Recognize the Light that you carry within

🎧 Listen to the original voice message from La Jardinera

Once, going to the Camino de Santiago, there was a village (a village is a tiny, tiny village) it was very far from the cities. Of course no one passed there, but what a coincidence that at dusk there is a group of (young) boys who were walking and suddenly saw a streetlight. A light, or a lantern that was on, "Ah, let's see!." They approached and when they arrived there was a man who was sitting with his lantern.

And when they saw him, the young people said, but if he is blind, he is blind! How can a blind man carry a flashlight if he can't see it?! and they started laughing at him, they laughed and said "but let's see."

He was older already the gentleman. - “Grandpa, why are you wearing it, if you can't see it?, if you can't see it. What does he care?!

And the other one too, all the young people started, they laughed, they made comments. What always happens when there is a small group. And suddenly that man said:

-"yes, it's true, I'm blind that's how I was born and every night, every night, that is, when the sun goes down, at sunset, I turn on this flashlight or lantern as you want and I go out into the forest to walk." And they looked at him again,

\ -But what is he looking at? What does he want to see?

- "No, what I want is that people like you, when they see the light, do not get lost, do not fall and can reach their destination. If there were not this light, would they have found the way?

Then the young people looked at each other and were embarrassed! And they said, “I think we have exaggerated, right? - "Yeah".

And they said, "excuse us sir, excuse us." Truly we had not understood that although you have the light, we are the blind.

And so, we learn that you don't always have to judge the why? does such a thing or carries light or is in the dark.

There is always a reason, always and that Light is the one that we carry inside and that recognized the old man. The guide, who is always by your side. That he accompanies you as your Guardian Angel and that he always goes with the Light for when you are afraid, when you are insecure, when you doubt.

Always remember that you will find that guide with the flashlight on.

That is called the luck of recognizing it and seeing it with the soul, not with the eyes, with the soul.

With all my love,
