The lowest common denominator in life is change, in the evolution of being, the universe and the existence of everything, not everything is fixed, or static, why do not we stop inventing parallel lives? And we open our eyes that everything can change and transform, that depends if we decide to choose the change of vision or perspective, when I achieve that I can take ownership of my reality.
In several simple and short stories I will show real life examples, in some cases they decided to let their life decide another and others woke up and took off the bandages that hindered their transformation, of course the characters can be fusions or naturally authentic, they will go from the most common, to the strangest situations.
Story I (Dear Agatha).
Agatha, 19 years old, beautiful with green eyes, with a deep look, sometimes lost and lonely, reckless and rebellious; On the way home from a day of school, he stops on the stairs near his residence, decides to light a cigarette, just thinks about spending another night in that broken house, with his parents together but very distant, his only interest in returning , a Little Sister, who had to protect from all that nefarious environment, decided to put an end to the agony and was about to enter his house; When she opens the door, she can only see the light of the kitchen, without the smell of the sweet home, she walks to her room, leaving her bag, decides to go for that reason to be there, a beautiful girl 5 year old, she lights Agatha's eyes , Samantha jumps when she sees her older sister enter her room and gives her a big hug, Agatha breathes deeply and hugs her sister, at that moment he listens in the room at the end of the hall, two people arguing
Once again the unhappy and dissatisfied parents, she turn up the TV volume to take care of the ears of their protégé, leave her sister watching her program and decide to try to hear the reason for the explosive reaction of her parents behind closed doors, she is not surprised when he listens to his mother crying asking for a divorce, at last Agatha said, then his breathing stopped when he heard his father saying, I'm leaving today, just at that moment he felt a lump in his throat but at the same time a great relief, that the demons in his house would no longer be present when their parents separated. I jump next to her sister and cry, I cry because of sadness, I cry of confusion, of insecurity and of a strange tranquility.
After a few minutes, Agatha hears a door nearby, decides to go see her mother sitting on the floor, is crying in front of the door of the house, does not know what to do, comes to hug her or leaves her alone, with her heart troubled He left, decided to go to his sister's room to enjoy that small and loving company, a few hours later, his mother called the two of them to the dining room, the three of them were there with only two plates of food, their mother coffee cup and the ashtray that accompanies it. With eyes without tears and a confused look explains the situation, Samantha enters an uncontrollable crying, but Agatha looks defiantly at her mother. Why are they separated? not enough for us? and mother answers, selfish! You do not see my suffering, you only care, where are you going to sleep? You have never lacked anything, besides that you are already big, you should go to work and keep yourself in the place of being a burden. Agatha looked at her calmly and said. you decided to live a miserable life and you want my sister and I to follow your steps.
He got up from the table and locked himself in his room, with tears in his eyes and a split heart between staying and clinging to his sister's love or embarking on a different path of independence. Months later she was judged and criticized by many, especially by relatives, but she did not care, it was a decision made. Agatha only felt remorse for her little Samantha, she could not see her, called her and apologize for having left her, but explain that in a few years I would understand her, her little sister's love was unconditional and I forgive her immediately. Agatha undertook a difficult path, perhaps unnecessary, or foolish for many ... Only she knew the hell that represented the house and being close to her mother, although her mother was never consciously evil, she was unhappy and could not help clinging to that emotion
What other options did Agatha have? Actually from my perspective I had many, but judging her would be of no use to me, she decided to change her destiny, good? Or bad? Only she knows it, but life puts us in situations where you have to make decisions, and only time will answer the question of whether you take the best option? For me it may not be so serious what he lived in that home, but when we go through the same thing, or put ourselves in his shoes we check the pain or the hardness of his heart, I do not even know if I forgive his parents, but not for cause the divorce , but for what they made him live every day when they were living together.
