¿Qué nos ofrece la vida? ¿Hay que elegir un camino u otro o simplemente seguir la onda?
Hay preferencias, elecciones, alternativas y más adelante el “futuro.”
¿El futuro? No, no puede ser. El futuro no existe, sólo tenemos este momento. Este momento Astra anda girando, este momento Astra anda pensando, este momento Astra está contenta, este momento Astra está frustrada, este momento ella ha elegido su modo de ser, su buen humor o su mal humor. Este momento ha escogido cómo va a actuar. ¿No es así?
Pero los demás…los asteroides ruidosos por ejemplo, ¿qué tienen que ver con Astra, tan tranquila, tan elegante, tan fina, tan bella? ¿Por qué están en su vecindad, casi estorbando su órbita? Mejor, ¿qué tienen que enseñarle?
Mientras Astra pensaba que su vida era girar alrededor de su planeta y elevarlo por el resto de la eternidad, los asteroides estaban planeando algo bastante atrevido, bastante nuevo y bastante perjudicial.
Continuará.
What does life offer us? Should we choose one path or another or simply follow the road?
There are preferences, choices, alternatives and later on the “future.” The future? No, it can’t be. The future doesn’t exist, we only have this moment. This moment Astra is spinning, this moment Astra is thinking, this moment Astra is happy, this moment Astra is frustrated, this moment she has chosen her way to be, her good mood or bad mood. This moment she has chosen how she is going to act. Isn’t that so?
But the others…the rowdy asteroids for example, what do they have to do with Astra, so calm, so elegant, so fine, so beautiful? Why are they in her neighborhood, almost getting into her orbit? Better yet, what do they have to teach her?
While Astra was thinking that her life was about spinning around her planet and enhancing him for the rest of eternity, the asteroids were planning something quite daring, very cutting edge and quite disruptive.
To be continued.

Some Beautiful Thoughts
When I am frightened, will you reassure me?
When I'm uncertain, will you hold my hand?
Will you be strong for me? Sing to me quietly?
Will you share some of your stories with me?
If you will show me compassion, then I may learn to care as you do,
then I may learn to care.
When I am angry, will you still embrace me?
When I am thoughtless, will you understand?
Will you believe in me, stand by me willingly?
Will you share some of your questions with me?
If you will show me acceptance, then I may learn to give as you do,
then I may learn to give.
When I am troubled, will you listen to me?
When I am lonely, will you be my friend?
Will you be there for me, comfort me tenderly?
Will you share some of your feelings with me?
If you will show me commitment, then I may learn to love as you do,
then I may learn to love.

Una Pausa
"La comunicación va volando en el ciberespacio buscando donde caer, buscando hogar, buscando calor, buscando un poco de amor, no mucho, sólo un poco, pero el planeta va girando y todo sigue su onda y quién sabe que quiere decir nada, de hecho, lo más probable es que nada quiere decir nada y todo lo que veo es espejismo, ilusión y así es, así será y no importa realmente, lo que pensamos que es importante no vale ni una pizca, de veras y no es triste ni cómico...simplemente es y hay que aceptar...¿cuánto tiempo nos queda aquí? Es lo que quiero saber, ¿Cuánto tiempo más tenemos que jugar este juego? Ya estoy cansada, pero ni modo, me toca seguir, esperar qué me va a traer el universo, seguramente me trae algo, no tengo la menor idea pero tiene que ser algo, ¿verdad, amigos? Abro mi corazón y suelto todo el amor que tengo y se lo mando al mundo entero y así sé que somos uno...somos uno...somos uno."

El Planeta (12)/ The Planet (12)
Mientras Astra vivía en un estado de tranquilidad, todo estaba tranquilo. Su planeta seguía girando, Astra seguía girando alrededor de su planeta observando los cambios de día y noche, de frío y calor y de clima nublado y despejado.
Pero, ¿ahora qué? Astra se encontraba pensando en su futuro, bueno, en un futuro imaginario.
"Simplemente voy a girar sola el resto de mi existencia sin ninguna razón, sin hacer nada interesante, sin tener ninguna experiencia emocionante. ¿Eso es vida?"
Suspiró.
"Me falta algo", pensó, "pero no sé qué". Otra vez la inquietud.
Sus pensamientos ahora eran preguntas, preguntas sin respuestas.
"¿Qué pasará? ¿Por qué estoy aquí?"
Y así siguió otro millón de años.
Continuará.
As long as Astra lived in a state of peacefulness, everything was peaceful. Her planet kept on spinning, Astra kept on spinning around her planet observing the changes of day and night, of cold and warmth, of cloudy weather and clear weather.
But now what? Astra found herself thinking about her future, well, an imaginary future.
"I am simply going to spin alone the rest of my existence, with no reason, without doing anything interesting, without having any exciting experiences. That’s a life?"
She sighed.
"Something is missing", she thought, "but I don’t know what". Once again restlessness. Now her thoughts were questions, questions without answers.
"I wonder what will happen. Why am I here?"
And she continued like this for another million years.
To be continued.
