In 1970, Richard Bach published one of the best novels in history, which made several generations think: “Fernao Capelo Gaivota?
It’s an epic story of a seagull in her life and learning to fly; a story about how to defeat a seagull who not only stayed in the air in search of food, but wanted more.
- “We are free to go where we want and be who we are;” The only real law is the one that leads to freedom.
- Is there no other law? “Said Fernando Capelo Gaivota.
Capelo Gaivota was different from other seagulls; He had a dream, a simple dream, but for seagulls, his dream wasn’t a normal dream, he wanted to fly, but not like a normal seagull, he wanted to fly in a special way, with stunts and more stunts, great, at night, doing pirouettes?
Then he had to break the limits set by his group, because Fernio only wanted to fly, he liked to fly and fly without adjusting to what others were doing, he wanted to achieve perfection.
Dreams are part of human nature, because through them we can improve, push our limits and get rid of the spirit of slavery imposed on us by a “normal” life. Through dreams, we are free, we can reach heaven, touch beauty and undress the soul.
Not everyone is the same; there are dreams that are almost unattainable, and others touch us simply to open our eyes to a new life, all are equally valid, although some may be harder to achieve than others, it is normal and humane to talk about it with others, want to know opinions and discuss views.
However, there are times when other people’s advice, opinions and speeches become a prison from which it is very difficult to escape When councils almost become orders?
Since ancient times, there has been an endless debate between those who claim that everything is pre-set, even before birth, and those who claim that we write our future and mark our lives step by step. It’s an endless debate, and it will be impossible to know, at least in this world, how it actually works.
While this debate is not resolved, it is possible to control what is in our hands, direct our steps and put our lives towards the destination we so much want.
Dreaming costs nothing, and if we turn these dreams into goals, without imposing restrictions that limit our development as people, they can help us achieve what we call “happiness. “
Have fun admiring the landscape to your final destination; Watch as a seed becomes a beautiful fruit, enjoy the taste of a good meal and also every step you’ve taken to achieve your goal.
Enjoying every moment, every step is essential. Because if you don’t learn to appreciate the little things, to observe them in their beauty and in their time, what sense will it make to enjoy a distant ending?
Taking advantage of these moments will help avoid the frustration of not achieving almost impossible goals, as we can say “I fought. “Someone has dreamed of reaching the moon and almost everyone has said that it is impossible, that it will never happen, that this person must devote himself to “normal” things, put his feet on the ground and stop dreaming.
Many have had this dream. These dreamers always had volunteers to cut off their wings. Don’t you think about it, orient your life towards something real, are you already an adult, aren’t you?Work and not dream, leave your fairytale world, and other things, does it sound familiar?
Through perseverance, the dream became real until the day when, in 1969, Neil Armstrong, directly from the moon, said, “Is this a small step for a man, but a great leap for humanity?”
Life gives us values, goals. We’ll keep each other not. Get inspired, fill in the gaps of your dreams, which makes you think, meditate, but don’t let the dreams or reality of others obstruct, limit, erase, and cancel your own.
And Capelo Gaivota taught us that the only limit we can have is not trying to realize our dreams. And watch out for your fears, because they like to steal dreams.
The seagull flies, flies, flies to your dreams.
