Five Years by Corbett Barr
There will be an agreement in whatever variety of actions, so they be each honest and natural in their hour. – Ralph Waldo Emerson
What would you say to the person you were five years ago? What will you say to the person you’ll be in five years?
My dear natta,
I know that you have had it easy (almost) all your life,
but this time, you need to endure, and do not throw so many tears to the empty space,
because it's just the beginning and you will have the most terroristic nightmares.I'm telling you:-- "save some tears", because things will come SLOW, yet, doors will open.
There won't be love, yet there will be Wisdom.
You won't have your family next to you; you'll have solitude.
Fear will be your last name, can you change that (por favor)?.
Dharma Protectors will guide you and your Holly Master will be by your side. Yet keep praying
and practicing.
You had the choice, blue pill or red pill.
the TRUTH is difficult to believe, and very very difficult to align your life with such a deep trascedental suchness.
You'll be tempted so MANY times, and ... I'm sorry to tell you this, but... you need to taste the bitterness of failure, weakness, fear, solitude, sadness, sorrow, pain and the most horrible nostalgic feelings..., in this way...you will increase your levels of compassion to a higher transformational peak level.
You will become stronger. BELIEVE ME
You will be doing amazing things, living among the gringos, praying among Asians, and sometimes having hallucinations of Mexican tropical Paradises while driving in those crazy Californian highways...yet, you'll become a courageous panther.
do not cry so much! I'm telling you!!!!!!!!!!
and... in some point, in the road, you'll find a collection of monkish looking warriors, one of them is a great Alquimist:
Seth Godin... follow him.
keep jumping natta, do not give up my little warrior
the smallest of the small. You'll harvest your mission successfully
Arriba!

natta from the Future.
I told you, "there is always a big reward after eating bitterness"
(Chinese proverb)
I told you, "no hay mal que por bien no venga"
(Mexican proverb)
I told you how small the world looks like when cultivating Wisdom.
and now you have a new great family, and you did things that you never expect.
And all your dreams became real!
(sorry you are gringa now)
:D
If you wanna leave this planet.
you are in peace.
go.
