A few days ago I heard a person say that his life had stopped. That he had spent years without finding a reason to move forward, that pain and suffering had become his day to day and so he spent a year being a body that wandered the earth, doing the same thing automatically and without thinking about anything else. Listening to his story, my mind kept remembering that phrase "my life stopped."

Very sincerely, respecting all opinions, positions and beliefs I can say with propriety that life does not stop. For life to stop, our physical being, which is made up of all our organs, bones, senses, skin where the brain is included as a muscle, would have to stop functioning in its totality. This physical being would have to be completely paralyzed and with it all our vital functions and thus be able to say that life has stopped. But, even if this were to happen, life would only stop for us in this physical being and if we think about it from the spiritual point of view (whatever your belief or not) we have a soul, a glow, a divine breath that connects us with the universe. Therefore, spiritual life would not stop either.

If we go a little deeper and take the side of philosophy, life is a continuum of experiences; it is a whole that is made possible from the moments and instants in which you have experienced things that make you feel immensely happy, as well as those that count as experiences that are not good at all. For philosophy, life translates into existence and this is completed in being and being in the right place at the right time. Life is measured by those instants where you abandon anguish, suffering and find well-being and harmony.

Life does not stop, although sometimes we have that feeling, I can tell you that everything continues, that even if we do not lock ourselves in the solitude of our home and avoid any contact with the rest of the beings that inhabit the planet; everything, absolutely everything, including ourselves would continue our vital process, that is to say, life itself.

This post is an opportunity to reflect, for each of us to have the opportunity to think well about those phrases we say, remember thought, word and action. Our thoughts become our expressions, in that which we say and then becomes reality. Our thoughts become the source of attraction of energy that either flows and turns us into beings of light or it can get stuck in negativity creating a dense atmosphere full of darkness from where we will have a hard time getting out.

Life does not stop, it is we who from time to time place around us great walls that do not allow us to see the beautiful that arises every day. In the midst of the worst situations, my dear readers, there is something good and beautiful that renews us and that is life. Never think that your life stops, because then you will be losing precious moments that are unique and will not return. Remember what Heraclitus said "a man cannot bathe twice in the same river, neither the man nor the river are the same".
