The intellect will not solve our problems, nor will it feed the soul

The intellect will not solve our problems, nor will it feed the soul with the essence of eternal life;
we often lose ourselves in the whirlwind of an extraordinary world that we do not truly see.
The leaves dancing in the mysterious wind remain unseen, and the grass untouched by our hands,
for we do not feel the quality of its being; we get lost in sterile discussions and cold examinations,
when the essential thing is to feel life deeply, not to lose ourselves in intellectual branches.
The intellect is not the path to true understanding, for it is limited by our conditioning;
it can reason, analyze, draw conclusions, but it cannot reach pure and unaltered sensitivity,
which frees us from fields of fear and anxiety, offering us true freedom.
We spend years cultivating the intellect, arguing, fighting, forgetting to simply be human,
and this wonderful and rich earth is ours, regardless of borders and provincialism.
Unfortunately, we have divided it through our pettiness, seeking security and better jobs,
playing political games that make us forget we are all part of the same cosmic dance.
But sensitivity can bring us back to the essence, to the simple joy of being and living;
this earth is not just of one place or another, but ours, all of ours, a profound truth,
offering us the chance to live in harmony with nature and ourselves, in an eternal story.
