These are the moments that leave you cold. Where you must contain your words, you are surprised. Live intensely. It’ll take your breath away.
They are moments in which life takes a new turn, when you close your eyes and feel that you have something to live for, this has happened to you and you need to be pinched, because it cannot be real.
- That it is not a dream.
- That you realized.
- That it was worth it.
- No matter if some call it luck.
- Others call it perseverance.
- But you will always remember the moment that left you speechless.
- Because the train of your life changed direction immediately.
It is at this time when you wonder whether or not it is worth living your life reasonably, or if, on the contrary, you are containing yourself. The platform of the station has nothing to offer you; Don’t let yourself die and get on the train.
Relax and make mistakes; Don’t try to be perfect, take things less seriously. Take more risks, travel more, climb the mountains, swim in the rivers. Go to places you’ve never been before, live longer, worry less.
Don’t use your life with a survival kit and enjoy painting every day of your life with the most intense colors.
Immerse yourself, live intensely and enjoy your lack of air
“Do we live in such a way that when it comes time to disembark, our empty seat will leave beautiful memories for those who will continue to travel on the Train of Life?
Life is like a train ride, with its stations and route changes, some accidents, pleasant surprises in some cases and a deep sadness in others?
When we were born, did we get on the train and meet our parents, thinking they would always travel with us, but at a train station they will come down, letting us travel, and we will be without your company and your irreplaceable love. ?
But will many other people who will be very special and important take the train of our lives, our brothers, friends and, at some point, the love of our lives?
Some will take the train for a simple ride. Others, during their journey, will live moments of darkness and sadness, and will we always find those who are willing to help those who need it most?
Do many, as they come down, leave a permanent void?
“Life is a play that does not allow rehearsals. So sing, laugh, dance, cry and live every moment of your life intensely before the curtain falls and the play ends without applause.
? Charlie Chaplin?
It is curious to see how some passengers, even family members, are housed in cars different from our own, which along the way are separated, without any communication.
But nothing really prevents us from approaching them if there is goodwill on our part, otherwise it may be too late and we will find someone else for you.
Try to have a good relationship with all the passengers, looking for each one what they have to offer, at some point they can weaken and you will probably need to understand them, but it is worth remembering that too often you have doubted and needed someone who understands you.
The great mystery for all is that we will never know where we are going and also where our fellow travelers will descend, not even the one sitting next to us.
Sometimes I think about when I have to get off the train, will I feel nostalgia, fear, joy, anguish? Separating myself from the friends I made during the trip will be painful and letting my children go alone will be very sad. I cling to the hope that at some point I will have the great thrill of seeing them arrive at the main station with the luggage they did not have when they began their journey.
What will make me happy is to think that I have collaborated to grow and stay on this train until the final station.
Friends, let’s make our journey on this train meaningful, worth it
Good trip!!!!
