Life as it is

The purpose of life is the search for happiness in a world full of diversity of thoughts and actions; where experiences are acquired every day through trial and error.

There are people with numerous material possessions, but with their empty souls, they are not happy with what little they have, and much less will be happy with how much they will have. In today's world we live in a daily discordance that goes beyond reality.

Money can solve situations but it does not buy happiness, it can indulge tastes and whims but never buy feelings, there are people with a lot of talent but with an unstable and unsuccessful personal life, dedicated but poorly paid workers, people who criticize the faults of others but they do not look in their own mirror, it is easy to criticize, it is difficult to accept, that is reality, the world is not complex, it is the people and their ideas that make it complex.

In the world we know there are many complaints about nonsense, when we really need to worry about more important things like finding our inner peace, working to be better people every day.
