I don´t know if many of you have reached to the point where you see love as a committed decision. I don´t know if you are really convinced of this, that way I warned my close brother he has to stop smoking since our father died with cancer, and from two children he has, I was the one who spent years telling him not to smoke, since childhood: If you don´t love yourselves, you would love too little others.
These last years I have had few love affairs. I consider love important since it has to do with my drives, my human and visceral longings and hopefully it is changing from the visceral to the spiritual. Monica, the best woman I think I had, left me a special letter where she wanted me to learn the importance of loving people more than the attention I gave to things. She lovingly reasoned her arguments and wrote of the way she perceived me, when we had 9 months living together and by the moment I had to leave to work in Caracas, a place I don´t want to be in, but I work for money and to buy the livestock we buy to keep this life on.
I don´t know if I would publish her letter in English. I´m sure I feel I will publish it in Spanish -not today- just for the sake of letting people learn from other´s people experiences.
She claimed I spent too much time with things instead of people. She felt alone when I was investing too many time on learning and working, while she felt alone “at home” when I was in or out and, I will not argue with reasons: I needed knowledge to work and I needed those things I did to keep the economy of life working on: I wish I were rich to devote more time to that woman, but I have seen few people enjoy peace or great contentment in a simple life close to poverty.
It continues on: (too large to be here).
