moon,
observing the sky and the river
teaches me a lot about letting things be
and go with the flow…
that resisting to what it is
takes me nowhere…
because life is about change,
transformation and awareness.
I’m thankful, and attempting to live in gratitude,
free of expectations, open to receive and give.
