AXIS
DECEMBER 31
SUMMARY
In this dialogue with Matías, the nature of the axis in life and its relationship with freedom and the essence of being is explored. It is emphasized that the axis is not a fixed and immovable point but the center that propels mobility and the journey in existence. The search for the axis becomes an inner journey to discover one’s true essence and potential. It is highlighted that freedom is not found externally but internally, in the ability to be authentic and in harmony with oneself. The journey is compared to the movements of the Earth, emphasizing the importance of harnessing external forces for personal evolution. Ultimately, the idea that the journey never ends is celebrated, and each day is a new opportunity to explore, discover, and grow.
QUOTE
“The Axis is the beginning of the journey, it is the start of real movement, it is the only thing that can take you to your destination.”
