my mistakes
I would have loved to have been wrong a little more in the past. Having made more mistakes Have been braver on many occasions and face bigger risks. Leaving aside with much more strength the search for perfection. I would have preferred to be more clumsy and careless. In many cases, I must have had a more sense of humor and mock more of my defeats. I have had to be less sensible, less prudent, and enjoy much more. Close my umbrellas in the rain to give me more life.
I have had to ignore the advice of my family more. I should have listened to my teachers less. Disobey a little more. Be more irreverent before authority. Be less patient with the ungrateful friend. Be less kind to the fool. Be less practical See less television and not pay attention to the news. Never sacrifice my peace of mind for the money. Never miss the lost object. Walk through life without so many calculations. Laugh more Work less and travel more. Admire the landscape more. Contemplate more sunsets. Bounce more the composure and lose more the seriousness. Lie down later at night and sleep for longer in the mornings. Eat more dessert. Sing, dance, fly and dream much more. Allow the wind to ruffle me and trust more in chance. Fear less and love more.
I have always been able to acquire a couple of more vices. Put more whiskey in coffee to say it in some way. Fall more into temptations. Have more affections. Challenge more to the forbidden. Deliver me, give me, fall in love and relax more. I have always been able to have more inappropriate love affairs. Have sex in more daring ways and in more unexpected places. I have been able to lose my head for the wrong woman more times. I must have given that kiss I never gave. I have to say that I love you.
Over time, one learns something. And I have discovered over the years that I do not want a perfect world and that having everything is never enough. One learns with the days that everything changes, and that almost nothing is forever. Luck arrives, and then it goes. As the calendar progresses, there are things that are no longer important, and others that are gaining more value. One values more the flashes of beauty, the sweet moments, the small details, the power of forgiveness, and the ability to thank. One values the generous, the kind and the sincere more. One understands that in life many times the healthiest thing is to forget and that the real nobility is in giving gifts to others without many conditions. Feeling more important than success.
Anyone can become successful in this plastic society, but not everyone knows how to fail with style. It takes a certain talent to fail in a big way. We must accept falls, without regrets and with pride. That eternal competition that exists today is absurd. Life is about the sublime of the moment. We should not turn it into a race for gold. That is absolute nonsense. This success is something for the ego and I feel that what is really valuable is in soul. I do not really want to succeed. I just want to be happy.
