You can love me now, just the way you are.
Above all love
A hidden inheritance
- of Francesco Arista and Antonella Molica
Argument
- → Remember that I love you, because this truth is your lifeline in the world.
- → The world is by nature fragile, temporary, constantly trying to delude and disappoint you, to convince you that you have its nature, that you are fragile, temporary, and you belong to it.
- → If you remember that I am alive, present, eternal and I love you completely, the world can no longer harm you.
- → The very physicality of your body collaborates with the deception of the world, and it is not easy for man to understand who he is and to whom he belongs.
- → Those who live these certainties know that they belong to me, to the truth, and not to the world, in an indestructible bond of mutual love.
- → To tempt the things of the world, or to hope that they will move the way you want them to, is still unsatisfactory because of their nature.
- → Every suffering calls you to return aware, to remember that every event in the world is empty, evanescent, non-existent, and we are real, eternal.
- → In this world, the immortal can delude himself into being temporary, but what is temporary can never be enough for the immortal.
- → A part of this process, the detection of one's contrast with the world, is aided by pain.
