008 - Around the World, in a Carriage

008 - Around the World, in a Carriage 

One winter afternoon,

the Coachman, his thoughts once again drifting to his beloved Fairy,

decided to make a wish:

To travel Around the World with her.

He used the telephone

and asked her politely if she could drive him to the city,

for a task far from where he lived.

The Fairy,

responded to his request and told him:

- Get ready, I'm coming to pick you up.

The Coachman went out and waited for her outside his house.

The Fairy,

arrived very quickly in her beautiful Carriage.

The Coachman stepped inside, 

and the first thing he admired was the Fairy.

 

Stunning as always,

she was wearing a beautiful winter dress.

Her alabaster legs

caught the Coachman’s eye,

and he immediately turned his face toward the road.

He thought to himself:

- If you start fantasizing now, in the heart of winter,

   about the summer with those wonderful summer dresses,

   how will you ever manage?

 

At once, he turned his face back to hers, looking at her.

He gazed intently into her eyes and the Light they emitted.

He confessed to her:

- Because of my work as a Coachman,

   I am not used to sitting in the passenger seat.

   But today, on this journey,

   I am fully enjoying your company.

He had learned this from his little Fairy

a story she had told him about a journey

starring a Panda and a little Dragon.

In every meeting with his beloved Fairy,

the Coachman 

collects the Spiritual Nourishment that flows from her lips.

Some of it

he places in the treasury of his Heart,

and some in the treasury of his Mind.

He literally adores her.

Again, he confessed:

- I don't want this Journey to end,

   so that I may cherish your Companionship!

He felt as if he were traveling Around the World with her.

 

Even if the Carriage were to stop, he wanted to stay there with her.

That is where his Time finds meaning.

At some point, they reached a place

where the Coachman offered

to help the Fairy with a task she had.

Afterward, the Fairy bid him goodbye and departed.

A sense of Bittersweet Joy (Charmolypi) overcame him.

Joy, for the moments he shared with his beloved,

listening to her melodic Voice.

Sorrow, for the time she would be away from him

until they met again.

Suddenly, his Heart leaped at the ring of his phone

it was his beloved.

She called to ask if he wanted her to drive him closer

to where his work was.

All he wanted was to be with her,

and he was so gladdened by her call.

He felt her care,

and this rekindled his Heart and his Body!

Now, he walked through the frozen afternoon toward his

destination, without feeling the cold.

His wish had been fulfilled.

To travel Around the World with her!

- My Soul!

- It was my honor to accompany you on this Journey!

007 - The River of the Soul

007 - The River of the Soul

A Dialogue with my Soul, before the mirror:

- I cannot believe it!

- Believe what?

- I tell you, I saw it!

- What did you see?

- They used to say it was a Myth…

- What Myth? I don’t understand what you are telling me.

- I tell you, it was hidden deep within me. I saw it, it is immense!

- You are going to drive me mad; please, explain it to me.

- I lived it, do you not believe me?

- I believe you; you are always honest with Me.

- This morning I left lost in thought, after yesterday's news.

- I know, I smiled at you, but you only gave me a fleeting glance. 

You didn't even say good morning.

- Forgive me. You know I Love you! Shall I continue?

- Yes, I am Listening; I will not interrupt you.

- I left the house brooding over what she had told me. 

I hadn’t said anything to her, nor done or given anything... 

You know, I always think differently otherwise, 

I do not "Live," and I feel as though I am in a state of Non-existence.

- Why would she renounce me? 

What caused it? 

In the car, a song was playing.

I won’t tell you which one. 

Everything moves me. 

Because behind these creations lies the manifestation 

of the Souls that brought them to life.

And then it came, the first. 

The first Tear. 

But not the last...

An unstoppable flow began.

Uncontrollable.

With a steady, constant rhythm. 

Without sobs.

I lost control.

They were no longer mere drops. 

It was like a faucet left slightly open.

My clothes were soaked as if I had stepped into the Sea. 

Yes, I was a shipwrecked soul in the Ocean of Emotions... 

My Body, like a lifeline in the midst of the deep.

I had to endure, to be saved. 

I was praying for it to stop.

I didn't know how. 

A struggle for survival, lasting nearly an hour.

And finally, a Miracle happened.

- How?

- With the Sunrise!

- Is it possible? In that way?

Yes! Within the Sun, I saw her!

- Can you hear me? 

I saw her face! 

She smiled at me! She dried my Tears!

That was it.

The storm ceased. 

The Ocean of Emotions grew still the moment I saw her Form. 

Who brought forth this Harmony and Peace? 

She did!

She, who gave me nothing, 

did nothing for me, 

and said nothing to me.

Outwardly, nothing. 

But inwardly? 

She did so much.

Her Soul gave me Meaning;

She did me Good!

She spoke words to me 

with her Eyes 

and her Smile!

- Will you finally tell me who she is?

 - She knows!

- You know too...

- What I didn't know was about you.

I didn't know that you, my Soul,

 could also take this Form,

the form of a River…

How could you, in just one hour of Time,

manifest as a River of Tears,

stretching a hundred kilometers?

- Yes, I can become whatever I Desire.

I will reveal it to you slowly, when the Time comes.

I do not only leave the imprint of my Trace 

through the Ink you are reading at this very Moment...

Wait and you shall See!

-My Soul!

- Thank you for your revelation!
