Leave others aside. What about you? What do you blame yourself for? From there, the rest will be found. As long as this doesn't happen, the crisis will persist, decay will deepen, and instances of lawlessness will become more ferocious.

Do we have a soul? We do not understand ourselves. Being smart is one thing, understanding is another. Understanding is a step above intelligence and knowledge; it is a deeper sensitivity that relates to how much we step outside ourselves.

We pretend or think that we are very social, while deep down we have an emotional egocentrism that leads us to shipwrecks and depressions. At this moment of crisis, it is important to look at ourselves from the outside. What does “from the outside” mean? It means that instead of taking positions, we should understand. Thus, we will also remain true to ourselves and find balance.

On the contrary, we are reflected in our desires, meaning we do not look at ourselves anywhere. Is there a chance we might be found?
