Believe in yourself

"‘You have to believe in yourself’, but to know our weaknesses and Achilles’s heel. Thus we can plan our strategies.

‘Convince your enemy that he will gain very little by attacking you; this will diminish his enthusiasm.’ And an opponent without passion and enthusiasm is easily defeated.

Life is a … battle in every aspect. It is said: “Everything is permitted in war and love” !! ;-))

I cannot really understand this. I consider love a mystery. When we fall ‘in love’ we enter a trans-like state, we cut out the outer world and we focus all our senses to the beloved person. We can ‘read’ every single thought and ‘sense’ every desire.

We want only joy and happiness and cannot imagine life without .. We are in a state of ecstasy but at the same time we try to keep our … integrity, self-mastery and .. freedom.. These are the moments of … doubts. At these ‘crucial’ moments we awake and ‘see’ with open eyes reality. Our logic … warns us.

If our .. intuition catches some signs of ‘negative thoughts’ which happen … naturally in every man’s mind, the ‘battle starts’! We want to win the battle and reach happiness, but at the same time we do not want to lose all other … possibilities. It is the moment that we feel ‘trapped’ by our own sentiments. This is the moment that ‘winged EROS’ becomes a …. trapped nightingale that forgets how to sing…

Is it possible to keep always our souls, the Psyche, flying.. while we are still in our material bodies?"
