Cartas desde el mundo: un lector vuelve a compartir
En CEC no sólo queremos hablar de series y cine. Sería un terrible error incurrir en aquello que, precisamente, denunciamos aquí. Es por ello que hoy traemos un nuevo poema enviado por Jack The Chap, lector del que ya publicamos la semana pasada poemas del campo "Expect the unexpected"
Sobre las obsesiones, tan sólo decir unas palabras que consideramos importantes. Es una de las grandes lacras humanas que acaban con nosotros encerrándonos en unas cavilaciones inamoviblemente eternas. La flexibilidad mental, la imaginación, el romper con lo aprendido y tener la fuerza interior, la vida y el impulso de salir de la rumiaciones será clave en la salvación de cada uno.
Sin darnos cuenta, paulatinamente y en el silencio de los sufrimientos sentidos nos vamos deslizando hacia la fijación en determinadas ideas que a la larga nos perjudican, pues merman nuestra capacidad de mirar más allá de las fronteras que nosotros mismos delimitamos. Es el primer esbozo de una cárcel que, con los años, va concretándose hasta quedar bien dibujada y solidificada en nuestro imaginario.
Se suele decir que, a medida que pasan los años, el carácter se agría. Y los defectos se perfilan quedando al descubierto más rápidamente, quedamos estancados en el empecinamiento compulsivo.
Recuerda el póster en la pared: Elige tu futuro, elige la vida.
At CEC we don't just want to talk about T.V shows. It would be a tremendous mistake for us closing the gates of other cultural approaches. Therefore, we bring a new poem today sent by Jack The Chap. Last week we published his poems from the fields "Expect the unexpected".
About obsessions, we would like to say a few important words that we consider each one of us should bear in mind. Fixation is one of the great human scourges that ends up with us locked in unmovable eternal thoughts.
There is no salvation possible unless we fight the ruminations with mental flexibility, imagination, inner strength and desire to get out of the vicious circle. A rupture with what has been learned teaches us it is the only way to get along with what we really are and what we really need (which is certainly not getting stuck in the progressive alienation suffered). We are ALL able to think out of the box, we were ALL born with the ability to understand and accept the incomprehensible because ALL of us were conceived with a mental universality.
But without realizing we gradually slide towards fixation. Silently, with all our agony bottled up and unexpressed, we just flow following the stream of accomodation. At the beginning the warm spark of comfort surprises us: it is the outline of our own jail what we are picturing. As time goes by, the prison borders concretise and the cause of well being turns gradually into a toxic nightmare of which you cannot escape. At this stage, the cell is well drawn and solidified in your mind. You can fight it back or stay still. The second choice will lead to the dead end of Zombieland.
It is often said that as the years go by the character becomes sour, flaws emerge from one another and are exposed quicker. Stuck in the compulsive stubbornness we are the shadow of what we could have been.
Remember the poster on the wall: Choose your future, Choose life.

"Obsessed, the quest?"
Preservation of life, the ultimate Grail,
Without obsession, life doomed to fail.
Obsessed to succeed,
Driven, achieved.
Questions form, answers unknown,
Obsession for knowledge, already grown.
Studied, listened, remembered, observed.
Data computed, knowledge learned.
Passion suppressed, fills the void,
Obsession for love, suddenly buoyed.
Beauty, lust, romance gained.
Happiness, compassion, loyalty fade.
Obsession for truth, the missing link,
Infinite searching, inside, think.
Freedom created, obsession gone,
Drive abandoned, no need to go on.
