ONE DAY … ONE SOUL
… destroying and rebuilding ourselves
INTRODUCTION
Over the years i’ve been meeting lots of people ... which i the end ... i would like to call them ... souls.
In fact i was dealing with thousands of them ... and i had moments when i’ve wondered myself ... why do i meet the whole spectrum of the human beings?!
What is the message behind that?!
What the Universe is trying to whisper to me?!
But what i can say that it was funny ... was that i met people i liked, people i disliked, people that i liked and then i disliked and ... people i disliked and then i liked.
The interactions were of so many different types ... that i almost started to believe that i am at school ... a school where i need to understand what the human being is.
But i had to understand ... the whole spectrum of them ... no matter who they were.
There were moments when i was almost forced to deal with certain prototypes of souls that i not even thought that exist. Yes ... i felt ... forced by the Universe ... to meet many of those persons ... but i knew it was a reason it was happening.
I had events when I thought some people were trying to destroy me ... but at the end of those stories i had become a better and also stronger person.

… destroying and rebuilding ourselves
And i also met persons that i thought that they will somehow rebuild myself ... and ended the story with them almost ruined emotionally.
But i realized one thing ... everything had a purpose ... to reveal me what life is about ... by having so many interconnections with the people from the world.
Today ... same as always ... i still love socializing ... with everybody ... but i don’t judge the connections anymore.
I see it as a ... life experience ... and in fact as a blessing in my evolution as a human being.
I know that every human i met ... it’s just a reflection of my inner self.
When i meet good people ... i need to pay attention at all those positive attributes i see ... but also keep them active as much as i can in my personality.
And when ... i meet people i dislike ... i have the courage to admit that they are ... the reflection of that part of myself ... which in fact i dislike.
But ... i admit that i still have moments when i believe in the illusion of life ... believe in the duality ... and that i am not wise enough.
I continue to analyze and define everything i see on the timeline of my own life ... but also keep active the process of redefining myself.
And i love being the witness of ... my life.

Let the time stop ... and enjoy the present moment
Lorenzo was an italian guy ... 59 years old ... already retired. He used to be very active in the past, being involved in the construction business ... near Milano.
Today he lives in a town close to Belgrade ... just him and his dog.
I met Lorenzo 3-4 times and chatted with him about lots of things ... including life.
He loved to socialize ... same as i did.
What is funny is that every time when i’ve asked him ...
“How are you?!” ... he used to say ... “Nothing”.
... but he said it with joy.
I did not understood the message in the beginning, but last time when he said it to me ... i saw so much joy in the ...
“Nothing!” ... that in the end i realized that he was very happy having this kind of life.
One day ... he told me a little bit about his life in Milano.
He used to have 60-70 workers in his construction company.
Worked with lots of clients from all around Italy.
People were not coming at work ... at the proper time, clients were not paying in time, lots of problems with construction permits etc etc.

ONE DAY … ONE SOUL
… destroying and rebuilding ourselves
Lorenzo used to say ... defining his life ... “I lived all my life chasing success. I was waking up at 5 am and got back from work at 10 o’clock in the night.
I wanted to be millionaire ... to have a huge construction company ... to be somebody on the stage of the community where i was from.
And all that actually happened ... but i had so many problems because of this dream ... that i could never enjoy life.
Maybe is funny as someone like you ... that is still young to hear this story ... which is in fact a story about the other side of success.
I was living my life having all the time a long to do list, but i never added in tens of years of work ... on that damm list ... the duty to enjoy life.
And guess what?! I missed that.
My ... whole life.
Close to 55, because of a huge business that i’ve been involved in ... it happened that i lost everything.
I even lost my beautiful villa from Milano, my wife divorced being mad on me that we lived such a life ... when we actually had no time to enjoy the life itself.
Today, here ... close to Belgrade ... in this small house that i rented ... i still have the stupid habit to write every morning the to do list.
But i add only one thing on that damm list .... “NOTHING”.
This is the only way in how ... at the end of my life, i will probably enjoy it ... in silence.”

ONE DAY … ONE SOUL
… destroying and rebuilding ourselves
I was socked at that time ... hearing Lorenzo’s story ... cause it was for me a period when i was reading lots of personal growth books about ... success, planning, etc etc.
And ... it was a total contradiction what i was reading in those books ... with what Lorenzo told me ... but his story was a real one ... not a theoretical concept.

“God will put you back
together right in front of
the people ...who broke you!”
I started 2022 with a trial.
Same people that i considered friends in December, called me
to count in January.
I could not believe it.
It was almost ... a nightmare.
And those 2 people ... husband and wife ... and their lawyer, a lady of about 35 ... defined me in front of the judge ... almost as a war criminal.
They analyzed all the aspects of the contract we had ... and used everything they could against me.
Staying in the court room, without a lawyer by my side, believing in a silly way in my innocence ... at one point i felt i was actually in checkmate.
But you know ... i do believe in the Universe.
On the way to the count ... feeling totally unprepared for the trial ... i call a good friend that happens to be a great sorcerer.
The guy studied magic in a tribe from Africa ... many, many years ago ... and has a great experience.
I tell him the whole story and he starts to laugh.
Adrian Gabriel Dumitru

