- 0:00To family. Life is beautiful, life is beautiful, even in the midst
- 0:14of the complications and hard situations that happen to us, but you have to
- 0:18add flavor to life and God is the main sasonator, as I shared in
- 0:23the previous episode, And well, here is the mural of the soul to
- 0:27accompany you and reflect in an unconventional way. My name David Fernando and I
- 0:31want to accompany you in this episode today we are on all podcast platforms.
- 0:36It locates a green board of all life with the wall phrase of the soul.
- 0:40It is on our podcast, on Facebook and on YouTube that we are
- 0:43placed as the mural of the soul very easily and you can share that with
- 0:48whoever wants the first Thursdays of each month video podcast where you are going to
- 0:53see me and if not, well, you have the audio formats available.
- 0:56Welcome or I want to share a text written by Indian poet and writer Rabindranat
- 1:15Tagore. This is powerful. Uh, it' s called the only jewel.
- 1:21It says so across the desert, a traveler saw an Arab sitting at
- 1:27the foot of a palm tree within walking distance. They rested their horses heavily
- 1:34loaded with valuables. Be next, very worried. I can help you on
- 1:44a day. The Arab responded with sadness. I' m very distressed because
- 1:51I just lost the most precious jewels.“ What a jewel that was,
- 2:00” the traveler asked. It was a jewel. His interlocutor replied that it
- 2:07would not be done again. Another was carved into a piece of life stone
- 2:13and had been made in the workshop of time. Twenty- four bright ones
- 2:22donated it, about which sixty smaller ones were grouped together. You see how
- 2:29right I am to say which jewel like this can never be produced. Ah
- 2:38my faith said the traveler your jewel should be beautiful, but they do not
- 2:46believe that with much money can be made. Another answered the Arab, the
- 2:53lost jewel. Being thoughtful again, it was a day and a day that
- 3:05is lost never again. There is, friends, another reflection of the mural
- 3:15of the soul, which has to do with the importance of taking advantage of
- 3:22the time, of taking advantage of the moment, the day to day,
- 3:28of enjoying those simple things that life has. There is a very famous song
- 3:34in tropical rhythm, whose lyrics have a rather, quite particular significance when he
- 3:46talks about it doesn' t hear open your eyes, look up, enjoy
- 3:54the good things that life has. Impressive awesome wow. That, uh,
- 4:04is a tremendous thing that makes us understand something very particular and it' s
- 4:13enjoying life at every moment, at every moment. Chayan el Boricua made his
- 4:24version of this song under the title Mother Earth, but nothing always and simply
- 4:34there are many songs that speak of that topic. That' s not a
- 4:44tremendous thing. I think there are many versions of Juli Mateo, there'
- 4:54s one by Wilfrío Vargas from Rasputin. Well, there' s a lot
- 5:00of songs about that. And that song has something very key and look what
- 5:08the solo orchestra is. It also has its version of this song. I
- 5:15can' t reproduce it. You already know why, by copyright, but
- 5:17I' m going to tell you and the verses are very important. A
- 5:26rest on the road, a bottle of wine, a sigh, a look,
- 5:30a joyful laugh, a face in the mirror, a friend, good
- 5:33advice, a boat trip, even if you don' t get there first,
- 5:39a little black horse that doesn' t run for money, a palm
- 5:43tree, a stream, a little sky, look around and you will see
- 5:46the good things, that life is a love forget your sorrows. And there
- 5:49are other impressive questions of the second verse of this song. A beach,
- 5:55a birthday, a good memory of old times, a smell of good grass,
- 5:59a pleasant conversation, an romance that has been born that steals your senses,
- 6:03a park full of children, a beautiful affection, a tear, a
- 6:09moment, despite all feeling, a very beautiful music, a perfume, a
- 6:14star. Friends, life is a ratic and life is about very nice things.
- 6:20No matter how many more situations happen to us. I want to tell
- 6:26you something. Life is beautiful, life is precious, but you have to
- 6:30know how to live it, to live it in God' s way.
