Although people count with full hands, in the world, the calamities, the pains and difficulties, in every corner there is someone who sow love, peace and solidarity.

Although people talk about catastrophes, heinous crimes and atrocities, there never was, like today, so much solidarity, selflessness and love of neighbor.

So, it will always be what each one of us choose to value that will give the inks of what our society comes through.

The world has always been made of contrasts.

In the crowd, who are all of us, the reincarnated spirits on Earth, we are each in our range of evolution and maturation, fruit of our own individual achievement.

So, nothing is more natural than some people who are delighted with the war, while others sow peace.

It does not sound so inconsistent that some collect empty and nonsensical fortunes, while others work in the fraternal solidarity.

Some more mature, others not so much.

It is worth remembering that, in this broth that is our humanity, each one of us responds only for what it does.

Thus, the evil of others is always of the other, while we do not shelter it in our intimacy.

The violence of others will be spotting only the hands of others, while we do not appropriate it as a form of personal behavior.

Inevitably, these behaviors, often colorful and unbalanced, shock us, provoke revulsion, generating comments of indignation.

However, we can only ask: what do we do in the face of such impudence?

If so many enrich themselves in the theft and corruption, are we educating our children in the virtues of honesty and of righteousness?

If many are using violence to get featured, hoard followers, or as a behavior of life, are we promoting peace with our attitudes and comments?

If we get tired of the venal way as men and women are selling their bodies, how they are cheapening sex, reducing it to frivolous instrument of pleasure, are we having a posture of common sense and respect with our own body?

Society is the mirror of its citizens, with their mature and their values.

If we wish it to modify, we shall start with us.

Our values and attitudes will contribute for a better world, or will add to the existing imbalance.

Everything is a matter of choice.

That way, every time you wish to change the world, that we yearn for high values, this is the time to start changing ourselves.

The restructuring of the world passes inevitably through the restructuring of  each one of us.

The day will come that, tired and exhausted of the empty and unhappy values with which it has elected to walk along, our society will look for other parameters.

Meanwhile, we can initiate this more balanced and noble society with which we all dream of.

Before waiting for more intense and meaningful changes, we shall seek to implement in our intimate world all we wish will be one day the highlight of our world.

Let us think about it. Let us do it.
