Without gradually releasing negative feelings, 

one day they will ‘overflow’ 

in the form of a disease, depression, 

a huge outburst, a devastating crisis. 

Release.... before the cup overflows! 

Whenever someone else's advantage, 

implying material gain or control, 

is present in what you are being offered, 

be careful! You may be manipulated!

You often spend precious moments 

that will never come back 

just thinking of stuff that 

has already happened. 

Assess the impact of past experiences

 

on your present attitude. 

If you understood their meaning, 

you learned your lesson.

It's night. You see many lit-up windows: 

many people, many stories. 

You know nothing about them, 

they are strangers to you. 

Yet, one of their stories could be your own.

It seems that some people

 

need to always be against something. 

Why not try to be for something instead?

Any path can lead you to your destination. 

While proceeding, though, 

pay attention to the inspiring ‘signposts’

scattered along the way: 

fairness, compassion, patience, 

acceptance, joy, love.

You are here for a reason, 

although you don't know for how long. 

Try to understand what is the contribution 

you can give to the world. 

It will make you feel 

that your existence really counts.

Sometimes it’s easy to decide: 

you can either ignore the problem, 

or just focus on something else. 

But if you realize that a firm course 

of action can be useful to solve it, 

how can you proceed?
