John Lennon had magic in everything he did, Salvador Dalí didn’t even need a trick to paint what he liked, and Charles Chaplin didn’t even need to talk to conquer half the world.
I don’t mean that we’re all like those talents that history has given us, but I mean the fact that the best way to really make ourselves known to others is to know who we are and show us like this: no filters, no masks, no superficiality, because those who have magic don’t need things.
- The other day.
- I was reading an article on Michelle Jenner’s social media about the supposed perfection that is demanded of us and that we often unconsciously demand: we shave.
- We take hours to get dressed.
- We do our makeup and we look at each other.
- Ourselves a hundred times in the mirror: in search of what we are not.
“Honesty and integrity are absolutely essential to success. The good news is that anyone can develop both sincerity and integrity.
-Zig Ziglar-
Then we go out on the street and think that what others see in us is the important thing, that’s why we strive to ‘live up to it’, but we are neither imperfect nor perfect: our essence is what unies us to others, the cause of complicity and differences between them.
Therefore, naturalness and honesty are the behaviors that will allow us to enjoy what we are living and that will help us to have more lasting and profound relationships: after all, defects are exposed immediately, that is why it is better to love. them immediately . . .
You probably heard that phrase and what you didn’t know is who he said was another genius, Bukowski. There’s no lie in your fire, he added. What I wanted to convey is what we just explained: people who give themselves to others without thinking about how they do it are true and we like them.
The madman? Bukowski is the one who surrenders faithfully and without distortions of any kind, it is the one who understands that the most real results of your life will arise in the simplicity of those who know how you feel and what you want to feel.
In this sense, why do we love the spontaneity of children so much, because they are able to put the heart and soul into everything they do, usually build friendships without prejudice, are innocent and are much more surprised than adults. they are not afraid of ridicule and, above all, they are sincere.
“We are all travelers in the desert of this world, and the best we can find on our travels is a sincere friend.
-Robert Louis Stevenson-
When Vanessa Martin mentioned this in a show of hers, I remembered those friends who give everything so that we can grow up as people and never be paralyzed, at that time, all those situations in which others saved us without realizing the importance of what they. do for us came to mind.
The simplicity and magic of those who give what they have without looking for anything in return is what is really worth having by their side, without the false apparitions that are synonymous with failure: we have all discovered something important someone who surprised us terribly.
For all these reasons, it is gratifying to surround yourself with those who know that they can be magical and that they are, of those who do not need tricks to properly show the face to others, so not for nothing they say that the best relationship is not knowing who is lucky enough to know who, and this can only happen if there is sincerity.
? I saw you

What to do you
so that the world
going back to your senses
I did not know
Who
Thank you. ?
