Greetings, friends of the @holos-lotus community, this somewhat strange title has to do with initiative No. 21 of Esa Vida Nuestra, where you are invited again.

We are full of stories, when we want our mind wanders, travels through them, recreates them, assumes them as true or insists on making them concrete. Given the uncomfortable events that could occur during the day, we have a story to tell ourselves. Some of hope, others of fear, real or fictitious, learned from our ancestors or our own, these help us advance on the path of life, because our beliefs are fed from there.

We always have a story present, with them we teach our children, we interact with our partner, family or friends. We make promises to ourselves, we hold on to facts, we can even solve or create problems.

Are these stories so reliable as to prevent us from doing anything?

In this life of ours, we want to give you the opportunity to delve into those stories and find that basis that leads you to make decisions, some of them crazy. I knew someone who refused to eat fish when he had the flu because that was cold. I myself recently had a soursop fall from the tree, very large and beautiful, and it made me eat it, but I had the flu and I remembered a saying from before, when a person didn't take care of themselves, they would sarcastically suggest that they put an ice pack on their chest. and ate a soursop. This time I searched on the internet and I only found good things about this fruit, with a high content of vitamin C, ideal for the flu, so I didn't hesitate, I ate a piece of it, very delicious without any consequences.

The older ones would say: the problems will come out when time passes and you get old, because those are the stories that are told, but it turns out that I have already arrived and I am also full of them.

I can't stand organized parties: weddings, baptisms, fifteen years and the like, where the ladies take over a centerpiece and a man is crouched putting on a shoe. Those protocols and rituals are not my thing; but that's the story I write to myself. Will I be able to change it? Of course I do, because I'm the one who writes them.

For the sake of well-being and balance, everyone does their own thing, full of cabals or not. Here we could see how simple life is and that everyone is happy or mortified as they want or as they can.
In this initiative, with a little luck we will be able to see those fears, that each one invents, who doesn't get complicated with anything or who chose to be a nervous wreck. The stories we create for ourselves can set limits on the formation of the personality of those who depend on us.

A day that I do nothing is a day wasted, returning one and three times to see if I turned off the tap; go out into the street scared for fear of the underworld; eat or stop eating because of another fear; go or stop going, to a specific place; fulfill a ritual, among many others.

This is a therapeutic exercise that will show us more of ourselves, always to learn. It will be interesting to see from those stories that we tell ourselves, what are the beliefs that give rise to them, the origin of them, if they are good to apply or if we should change them: reflect on them, when they are limiting and when they catapult us to well-being.
