EAGLE, FREEDOM

Lately, encounters with wild animals are more frequent, I look more for them and the they appear more as well...

This majestic eagle, flying in the sky above human misery, reminds me of the supreme value of freedom.

The following words are taken from the book "The prophet and the wind" by Stefano Biavaschi and never before do I feel them vibrate rich and deep:

“Be free. You will be free if you choose your own route.

For the fear of going there, you are slaves to all bad weather, victims of any event.

Do not think that there is more Freedom in wandering than in going.

And in the thousand shipwrecks that accompany your navigation without direction, do not swear against destiny: do not be like the sailor who blames the wind for the route of his boat. You too would say to him: you don't know how to set the sails, you don't know how to hold your rudder steady. So notice your sails, retrieve your rudder.

If you do not find reasons to do so, it is only because no one has shown you the beauty of your destination. But you should have noticed that you are dying out, that you are burning without glowing, that you are aging without having been a child.

Therefore, discover the richness of your true Freedom. Be free. And you will be free by separating Good from Evil.

I know that you often believe that Evil is necessary for Good to exist. But the Good already has in itself all the opposites it needs, just as the seed is made for the rain and for the sun. And this is enough for the seed to sprout up.

If you love, you will understand all these things. Because the Good is not your constraint, but the unfolding of your love.

In fact, your life was designed for Joy, since you have always belonged to eagle's wings."
