Beyond The Looking Glass is the second book in the Unseen series, a story that came to me from the other side. A story where I thought I was just the narrator until I heard the Words of the Unseen.

This second story goes beyond time and place and mixes the long ago with the here and now. Because history keeps repeating, until we learn and do something about it.

Beyond The Looking Glass - Words of the Unseen - Chapter 122

Dear Reader, do you consider yourself the center of your universe?

Don´t be ashamed, you can tell me, although you don´t have to, as I know you do, or at least did.

As a kid, most of us do, we all feel like the sun, and the whole world revolves around us.

Then the future arrives and lives change, work, kids, spouses, for most of us, the world no longer revolves only around us. But we still see ourselves as the center of our universe.

When does that change, when do we see ourselves as part of that universe, an infinite place of which we are all part, without the need to be at the center?

The Fool walked into my life recently. It was quite a surprise, and all thanks to this guy, Schopenhauer. "I choose my peace over fear. I will stand in the shadow and let others shine, to only step out when it´s truly needed."

Actually, The Fool was there already, but I did not really take notice of his arrival until Schopenhauer shook me up.

This guy had another interesting point of view: "The first rule of survival is to see the world as it is, not as you want it to be."

Peace, my wish, but when I view the world, it makes no sense. When did humanity know peace?

This species has learned most by war and terror.
They evolved due to pain, not from love.

That sounds familiar. Are they more like me than I want to admit?

Do they, like me, have this need to stumble, to fall flat on their faces, and violently scrape their head on the tarmac to learn their lessons?

If that is the way, and why the refugio?

Why do I want to create a friendlier environment in which to absorb teachings?

A new order to restore the balance, because balance means stability, and stability brings peace?

If I see the world as it truly is, why would my mission be turning it into something I want it to be?

Because I have no need for survival? I am already at the point where my own survival is irrelevant. Not that I am a saint or anything, I had my fun in the sun for many years.
I have lived for me, but eventually, me is not what matters. At least not for me, it´s no longer enough, or maybe it never was. That is why I carried that hole I my soul fo so long.

Living for I, for EGO, does not bring fulfillment. But what then?

Can my true I, myb true self be Peace, or is that still a mission?

Who Am I?
Can I be an Archetype, or the evolution of one?

What comes to mind when I let that question float?

I am free, liberated.

*I drift through universal thought, ready to fulfill a mission, to awaken minds still wrapped in shadow. *

To bring peace, while my personal peace grows in solitude, in the ink of my writing, and in music that moves me without permission. *

I am patience, I am waiting, for I have always known my time will come.

Those words come to my mind, combined with my archetype of the reversed fool, can that be the answer to Quien Eres?

Do I need that many words?

I doubt, but I do not give up the search, not yet.

Instead, I agree with myself to let it simmer in my brainstew while I focus on the bigger picture.

What is next?

Next is another piece of beef that has been poached within my skull for a while now.

But this one seems to be done, over many months, it has grown from a hard, unbeatable muscle to a soft, succulent structure.

The Hanged Man could never move forward; that is why he evolved into the fool who puts peace above fear and will take the leap.

A conscious leap, not a naive one.

The time to move forward has arrived; get into the groove of life again, but this time with awakened trust.

I am no longer Maverick, no longer the lonely rebel.
Over time, I think Goose slipped into the Mix (for those who never saw the best 80s movie ever, go watch Top Gun before you continue reading).

I evolved and in movie archetypes, I became a powerful hybrid of reckless passion and inner steadiness, a character who leads from instinct and wisdom, takes bold risks, but with a sense of divine timing or purpose.

Breaks rules when necessary, but with foresight, not rebellion

An archetype that carries both the sword and the lantern.

The use of Archetypes to look at myself so far has been the best mirror, still, it´s only my perspective, then again, it´s proven to be my best answer to the question:

Quien Eres?

The Reversed Fool, The Grounded Maverick, an illuminated persona who leads by the sword and the lantern.

Last but not least, why does the question keep coming in Spanish?
