That lady that you told me about ... that you name ... “my mistress” is cheating on you ... by having sex with her husband, but also other men that she knows by a long time. She did that all the time.
But i also see that you cheated on her ... too.
So?! ...
What you defined as ... absolute ... is just a lie.
You must find a way to stop saying .... my ... mine etc.
Otherwise .... the book about the meaning of the ego ... that
we want to write together ... is just a nonsense.
I know you feel now ... a little bit destroyed ... but the funny thing is that only ... by sharing ... you will learn the art of detachment ... and it’s a nice saying .... the best things in life are meant to be shared.
If you can’t understand that nothing in life belongs to you ...
will remain forever connected with the Ego.
The Universe was laughing a little bit of you ... sending in your life a lady that was not so honest ... and you believed that she is the love of your life.
It was all just all just an illusion ... but only to help you understand the art of disconnecting from the concept of ... “mine”.
Am sure that you did not liked what i’ve just told you ... but ... only when we ... share ... we learn how to disconnect from the illusory self.
The test ... the Universe gave you ... was hard ... i know ... but ...”
Louis was feeling destroyed .... cause he knew that the
sorcerer was really good ... “reading” people ... and also …

reality.
Smiling he replies:
“How the hell could i be so ... blind and stupid?!
She is the best liar ... from the Universe.
She was saying to me everything i wanted to hear ... but it was all in illusion.
I am really mad that the Universe made this ... ugly joke with me ... but probably only like this we can follow the path of ... awakening.”
He left South Africa ... and did not finished the book with the sorcerer, realizing that he does not know so much about the illusion of life ... and the connection with this illusory self ... that we proudly call ... Ego.

It’s ok to not be
in the ... standards
And is also ok to laugh of the ... standards.
Just dare! .... cause ... in fact ... in life there is nothing to
lose .. or if there is something to lose that’s your ... inner self.
James was a businessman from Liverpool.
He was a weird guy obsessed by the 2 contradictory things ... money and philosophy.
Because of that ... his life was looking totally different of the lives of others.
Even if he was a good businessman ... the philosophical stuff from his mind ... was not letting him enjoy the money he had.
In the beggining ... James bought a beautiful house and a beautiful car ... but soon he understood that ... this is useless.
He felt that something was missing ... and a car could not be that piece of the puzzle that he could not find anywhere. Time was passing and his friends became wealthy too.
They all had the last models of Jaguar or Land Rover ... but James continued to drive his old ugly Opel, which he bought from Germany many, many years ago.
They were all discussing about how weird he is.

Even his wife, his mistress and his ex sex mate were totally annoyed of this nonsense behavior of him.
How could a businessman ... which in fact was a successful guy ... to be so silly to keep a car like that in his garage?! What the hell is really going on?!
Maybe the guy lost all his money and in fact he is not so wealthy as it might look?!
I mean ... how can you drive an Opel from 1996 ... when you are in business by 25 years?!
So ... James ... was seen as a practician of nonsense... and they were still talking to him, because in the past his model of success influenced them a lot in a positive way.
But what he could not influence them today ... was to make them realize that the Jaguar and the Land Rover ... are not the real values that we should follow in life.
Having enough seeing them all ... laughing of him behind his back ... even they pretended they were close to him ... he goes to London and buys 2 beautiful cars ... a Jaguar from 1956 and a Land Rover from 1977.
Seeing that ... started to call each other ... saying ... “What the hell is going on?!
Why did he bought those cars?!
He certainly lost his minds.
Why can’t he be like us ... and buy the last model of Jaguar or Land Rover?!
What’s wrong with him?!
But can someone tell us ... much costed those cars?!”
His ex sex mate was talking with his close friend, then that guy was talking with James’s mistress ... the mistress was

talking to her husband ... and James became one more time the main subject of their discussions.
Most probably they were all annoyed that he was laughing of their standards and the beautiful cars they had.
James showed them the path of success years ago ... and now he was telling them something contradictory ... that it was just a pathless path.
They all laughed of him behind his back, but he was laughing ... of what it meant values for them ... hoping that they will see soon the message.
Somehow ... James was not allowed by his philosophical ideas to be aligned in the standards ... as his friends were aligned.
But ... he lost any kind of influence on them.
The only thing left ... was to show them ... maybe for the last time, before disconnecting from them as souls ... that in life we can taste lots of things ... and not care so much about ... standards.

All we see ... especially the things we dislike are just ...
messages from the Universe.
When i write i always keep in mind that what i am saying might help to the others.
I had over the years lots of intensive experiences .... and just
by sharing with the others ... the things that we define as “weird” ... might help each other to follow paths ... for a beautiful life.
I somehow kept a statistic of all that was going on in my life ... and as i already knew ... each time there was something that i disliked ... in fact ... that was a message. I mean a message .... from the Universe.
I did not liked something that someone from my life told me, or i did not liked ... a reaction, a scene i was seeing when i was walking on the streets, or something i saw on tv etc etc. It was usually something that was ... fucking my vibe. But ... guess what?!
I became annoyed all the time.
And everything was so ... repetitive.
On and on and on ... the same things ... were fucking my vibe all the time.
Until one day ... when i finally remembered that the Universe is actually a positive character ... which we sometimes call …

Infinite Intelligence ... and would not keep telling me the same things unless it should be very, very important.
So ... i redefined the meaning of “fucking my vibe” ... into a blessing ... and instead of being annoyed i started to meditate more and more about it ... what is the message behind the message.
Did i got the answers right away?!
Well ... of course not.
I am just an ordinary person, that did not payed the right attention to spirituality ... same as many, many others humans from this plannet .... but at least today i know that i
should keep my eyes opened and also that i should analyze more the abstract, especially when it is happening into a repetitive way.
I know is going to be hard to stop being annoyed ... to see a blessing in something that is ruining us emotionally .... but
maybe we should always remember that ... everything is happening with a reason.
... just keep that in mind ... and always ask yourself ... what is the message behind the message.

