The Art of Resilience

beatrizesmer

In the grand theater of life, we are all performers, each playing our own part. Yet, there are those who lurk in the shadows, waiting for a moment of weakness, a slip, a fall. They are the naysayers, the doubters, the ones who revel in the struggles of others. But remember, you are the master of your own narrative. Even when the world weighs heavy on your shoulders, when the struggles seem insurmountable, you must wear a mask of positivity. Not for the sake of deceiving others, but to protect your own spirit from the corrosive whispers of negativity. You … Continue reading The Art of Resilience

The Covenant with the Earth

beatrizesmer

A nation stands upon the soil as a child upon the shoulders of a giant. The soil, rich and teeming with life, is the foundation upon which civilizations are built, the canvas upon which history is painted. Yet, when a nation turns against its own soil, it sows the seeds of its own demise. It is a self-inflicted wound, a betrayal of the very ground that sustains it. Forests, the majestic lungs of our land, breathe life into our world. They stand as silent sentinels, purifying the air with each rustling leaf and each whispered breeze. They are the alchemists … Continue reading The Covenant with the Earth

It is not easy!

beatrizesmer

Life, in its rawest form, is a tapestry woven with threads of trials and triumphs. It’s not easy, this intricate dance of existence. No, it’s a relentless ballet, where each step is earned, not given. Simplicity is a myth, a siren’s call that leads only to the shores of complacency. For nothing of value comes without its price—no joy without sacrifice, no victory without scraped knees and hearts worn thin. In this grand narrative, there are no scripted fairy tales, no predestined heroes to save the day. Instead, there are people—flesh and blood, with dreams as vast as the sky … Continue reading It is not easy!

Yearning for My 30s

beatrizesmer

I find myself yearning for the days of yore, for the vigor of my 30s, when the world seemed full of possibilities, ripe for change. It was a time when my heart was ablaze with the fire of ambition, and my arms strong enough to bear the weight of dreams. I long for that relentless drive, that insatiable desire to sculpt the very essence of the world, to leave an indelible mark upon the sands of time. I wish to recapture that fearless spirit, to stand once again tall against the gales of doubt, unflinching in the face of adversity. … Continue reading Yearning for My 30s

Embracing Life’s Journey

beatrizesmer

In the quietude of my darkest hours, let me be the mirror that unwaveringly reflects the depths of my soul, and the echo that resounds with the truths I’ve whispered to the night. As the world slumbers, teach me the art of self-acceptance, to find peace in the liminal space where seeds of hope gestate and await the harvest of tomorrow. Grant me the gift of days yet to dawn, where I may weave threads of compassion missed in today’s tapestry, mending the fabric of a heart that faltered in its purpose. Confront me with the visage of my own … Continue reading Embracing Life’s Journey

Transient Echoes

beatrizesmer

In this brief existence, we are but fleeting echoes—foreigners in a cosmic transience. Our souls, like delicate particles of stardust, traverse the boundless void. Imagine: a speck of dust suspended in the sunbeam of eternity. We drift, unanchored, through epochs and eras, our essence woven into the fabric of time. Each heartbeat resonates with the pulse of forgotten constellations. This world, once vibrant and resplendent, now wanes—a fading ember in the cosmic hearth. The symphony of life falters, notes dissolving into silence. We, too, are part of this unraveling—a minuscule fragment in the grand unraveling. Yet, within our insignificance lies … Continue reading Transient Echoes

The Mosaic of the Misguided

beatrizesmer

In the gallery of my life, I once displayed a mosaic, crafted with pieces of my essence. Each fragment was a chapter, a melody, a whisper of my soul. They were the right pieces—genuine, pure, and full of promise. But as fate would have it, they fell into the wrong hands. These hands, like careless curators, mishandled the treasures I offered. They took the laughter and returned to silence, accepted trust, and repaid it with betrayal. The right pieces of me, once vibrant and hopeful, were tarnished by their touch. I watched as my mosaic became a jigsaw, with pieces … Continue reading The Mosaic of the Misguided

The Hidden Truths Within Silence

beatrizesmer

In the quiet corridors of our innermost selves, we often tread softly, afraid to awaken the truths that slumber in silence. These truths, veiled in the shadows of unspoken thoughts, are the purest essence of our being, yet they remain concealed behind a tapestry of reticence. We choose not to voice them, not to acknowledge their reflection in the mirror, for fear that their revelation might shatter the image we’ve so carefully constructed. Pride, that cunning architect, builds fortresses around our vulnerabilities, convincing us that to ignore a problem is to erase it from existence. But like a persistent whisper … Continue reading The Hidden Truths Within Silence

To Little Eyes of the Forest

beatrizesmer

In the heart of verdant whispers, where the great rivers flow, Dwells the soul of the forest, in the children’s eyes, it glows. With feet bare upon the earth, their laughter rings in tune, To the parrot’s vibrant chorus, ‘neath the watchful Amazon moon. Tiny hands, like leaves, reach out, to the sky so vast and blue, Grasping dreams of peace and harmony, in the morning’s dew. They dance with the spirits of the trees, in a silent, sacred ballet, Wearing crowns of orchids wild, in the break of day. Beaded bracelets jingle softly, anklets sing of ancient lore, Each … Continue reading To Little Eyes of the Forest

Mirror

beatrizesmer

I have been both the weaver and the thread, spun through the loom of chaos and cosmos. I have tasted the gods, their ambrosia bitter on my tongue, and danced wild and unhinged, a dervish whirling in the ecstasy of oblivion. I have doused myself in liquor, the elixir of forgetfulness, and ran naked down the street, shedding the shroud of conformity with every liberated step. I have known the thrill of theft, the adrenaline of being stolen from, the shattering and the being shattered. In the crucible of experience, I have witnessed the birth and death of the universe … Continue reading Mirror
