Human Being could have been the perfect creature on earth, capable of performing everything by himself. But unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on your point of views) there is one Universal Law Which state that: Perfection is not in this world. Just because of that law, he just cannot be perfect!!!

Perfection is far a too great power to be handle by a single creature, and can be dangerous if not handle carefully. This is why this creature had been cut equally, right from the beginning, into 2 independent parts. But as you would expect, each creature would now be only able to attain a maximum of 50 percent of this total power alone! This may explain the behavior for human being to be in considerable (some times desperate) search for their other half.

But what would replace those 50% of perfections? Maybe what we call imperfections! Those same imperfections that seems to be complement to the perfections in the other half who also contain imperfections complemented by our perfections.

I guess each one of us feel this incompleteness (even though it does not seem obvious) and are in search of our complement to attain completion. To bring together both 50 percent to make it 100. That maybe a way to finally live our life at 100 percent, and yes the secret of life is to share it with someone.

Some days before Christmas, I was making a reflection about Christmas. How the purpose changed from time to time in the mind of people. As I grew up, I could see that it became more and more focus on materials. Today when you talk about Christmas, the first thing that came into the mind of mostly everybody is “what gift are you going to get??”

What I wanted this year was something more special, a spiritual Christmas. Living a Christmas with the real spirit of mostly giving rather than receiving. For people that have never experienced it before, giving give you more joy than receiving.

The next day I received a mail from one of my friend, Brian. He was touched by an article in the newspaper about some women that will celebrate Christmas alone and with almost nothing to eat. He wanted to do something for them on the 25 of December. I said to myself that it was a reply to my prayers, so without hesitation I said yes.

On the 25 we were about 15 present. The ladies were very pleased to see us and they told us that they were touched by our action. I was feeling so glad to be present there to give them a little bit of my time. I have this marvelous feeling of feeling that my presence was so important. They make us visits their house which was still made with corrugated iron sheets. They were the only houses like that; their neighbors were all having some beautiful villa.

What I’ve learned from that journey is that you can possess everything you want, but if you have no one to share it with it is useless. The power of sharing is such a grace that we should cultivate