It’s incredible to see the hope
from their souls.
You could almost believe that they all went to motivational schools in Ukraine
Wanting to help in a way or another the refugees that comes from Ukraine to my country ... i go to the Central Railroad Station.
Somehow it looked like they were in transit in here and even if i saw so many on the tv, they already left from Bucharest. I then go to Bus Station when i heard that refugees are coming also ... and i find in there few people to talk with. But i see that ... there were actually more policemen and volunteers than refugees.
A guy from Police explained me that they come here, but later on they just prepare to leave to Spain, Italy, Germany and other countries from Western Europe.
But a lady with her 3 daughters appears ... and we start to chat.
She was not speaking english .... but only ukrainian language
and russian.
A guy comes and helps us with the translation.
Then a lady from police comes to me.

She wanted to know what i really want and ask for my id. She even makes a copy of my id and takes my phone number ... but i explain to her that i want to take Maria (that was the name of the lady having 3 kids) at my home. Hearing that the lady from Police started to be annoyed.
“So you came in here to take a lady at your home.
Hmm”
“Yes!
But not only one.
want 6-7 ladies.
can host all of them, including their kids” ... i reply.
The lady from Police ... became really annoyed to hear this.
“So you actually came in here to take 6-7 ladies from Ukraine
at your home”
“Yes!
I know that all the ladies from Ukraine are beautiful, but if you would listen to me ... i said .. ladies with kids. We want to help them.
I am married.
I am not looking for a wife ... or 6-7 wives.”
I was probably not on the right frequency ... cause this weird lady from Police ... totally disagreed with me.
But ignoring what she said ... Maria took her 2 bags and the 3 daughters and comes to my car.
I had kind of a bar in a residential complex and we reconverted it into a small apartment right away. When Maria came ... it was still looking like a bar.
We explained to her to not worry cause we will succeed in 2-3 hours to finish.

Well ... it took us about 10 hours to do it.
Everyone from the complex came and helped.
Brought food, chocolate, fruits ... everything they needed.
Maria could not believe it.
She was so happy.
She smiled all the time.
My friend Paul, the plumber that helped us make the bathroom ... was watching her and asked me ... “How the hell she succeeds to have this smiley face?!
She’s a single mother, with 3 kids ... and left her country
with only 2 bags in her hands ... and she has no idea what
she’s going to do next.
I just can’t believe it!
I don’t see any sign of worry on her face.”
Paul ... which is a little bit depressive ... could not believe that Maria was so powerful ... and confident.
We succeeded in the end to reconvert the bar of the complex
... and everybody came to speak to her and her little daughters of 5, 7 and 9 years old.
It was the first time after a year and a half when we were using the bar.
And ... if you can believe it ... even if in the residential complex everyone was consuming lots of alcohol ... the bar was not used.
We did not know how to connect to each other and even if we could name that place the Alcohol Deposit, cause in all the houses everyone had lots of alcohol ... we did not realized in a year and a half that we could also drink .. together.

Maria smiles when i tell her the story of the reconverted bar ... and suddenly the Police is calling me.
That police woman was annoyed ... one more time ... cause i did not called her to give a report about what i did.
She wanted the location, photos ... and she also wanted to talk to Maria.
The lady was ... just crazy.
5 minutes later she calls again.
“Ah! You want to come and arrest me?! I am here. Come!” “No! I wanted to apologize ... cause i looked at the photos ... and they all smile.
Could not believe it!
You are not a bad person ... as i thought ... and i want to apologize for that.”
I smile ... “Yes! I know ... i look as a jerk ... but i am not. Or maybe i’ve been a jerk all my life ... and i succeed to redefine myself.
But it looks like ... i still look as a jerk.
Hahahaha”
I somehow realize that ... we do live in a crazy world ... with very silly standards.
People are not used to help other people.
And i look at all the people from the timeline of my life ... and even if they have everything they could ever want ... I can’t see that smiley face Maria has.
... and Maria has nothing ... than her 3 daughters and 2 bags with few clothes.
So ... i look at all the idiots around me ... seeing them so unhappy all the time, even if they have everything they ever

wanted ... and on the other side i see a single mother, that abandoned everything she had in Odesa ... and like all the others i can’t understand where from she has so much optimism.
How she does it?!
Do they have motivational schools in Ukraine?!
Why Maria is not depressive?!
Why she has that smiley face?!
Somehow ... i do believe that when we lose everything we have ... we remember that inside of us we do have that inner self that can guide us ... and have such an optimism ... like Maria is acting today.
Truth be told we ignored all the refugees from Syria and lots of other non european countries, non feeling connected to them, but it’s still ok cause today we found out how to connect with the ones from Ukraine.
Maria is for me now ... just looking at her smile ... a person that makes me understand the power of motivation.
Is a real example ... for me and the ones that meet her. And i start even to believe that all the books i read over the years about motivation ... are useless.
Maria explained me in few hours ... all it’s really about this abstract concept ... that we ... the ones that have everything
... can’t understand even if we look at motivational movies or quotes ... or read 1000 books about the subject.
