Today, 30 years later I can’t say for sure what leaded to what.Was it me discovering my talents or was it him…But the fact is that I couldn’t wait till the next class started. All of a sudden I discovered that I can do something very special. Felt really good.

Then there was that time when He asked the class: “So, kids, what do you think is the most important thing in theatre?”. We tried all the possible answers. We tried: actors, stage, the play, director, lights and so on. But none of us got it right. When we were about to throw him out of the class he spelled the answer for us: Audience. People if there is no audience there would not be any show!

Fast forward to this actual minute, while writing these words, I know for sure that the same works for the mind wolves. Check it out! Stop for a second and while listening to your own breathing witness the thoughts you have. Some of them might be about your senses and how it feels when sitting on the chair. Some might be about some bad memory you carry all the way since you were a kid. Some might be vague or natural and some might be about the happiest day of your life.

One thing is certain about all these thoughts. They just exist. Sometimes it feels like they have a life of their own. But the best thing about them is that without them there would not be a reason for a leader. With no flock of wolves the leader would have been useless.

So the next time you try to dismiss a thought, think that beyond the apparet ther is a reason for it.

Find your meaning in life and enjoy.

Sounds imaginary? Maybe, but, this is very similar to what is happening in real life to many of us. In real life, our thoughts, represented by the wolves run wild and ineffectively rule us. That is why many of us see themselves as victims of occurrences. This is why many of us find It hard believe that we will never be able to arrive to our wishful destination.

Yet, imagine yourself as a wolves taming master. How would you feel? What would you do? Can you remember that taming thoughts is in your grasp and choice?

There is a legend of an Indian grandfather telling his grandson the story of the black and white fighting wolves. The black wolf represents mistrust, offensiveness, sadness, anger, lack, pain, shame, guilt, confusion, inferiority, envy, hate, loneliness and desperation of our hearts. The white wolf represents love, happiness, compassion, hope, trust, bravery, wisdom, integrity, initiative, clarity, intimacy, patience, creativity and wholeness of our hearts. The frightened grandson immediately asked: “Grandpa, who of the wolves wins?” And the grandpa said: “The one that you feed”.

This blog will tell more on how we can feed the wolves in a more effective was, so we will be able to manifest the life of our dreams.
Talk to you soon.
