We often see through dirty lens. Someone bought for us this bad and ugly pair of glasses and we can't remove it. We force ourselves, our eyesight to fit in and try our best to see. We get this dirty view and we act by consequence. We don't see the richness around us, all we see it's just a black spot. We often ask to people, those people who have better lens, and we follow them blindly. We trust them , we think they're right, we think they're enlightening us but the truth is, we're just getting blinder. Our dark spot is so big that we just don't see anything else. Before, the spot was smaller and we saw blurred shapes and we sacrificed that blurriness for something bigger- and we paid the consequences. Our blindness is making us believe we can't do anything to remove it but we know, deep down, that we can. We don't need complicated ways, we don't need fortune sellers, we don't need money, we just need our will, a rag and some water. It couldn't be more simple. But if we know this, why do we go looking for gold when we have water? Why do we listen to empty words in order to reach out a fake heaven? Can't we accept what we have in the present moment?
