What you need, you have

My dear and beloved Seeds,

Today we are going to go to the sea. It is Sunday and we are going to the ocean. The sea is blue, transparent, and beautiful. We are going to a whole coral coast, where some very beautiful crabs live. And one day a crab came out and looked around and said:

- Why do I always have to live here? Why do I always have to be in the middle of the corals? Why couldn't I go to the other side? Always seeing the same! Always the same!

And his friends looked at him

- But what do you need?

They said:

- You have everything: food, the sea is the most beautiful place, and we can play, swim, jump.

- Yes, but we are always in the same place, always

And his friends again said:

- We don't understand you.

And they continued to play, to jump, to meet other friends, other crabs and while they were talking our dear crab said

- I'm going.

He started jumping, swimming and went to shore, but his friends had told him:

- Be very careful, there is a lot of danger on the shore, don't go! do not go because men are very cruel to us and there are also animals that can harm you.

He had answered several times:

- Bah! This is nonsense, if I can defend myself here I can defend myself anywhere

  • Yes, but this is your house and you know it

He ignored it and went to shore. On the shore he looked at the sand, the waves that came and went and he also saw footsteps. They were forms of feet that he ignored and that the water would come and fill and then would withdraw. And he said:

- What fun! There are drawings here, and how far you can see where I lived, but at least here I breathe.

And suddenly there was a hand, he did not know where it came from, and it took him away, and the crab said:

- Where am I going? Where am I? What happened?

And when he realised they had put him in a pot to boil, it was simply a fisherman who found him like so many others. The crab reflected and said:

  • All my life, all this time thinking, reflecting, to be able to come to shore, to end up here?

He was very disappointed, very disappointed. They placed him on the plate and there he finished.

My dear seeds, many times it happens that we desire what is foreign, that we always envy the greatest of others, the most beautiful houses, the largest car, car or machine. We always like what we don't have or want what we can't achieve, and sometimes we are never satisfied, we always want more when we actually have enough to live each day. What is oxygen, understanding and, above all, patience.

Breathing is already a life and each day that passes, imagine, how many lives.

With all my love,

La Jardinera.

It is not forbidden to eat crabs, or to eat oysters or crustaceans, no. We help each other and remember that everything is used in this life, everything.

Happy Sunday.