ONE DAY … ONE SOUL
… destroying and rebuilding ourselves
He could not stop himself.
“Hahahahahaha!
I cannot believe it!
You really are an idiot.
Their lawyer will kill you in front of the judge and will not be able to do anything at all ... not having the right experience. But is funny ... cause you still believe in magic. I like you ... for that.
Let me see what i can do.
Just go ... and act on the stage ... in the courtroom ...
however you can!”
I left the courtroom totally convinced i will lose the trial, but few days later the sorcerer calls me and says: “I was looking in the magic ball ... and you won the trial.”
“Impossible! I know you are a good sorcerer ... but i believe it can’t be true”.
I look over the internet ... and surprise .. i won the trial.
So ... magic ... just happened.
And i was thinking ... “How the hell the magic practices from a tribe from Africa ... can influence the judge from my trial?! It’s a nonsense ... but i won the trial”
Thinking deeper ... i realize that maybe i should call again my friend, the sorcerer ... to ask him ... if he can arrange things so that the Universe will put me back together right in front of those people ... who tried to brake me.
But maybe it should be ... a nonsense ... even if my whole life is defined by lots of nonsenses and weird situations.

Believing that they are having great powers ... same as the Universe ...
some people become great creators of illusions for the others.
And it so funny cause it looks so damm ... real.
But we can smile in the end ... seeing the same story ... the same people ... before and after the awakening ... but also before and after the echo of the initial intentions. Colombia. 2018.
Fernando was a real estate investor.
With the money made from his legal, but also illegal businesses ... he builds a residential complex with houses for rent ... and decides to retire at the early age of 40.
He tries to forget all the sources from where his money came from ... believing that he can fool the Universe and start to live a happy relaxing life ... not carrying anymore about the past.
But the Universe started to laugh of Fernando.
Lets him finish the complex, rent all his houses ... but in fact sends in his residential complex all types of crazy people. Before seeing his dream of having this renting business ...
Fernando was living with the illusion that everything will be perfect ... but after he started to rent the houses ... it was

really funny seeing him in the middle of a nightmare.
He was fucked up ... or at least this is what he thought.
Until one day ... when it all became even worst as that.
2 of his tenants, husband and wife ... started to think how they could rob Fernando.
They started with lots of complains at the authorities ... and ended up at Police ... accusing him of very serious but also illusory things.
Fernando could not believe it and was telling to himself ... “I’ve done so many illegal things over the years ... to get rich and now i end up ... like a silly illegalist ... having nonsense accusations”.
His tenants found some tricks to fool the authorities ... and loved to see that they were paying attention of their accusations.
But one day ... Fernando suddenly remembers that he lives in Columbia ... the same country where he did lots of money doing illegal things ... without as nothing to happen.
Calls the Chief of Police ... invites him at a coffee and asks him for a favor:
“Nicolas! I need you to help me with something.
No matter what those persons tells about me ... i want as the reply of the authorities to be ... It could not be confirmed” Nicolas smiles and agrees to help him.
Suddenly ... the 2 tenants ... started to be socked.
No matter where they went ... no matter how good their lawyer was ... everyone was telling them ... “It is not confirmed”.
They could not believe it.

ONE DAY … ONE SOUL
… destroying and rebuilding ourselves
Their accusations looked so damm real ... but no one was believing them anymore.
Fernando changed his vibe ... and was not afraid anymore of his silly tenants ... that were having so immoral intentions regarding him.
Now his illusion ... had been metamorphosed into the illusion of his tenants ... like an echo.
Fernando was laughing ... and his enemies became very angry not really understanding ... the echo of the illusion they created in such a diabolic way.
But at least today ... Fernando knows the meaning of the expression ... “Sometimes the Universe is just laughing behind our back.”
... maybe just as a ... karmic lesson.

We should not let allow
anyone .... destroy us ... no
matter who that person might be.
Tito was a great yugoslavian leader, that was sometimes defined in history as Stalin’s little brother.
But the big difference between him and Stalin is that even today ... many people from the ex Yugoslavia still see Tito as a great politician and a positive character from their country. In Russia ... the next second after Stalin died ... lots of voices appeared and said that lots of things he did ... were wrong.
But till one point Stalin was a great politician also, cause he is one of the great winners of second world war.
Being a nationalist, following all the time only the yugoslavian interests ... Tito was acting as Stalin’s clone in Eastern Europe.
He wanted as Albania and Bulgaria to become part of Yugoslavia ... sent military troops in Albania, close to the border of Greece and did all kinds of other things ... in Stalin’s style, but without asking for Stalin’s permission. The leader from Moscow became very angry on him starting from 1948, and even thought of a having an military invasion in Yugoslavia, coming through Hungary and Romania ... but realizing that it could probably start a new world war ... he decides to just send assassins to kill Tito.

Sent 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ... and nothing happened.
Tito discovered all of them ... and having enough, forgetting about any diplomacy ... in 1950 he writes to Stalin:
“Stop sending assassins! I already discovered 5, one with a
bomb, one with a gun ... If you’ll not stop sending
assassins ... then i will also send one to Moscow and it will be
not necessary to send the second one.”
Tito had the guts to write this to Stalin ... who was at that time kind of living god ... on this plannet.
I find the story as a beautiful motivational episode from our history ... to not allow anyone from the timeline of our lives ... no matter who that person is ... to destroy us. Having the guts to tell them the truth ... in front of their eyes ... is maybe the best strategy we could follow.
