Title: A beautiful


1
  • A beautiful
  • reflection
  • by
  • Facundo Cabral

2
You are not depressed, you are distracted
Distracted by the life that controls you, ...
Distracted by the life around you, Dolfins,
forests, seas, mountains, rívers.
3
  • Do not fall into my brothers trap he is
    agonizing for one person... when in the world
    there are five thousand six hundred million. For
    the rest, it is not so bad to live alone.
  • I am enjoying myself, deciding at every moment
    what I want to do, and, thanks to this solitude,
    I know myself...
  • Something truly fundamental for life

4
  • Dont fall into the trap of your father, who
    thinks he is old because he has seventy years of
    age, forgetting that Moses directed the Exodus at
    eighty and Rubinstein used to interpret Chopin
    like no one else when he was ninety, to quote
    just two well-known cases.

5
  • You are not depressed, you are distracted. That
    is why you think you lost something, but that is
    impossible, because all you have was given to
    you. You did not make a single hair of your head,
    therefore you own nothing. Besides, life does
    not take anything from you it frees you from
    things... It makes you lighter so you can fly
    higher, and reach your fullness. From the cradle
    to the tomb it is all a school that is why, what
    you call problems, are only lessons. You did not
    lose anyone The one who died, simply went ahead
    of us, because there is where we all go. And, the
    best of that person, love, continues alive in
    your heart.

6
  • There is no death... only change. And at the
    other side you have wonderful people waiting for
    you Gandhi, Michel Angelo, Whitman, Saint
    Augustin, Mother Teresa, your granfather and my
    mother, who believed that poverty was closer to
    love, because money distracts us with too many
    things and it makes us distant, by taking away
    our trust.

7
  • Do only what you love and you will be happy.
    Whoever does what he loves is happily condemned
    to success, which will arrive in its good time
    because what must be will be, and will arrive
    naturally. Do nothing out of obligation or
    compromise, only out of love. Then you will have
    fullness, and in this fullness all is possible
    and without effort, because it is the natural
    force of life that moves you the force that
    raised me when the plane fell with my wife and
    daughter in it that kept me alive when the
    doctors diagnosed for me three or four months of
    life, at most.

8
  • God put you in charge of a human being, and that
    is yourself. You have to make yourself free and
    happy. Then you will be able to share a better
    life with others. Remember Love your
    neighbor like yourself". Find reconciliation with
    yourself, look at the mirror and think that this
    creature you are seeing is Gods work and
    decide, right now, to be happy, because happiness
    is an acquisition.

9
Moreover, happiness is not a right, but a duty
because if you are not happy, you are making the
whole neighborhood unhappy. One man alone who
did not have talent nor courage to live, ordered
the death of millions of jewish brothers.
10
  • There are so many things to enjoy and our
    sojourn on earth is so short, that suffering is a
    waste of time. To enjoy ourselves we have the
    snow of Winter and the flowers of Spring, Belgian
    chocolate, French baguetes, Mexican tacos,
    Chilean wine, the seas and the rivers, Brazilian
    soccer, The Thousand and one Nights, the Divine
    Comedy, the Quijote, Pedro Páramo, the boleros of
    Manzanero and the poetry of Whitman the music of
    Mahler, Mozart, Chopin, Beethoven the paintings
    of Caravaggio, Rembrandt, Velázquez, Picasso and
    Tamayo, among so many other marvels.

11
  • And if you have cancer or AIDS, two things can
    happen and both are good if it wins, it will
    free you from this body that can be so
    uncomfortable (I am hungry, cold, sleepy, I have
    desires, I am right, I doubt)... And if you win,
    you will be more humble, more grateful for it,
    easier to make happy, free from the awful weight
    of guilt, responsability and pride, ready to
    live each and every instant in all its depth, as
    it should be.

12
  • You are not depressed you are unoccupied
  • Help the child that needs you, that child that
    will be your sons associate. Help the old and
    the young will help you when you will be one.
  • Besides, service is sure happiness, like
    enjoying nature and taking care of it for those
    who will come after. Give without measure and
    you will be given without measure as well. Love
    until you become like what you love more still,
    until you are transformed into love itself.
  • And do not let yourself be brought to
    confusion by a few homicides or suicides..

13
  • Goodness is the greater part, but it is not
    appreciated because it is silent. A bomb makes
    more noise than a caress, but for every bomb that
    destroys, there are millions of caresses that
    feed life. Its worth, isnt it?. If God had a
    refrigerator, your picture would be in it. If God
    had a wallet, your picture would be in it too.
    God sends you flowers every Spring. God gives you
    a dawn every morning. Every time you want to
    talk, God listens God can live in any part of
    the Universe, but chose your heart. Welcome the
    presence, my friend, God is crazy for you!

14
  • Send this to every beautiful person you want
    blessed. God did not promise days without pain,
    laughter without sadness, sun without rain God
    simply promised strength for each day,
    consolation for the tears, and light for the
    journey.

When life will give you a thousand reasons to
cry, show it that you have one thousand and one
reasons to smile
