EXISTENTIAL DECALOGUE to manage me through life

1 – I don’t know who I am, nor am I interested. I don’t see anyone inside me.
2 – I do not follow any tradition or teacher. I don’t lean on the past.
3 – I don’t feel guilty about anything. I would not remove or change anything that happened.
4 – I am not afraid to die. It is not necessary to extend life if it has been lived.
5 – I don’t need to attack anyone. It does not make me evolve if I destroy others.
6 – I’m not doing anything. There is no someone in me who does something, there are actions.
7 – I do not believe in anything that I believe nor do I believe in anything that others believe. I don’t believe.
8 – I am not in a body or on a planet. I am not passing through life. I don’t exist.
9 – There is no possibility that you know me. I have no idea what I am like.
10 – I do not agree or disagree with anyone. No need to argue.

Many will think that I am not religious, that I am atheist or agnostic, that I do not believe in God or in other lives …

If that is what you think of me, you are as wrong as you are right. It’s just one side of the coin. You have not yet discovered what I am and what I feel. Those who succeed will simply feel in their hearts that a tiny part of the SUPREME TRUTH has caressed their soul.

I WILL CONTINUE GIVING CLUES OF WHAT I AM NOT, SO YOU CAN SEE WHAT IS IN YOURSELF.

FAMILY DECALOGUE for my children

Text extracted from the book “From the Prison, from my Freedom” by Alberto José Varela:

On Monday, August 10, I celebrated my birthday in prison. I had ninety minutes from vis to vis in a little room where there is only a table and a few chairs.

Paula, my partner, came with our 1-year-old daughter Amelys, Elián and Aneley, 19, two of the three children I had with Marisa. There was also Anahí, 6 years old, whom I had with Conchi.

There were no cake or candles, just looks, words, and laughter.

That day I wanted to give them a gift; I gave them a code of suggestions for family coexistence that I wrote for them and that said:

  1- When the minors speak, the elders are silent.
2- We dialogue to get to know each other, not to be right.
3- There are no laws or norms, love guides us.
4- There is nothing to hide, but we all have the right to lie.
5- Nothing is judged or criticized, everything is accepted.
6- No one commands anyone, each one obeys his heart.
7- We only believe that there is nothing to believe in.
8- There is no possibility of anyone making a mistake.
9- If someone does not ask, no answer will be given.
10- Let’s flow; spontaneity is above plans.
11- Do not try to be someone other than the one you are; so you are perfect.
12- Here there is no role model or ideal to reach.
13- Each one who chooses the religion that he wants or none.
14- There is no fixed way of doing things, figure it out.
15- If we are in a situation with no way out, let’s laugh.
16- Let each one realize for himself how things are.
17- Let’s not stop looking at each other from the heart until we understand each other.
18- If something is discussed, the minors have priority.
19- Instead of controlling and investigating, it is preferable to trust.
20- Every day everything starts from scratch, the past died.
