The Chinese legends are very interesting and always full of teaching.

One of them says that the Sun king had a very beloved daughter, so beautiful that even the Yellow Emperor was full of admiration for her.

When the Sun king went out to steer the course of the aurora, each morning, his daughter wished to go with him.

But he was very busy and could not take her with him. One day, she secretly rowedafter him, in a boat.

Unfortunately, a storm aroused and she was swallowed up by the sea, leaving her father taken of sadness.

However, she was reborn as a bird of stripped head, red claws and white nozzle.

Because of its mournful song it is called Jingwei.

So Jingwei promised to take revenge of the sea, saying that he would transform it into dry land.

For this reason, he began to catchsmall stones, with the nozzle, flying from his home to the East Sea and letting them fall on the irregular waves.

The sea said: Little bird, give up! Even if you work for a million years, you will never be able to transform me into a desert plain.

The grudgingresponse of Jigwei was: Even if it takes me ten million years or a hundred million years, until the end of the world, I will make of you a dry land.

The female descendants of Jingweicontinue in the unending task to seek gravel and sticks to ground the sea.

The Chinese greatly respect this bird for its strong determination and strength of will.

Monuments were raised in its honor and can still be seen in several places, merging the East coast of China.

Sung in various verses, the legend has become synonymous of invincible idealism and hard commitment.

We allowed ourselves to focus on another facet of this bird: the hatred that it boils. Hate that it consumes his days in useless revenge.

Knowing, though, that one will never achieve the objective, saysthat will die trying.

Sometimes, isn’t it like that the way we behave? Achieved in our pride or in what we call to be our honor, we focus our energies on fool revenge.

Even if everything that we do does not reach the target, which we consider to be our enemy, we do not abandon it.

Even when our body, registering our negative vibrations, giving us alarming signs of illness, we continue with intuit.

We suffer, we cry but we ratify: I may die but I do not entrust myself! I am going up to the end.

Is it worth it? Wouldn’t that be more productive to stick to forgiveness taught by Jesus?

Profound expert of the human psyche, exemplar therapist, He urged us to the reconciliation with the opponent.

He knew that nothing positive comes from the vengeance,impairing, first of all and above all, to hissponsor.

Let us bear this in mind and let go in peace the ones whoharm us or poison the days.

For our part, let us vibrate in good, for the good and let us enjoy health and happiness.
