Relatos de transformación y esperanza

I was afraid of what people would think of me, until

I realized that they think anyway.
I was afraid of being rejected, until I understood
that I had to have faith in myself...

I was afraid of pain, until I learned that pain is
necessary to grow.
I was afraid of the truth, until I discovered the

ugliness of lies.
I was afraid of death, until I learned that it is not the

end, but rather the beginning.
I was afraid of hate, until I realized that it is nothing
but ignorance.

I was afraid of ridicule, until I learned to laugh at
myself.

I was afraid of getting old, until I realized that I was
gaining wisdom day by day.
I was afraid of the past, until I understood that it is
only my mental projection and cannot hurt me

anymore.
I was afraid of darkness, until I saw the beauty of

the light of a star.
I was afraid of change, until I saw that even the
most beautiful butterfly needed to go through a

metamorphosis before it could fly.
Let's make our lives more alive every day and if we

feel faint let's not forget that in the end there is
always something else.
We must live intensely because life passes quickly.
