We don't have to transform our life ...

These thirty (31) days of December, I invite you to stop for a moment and give Thanks 🙏♥️ for what you have, what you have learned, what you love, and for the difficulty that made you grow …

2025 has been a year where the word I've heard the most is UNCERTAINTY. And the thing about uncertainty is that although we do not know what is going to happen, the signs of the environment make us believe that it may be negative.

The body needs to be taken care of well, because our brain also gets sick. We have to open our minds, we have to understand things very well as they are because we human beings are mind, body, soul and spirit, each part deserves your attention, it is useless to do exercises if we eat badly, it is also useless to pray to heal ourselves if we do not put ourselves into action, and much less can we ask God for things like: happiness or what am I, if we are boors or walk on crooked roads.

So the best thing and it has worked for me halfway when uncertainty overwhelms me, is to ask myself... what is under my control? Because we often put our energy into the things we don't control, which the Stoics approached with a key concept: the dichotomy of control.

Putting your energy into processes that are beyond your control is not only ineffective but produces suffering. Putting your attention on how you react to events, on your decisions and what you can do is what protects you the most in the face of uncertainty.

This last month of the year, comes with it, that feeling of uncertainty of "I should have done more" because the pressure to finish what we did not achieve appears the pressure to finish what we have not achieved in 11 months. But maybe this month is not about running, but about recognizing our steps, letting go, accepting and allowing ourselves to get to our rhythm, without getting carried away by the rush, liking what we achieve, making space for what is to come, without having to feel that we are ready for everything, the most important thing is NOT HAVING TO MEET other people's EXPECTATIONS, only ours, we must listen to ourselves better.

Although sometimes life is heavy... 💔 and we feel our heart cramped.

And yet, we keep going: smiling, caring, working, believing, thanking, because even in the midst of difficulty, we find small reasons to sustain ourselves and remind ourselves that we are not alone, when our heart feels exhausted. Sometimes the only thing that keeps us standing alive and moving is that old and knew way of saying "I recognize what I receive and give back in balance" and watch every time you laugh this mantra, how life responds... And what do you think you control? I read you in comments.
