They made us believe... nos hicieron creer


Nos hicieron creer que el " gran amor ", sólo sucede una vez, generalmente antes de los 30 años.

No nos contaron que el amor no es accionado, ni llega en un momento determinado.

Nos hicieron creer que cada uno de nosotros es la mitad de una naranja, y que la vida sólo tiene sentido cuando encontramos la otra mitad.

No nos contaron que ya nacemos enteros, que nadie en la vida merece cargar en las espaldas, la responsabilidad de otro.

Nos hicieron creer en una fórmula llamada " dos en uno " : dos personas pensando igual, actuando igual, que era eso lo que funcionaba.

No nos contaron que eso tiene un nombre: anulación. Que sólo siendo con personalidad propia, podremos tener una relación saludable.

Nos hicieron creer que el casamiento es obligatorio y que los deseos fuera de término, deben ser reprimidos.

Nos hicieron creer que los lindos y flacos son más amados.

Nos hicieron creer que sólo hay una fórmula para ser feliz, la misma para todos, y los que escapan de ella están condenados a la marginalidad.

No nos contaron que estas fórmulas son equivocadas, frustran a las personas, son alienantes, y que podemos intentar otras alternativas.

¡ Ah!, tampoco nos dijeron que nadie nos iba a decir todo esto... cada uno lo va a tener que descubrir solo. Y ahí, cuando estés muy enamorado de tí, vas a poder ser muy feliz y te vas a enamorar de alguien .

" Vivimos en un mundo donde nos escondemos para hacer el amor... aunque la violencia, se practica a plena luz del día "

JOHN LENNON

...in love with yourself first...

They made us believe that real love, the one that's strong, only happens once, more likely before your 30ths.

They never told us that love is not something that you can put in motion, neither has time schedule.

They made us believe that each one of us is the half of an orange, and that life only makes sense when you find that other half.

They did not tell us that we were born as whole, and that no-one in our lives deserve to carry on his back such responsibility of completing what is missing on us: we grow through life by ourselves. If we have a good company it's just more pleasant.

They made us believe in a formula "two in one": two people sharing the same line of thinking, same ideas, and that it is what works.

It's never been told that it has another name: invalidation, that only two individuals with their own personality is how you can have a healthy relationship. It has been made to believe that marriage is an obliged institution and that fantasies out of hour should be repressed.

They made us believe that the thin and beautiful are the ones who is more loved, that the ones that have little sex are boring, and the ones that has a lot of it are not trustful, and that will always have a old shoes to a crooked foot; what they forgot to tell us is that there are more crooked minds than feet.

They made us believe that there's one way formula to be happy, the same one to everybody, and the ones that escape from that are condemned to be delinquents.

We have never been told that those formulas go wrong, they get people frustrated, they are alienating, and that we can try other alternatives.

Oh! Also they did not tell us that no one will tell those things to us. Each and everyone of us will have to learn by ourselves.

And, when we get to the point that you are in love with yourself first, that's when you can fall in love with somebody. -
