Some time ago, a man punished his 3-year-old daughter for wasting a roll of gold wrapping paper. Money was tight and he became infuriated when the child tried to decorate a box to put under the Christmas tree. Nevertheless, the little girl brought the gift to her father the next morning and said, “This is for you, Daddy.” He was embarrassed by his earlier overreaction, but his anger flared again when he found the box was empty. He yelled at her, “Don’t you know that when you give someone a present, there’s supposed to be something inside it?” The little girl looked up at him with tears in her eyes and said, ”Oh, Daddy, it is not empty. I blew kisses into the box. All for you”
The father was crushed. He put his arms around his little girl, and he begged for her forgiveness. It is told that the man kept that gold box for all the years of his life and whenever he was discouraged, he would take out an imaginary kiss and remember the love of the child who had put it there.

“Detrás de la aflicción se esconde la felicidad, y detrás la felicidad la aflicción. Donde brilla el sol también hay sombras; donde hay luz también hay oscuridad; donde hay nacimiento también hay muerte.

La liberación de todo consiste en no dejarse afectar por estas contradicciones.

Y el método para vencerlas no consiste en deshacerlas, sino en elevarse por encima de ellas y ser absolutamente libre de toda supeditación a ellas”.
