The Fundamental Rule

3 posts in this topic

Welcome to the Love Simulator.
Here, people will spit on you, step on you, humiliate you, and abandon you.
And still, your task is to smile at them, help them, and treat them kindly.

Because when Christ said:
"Turn the other cheek,"
He wasn’t speaking of weakness.
He was revealing the fundamental rule of this simulator.

God whenever I get even angrier, allow me to be even Kinder.

The Great Answer

 

We were born as kings in Love, gods praised with affection and tenderness. But soon came the first rejection from our father, the first disappointment from our mother, the first mockery at school. We kept growing, and with each passing year, the insults multiplied—humiliations, betrayals, abandonment, and rejection. Maybe we were lucky: smart, attractive, popular... But even so, we couldn’t stop people from laughing behind our backs. We couldn’t stop our father from being an alcoholic.

 

With time, life turned gray.

 

We searched for help. We went to a psychologist and, at first, we liked him. But then we realized he, too, was confused. So we tried another, and then another. We filled an album with psychiatrists, psychologists, coaches, shamans, therapists, priests, counselors, psychics, and gurus. But nothing fulfilled us.

 

Some of us call this darkness depression. Others anxiety. Others addiction. But no one really seems to know what this darkness is, how it works, or where it comes from.

 

And then, by some strange chance, you arrive at a modest clinic in San Miguel de Allende. There, for the first time, you hear The Great Answer. An answer that—without exaggeration—is worth more than the two hundred thousand pesos your parents paid each month at university.

 

“Why?” you ask. “Why, after dolphins, shamans, light therapy, mystical music, and ancestral medicine, has nothing worked?”

 

And then a bold man—some call him a saint, others a madman—shouts the most powerful truth you’ll ever hear:

 

"BECAUSE OF RESENTMENT!"

 

You're resentful. No one ever taught you how this game of life really works.

 

When you were born, you expected flowers and gifts, praise and celebration. And the first time they made fun of your braces or glasses at school, instead of thanking them and smiling, you insulted them back. Or you spoke badly of them.

 

When someone hit you in fifth grade, you screamed for help, called the police, and when they arrested the boy, instead of hoping he’d become a better person, you laughed inside and wished he’d be abused in jail.

 

Do you see the pattern?

 

Every time someone hurt you, you hurt back.

 

And so, anxiety, depression, and darkness kept growing—until you reached high school… and fell into addiction.

 

But in that clinic, by pure chance, you heard that madman say:

 

"God, when I get angry, help me be kind. Because my salvation depends on it."

 

And your eyes were opened.

 

You left the clinic and lived clean until the day you died. Because you truly understood.

And from that day on, you awakened.

 

Now you return with peace to a world still lost in darkness. You are a witness to the Answer. To communicate it is not easy—you must become its living example. But if you do, you may receive what that madman promised:

 

Salvation.

 

Or put another way:

A happy and useful life.

Why do you feel like you need to be good when Jesus died for your sins?

Sometimes it's the journey itself that teaches/ A lot about the destination not aware of/No matter how far/
How you go/How long it may last/Venture life, burn your dread