- 6:32Friends, as I explained to you in a previous episode, is not the
- 6:39question of a life of vain pleasures, with alcohol, sex drugs. Then
- 6:46you have to live life and live it in God' s way. Look
- 6:54what the Apostle James, in chapter four verse fourteen, said to his disciples,
- 7:00to his entourage, to his followers, and they don' t even
- 7:04know what tomorrow will be, because what his life is. It is certainly
- 7:11a vapor that appears for a moment of time or for a little time and
- 7:15then fades away. I repeat, and they don' t even know what
- 7:19tomorrow will be, because what their life is, It is certainly like haze,
- 7:28says another version of writing, which appears for a little while and then
- 7:33fades away. Impressive. That, uh, life is passing. That'
- 7:41s the thing here, listen, but since verse thirteen there are some very
- 7:47interesting things. It says thirteen. Come now those who say today and tomorrow
- 7:53we will go to such a city and we will be there for a year,
- 7:58we will traffic and win when they do not know what tomorrow will be,
- 8:01because what is their life is certainly haze, which appears for a little
- 8:05time and then fades away. Instead they should say if the Lord wants to
- 8:07live and we will do this or that life. You have to enjoy the
- 8:15family, but you have to enjoy it well, live it well in God
- 8:18' s way, not in the crazy way that this life brings us,
- 8:28not and take advantage of that quality of life time to share it with our
- 8:31human beings, as I shared it in another episode and I want to highlight
- 8:37it in this enjoyment If you are engaged, engaged or married, enjoy that
- 8:41person you are with. If you have your parents alive, enjoy them,
- 8:46if you have your brothers alive, enjoy them, share quality time with them,
- 8:52friends, cousins, uncles, family everyone, enjoy it, enjoy it
- 8:56every day because you will never ever come back a day like the one that
- 9:00is never happening today. The only thing similar is that, for example,
- 9:05if it is Monday, another day called Monday Pere will appear is Monday compared
- 9:09to last Monday, it will be different. Now I want to, I
- 9:16don' t want to sound cruel, but we don' t have a
- 9:20life bought. We know when we were born, but we don' t
- 9:24know when we' re going to die. It' s not fatalism that
- 9:26I' m telling you. I simply invite you to enjoy the day-
- 9:28to- day, the moment- to- moment, the instant- to
- 9:31- moment. Share it. Let' s stop focusing on so much time
- 9:37at work. We must be hardworking, we must be so scholarly that it
- 9:45is good to study, it is good to work. Don' t get
- 9:48me wrong, but there' s a time for everything. Is there a
- 9:50time for everything? Is there time to work? There is time to study,
- 9:54but there are times where one must share with those one wants, because
- 9:58they can from the country, from the city where one is, or they
- 10:03can start from that earthly family plane. Let us enjoy life, let us
- 10:09enjoy our friends and fellow travelers. There are some that are passengers that we
- 10:13will have for a little while, for today' s matter, study or
- 10:16work, but these are permanent in some way our family, father, mother,
- 10:22sons, daughters, husband, wife, father- in- law brothers
- 10:26- in- law. In short, that is the task that it is
- 10:30for each of us to live life, live it intensely, enjoy it at
- 10:37every moment, at every moment, at every second, involving God always in
- 10:41the mural of the soul. My dear ones, I will involve God.
- 10:45Don' t ask me, don' t beg me, don' t
- 10:48fight me or bribe me to stop talking about God. I will never stop
- 10:50doing it, because God is the central axis of this podcast, but he
- 10:56taught it to him in a human organic way. I end with this how
- 11:05he takes advantage of his life. What do you do in life, not
- 11:07Fernando, I dedicate myself to work and study, because I have excellent dreams
- 11:11projects and fantastic realizations and their quality time with human beings. Oh no,
- 11:18my children, I' ll let you see the cartoons of the moment.
- 11:20I bought the complete platforms Disney Plus, Starplus, I bought Max Well,
- 11:28what do I know there are looking at their screens, on their cell phones,
- 11:31on their suchs. I bought them a board over here. One of
- 11:33them, a cell phone for you to see. I' m busy working
- 11:41aha good and your quality time with your wife. If you are married,
- 11:46not because my wife also works there always and simply. We are working to
- 11:50give you euro because we want to buy home, we want to buy car,
- 11:56we want to guarantee the best study for our children, they study in
- 11:58the best schools, they study in the best universities. We' re busy.
- 12:07This society today makes us super busy in attending to the things of the
- 12:11day that makes us misunderstood, in even caring for our loved ones. It
- 12:18is not all people who listen to this mural of the soul, nor are
- 12:22all human beings. They' re not all, but many. Conclusion,
- 12:31if we are tilting the balance more towards our study, towards our work,
- 12:37and we are not taking advantage of the quality of time and life, sharing
- 12:43it with our loved ones danger, alertness, reconsider and make decisions, because
- 12:50those who are next door are not going to last him all his life,
- 12:54they will not last us forever. Let' s take advantage of them,
- 13:01let' s get a little disconnected from the work, from the study,
- 13:07and I always and simply put a cane into the mural of the soul.
- 13:07But I also try to take time to go on a bike, enjoy my
- 13:13wife, go out, eat watching TV, sleep. But what do I
- 13:16know, because life is about that, life is full of nuances and you
- 13:20have to enjoy it. And as I said in the previous episode and it
- 13:24was the title of the previous, chapter that does not enjoy life. Life
- 13:26is ballooning, enjoy it. It' s okay to work, keep doing
- 13:33it, It' s okay to study, keep doing it, get ready,
- 13:39you' re going to open impressive doors, but take advantage of time
- 13:43and life for rest, for leisure, for the family, for friendships in
- 13:48a healthy way and, of course, and I' ll tell you until
- 13:56tiredness, involve the creator, involve God and ready life with God is bearable.
- 13:58Don' t make it pink, but it' s gonna be bearable.
- 14:01We will have problems, we will have difficulties, adversities, but with
- 14:05God life will be more bearable and we will have, as I said in
- 14:09the previous episode of the mural of the soul, a totally different perspective.
- 14:13It is well to take care of the things of life, the works of
- 14:16the cares and the things that happen in life, but let us also take
- 14:20time to enjoy life, to enjoy the simple things of life, to have
- 14:26a time to disconnect and to share with ours, but also in God'
- 14:30s way. My name David Fernando Iguera ends this episode. Well, another
- 14:33time will be where we' ll keep writing here, on Lamar' s
- 14:37mural. Thank you for listening to me, for sharing this spread it to
- 14:41whoever you want made.
