When I was in search of the most suitable title for this book, I was thinking of something that would cause an impact, a feeling of unease, discomfort; I desired it to be very provocative of reactions in its presentation, and, above all, to attract people's attention having in mind the intention of generating some sort of transformation. In fact, it was some sort of intuition, and my heart felt guidance that brought it before me since I myself did not know where to start.
I confess that those words were very marked in my mind. I did not hear them just once or twice, but thousands of times, which caused me not to know exactly what I wanted from life due to such unsureness. External judgments that penetrate our inner being can dramatically change the course of our story, especially when they come from the closest ones who play a part in our lives; those who are around us.
I am sure that many of you, just like me, have already felt or have been feeling lost with the sensation that one has simply been thrown into this world due to the fact that nobody has given the handbook on how to be an adult. I am not able to think that it is only me, in this whole world, who has this feeling, the certainty of having a different DNA, that I have not merely gone through so many challenges and overcome so many obstacles, and still stay hidden, once having so many stories, and being selfish enough for not sharing my valuable experiences and life lessons, ones that I had gone and have been going through.
There is an interesting point, and it is that intention precedes change. When someone intends to shift within themselves, it means that they have already taken the first step towards transformation. It seems to me that, by choosing this book, you are either walking the paths of inner search, and one for something new, for urgent changes, even if it is for the reason that may seem ordinary, but it bothers your inner being, or you may choose this book because you simply know me and are curious to know why I have spent so many years studying to write it.
We have been looking for answers to help us understand the unknown and go through the world's changes and our internal revolution, which can be the great "catch" and evolution of our life. Changes are necessary if you plan to move your boat forward, and that may be due to the non-conformity with something or even due to a feeling of "I'm sick of it all, and now I'm ready for something else" (Done & Ready). It is from the "I'm done with the past and ready for the future" that my resumption of life arose. It is also essential to know that there is a cause and a consequence, a specific gain in everything we do, be it positive or negative.
From this non-conformity and unrested mind, this book and this unceasing curiosity and quest for self-knowledge arose, causing me to literally relearn how to walk with both feet on the ground.
You must think about how crazy it is to be a writer because all of this started from an outburst. I am not sure what kind of writing style I have; I don't know if I am good at making rhymes, I wonder if I'm as consistent as I should be. I can be a little redundant; I can be tripping, meaning I may daydream way too much, and, for my luck, fortunately, there are people in this world with all tastes and all flavors. Thank goodness, don't you think?
Now, what is so important that causes me an urge to share this with people? The idea is to spread the story to those who have been going through the same thing and help them, without judgment or worrying about being judged; after all, what may be a small, insignificant little thing for one, might be a big deal for another. For this reason, we shouldn't point the finger at anyone's nose, nor judge anyone's life story since nobody knows the struggles they have been going through. Often, those who have been responsible for our education have somehow also lacked guidance on how to educate others, based on what is right or wrong, positive or negative.
However, the fact is that there is always someone waiting for some inspiration, encouragement, and words of comfort or hope. Everyone has their emotional needs to give and be given. I sincerely hope I can help you see some aspects of life with more clearness with all that has been said.
After all, what is the right thing? Amidst all these crazy ideas, how many people will really connect with my story? Simply having the opportunity to inspire someone's life gives me a deep sense of achievement. For making this difference, even when you do not have the slightest idea of how far this crazy thing will go, it pays off all the efforts and time invested in this project. So, if you feel abandoned in your crazy little world inside your mind if you desire to know who you really are, what your place in the world is, and how to get out of the emotional pitfalls, this is a good start for you. I sincerely hope that you will be able to follow my line of thought and these crazy daydreams, getting muddled-up, getting my wires crossed, going off-topic adventures.
If there is one thing, I am sure of, it is that in my perfect imperfection, I have done my part.
Caution,
this book might cause
a Revolution in the way of seeing life!
