Imagine that one day you about a person providing the answers to your problems, but you have to give everything you have, get rid of what you think and your warranty is something that seems little.
It is common in our day to day people come to us to offer villas and castles, but you must give everything or offer to change something that is unique and hard to get.
What keeps you alive, what makes you wake up in the morning, and maybe it's not so important to you, it is only because others tell you so, that's important.
No, I never read the story popularly known as The Beanstalk, (beans, so we say in Venezuela) but I saw many films, versions of this story.
For many, their moral is based on something of everyday life, but with different characters and other situations, their argument is the same; or not believing in something so strongly with little or sometimes determines success in life, happiness and even life itself.
Sometimes it is normal to feel like giving everything for beans, hoping that magically grow the next day.
Thus belief becomes stronger and that is called faith.
If something is true, back to the story the cow, is that to grow what feeds us, while we limited press sometimes can and is very safe, I die at any time, that is just, I think that in the story come to realize that the cow no longer gives milk and is old, do not know how long it will last, but that is alive can make sense or represent an opportunity for life, a new life.
Cow eventually dies, but in the case of the "Beans" (Beans) if planted, cared for, watered, over time it can bear fruit, time makes it stronger, and from a point of view mercantilist can generate income and wealth that a possible Giant Ogre who can snatch, to me that would be fear, evil or people who surrender and allow themselves.
In that sense riches can fall from the sky, but we receive it but not accept them as something temporary and part of life, you may be lost or may lose.
At some point I felt with Jack, taking a path, deciding whether or not to sell the cow, and this song, Hillsong United, called Oceans (FEAT WHERE MAY FAIL) helped me better understand what was happening.
His resemblance to Holocene Bon Iver sound, loved it, especially this acoustic version, beyond Christianity and its effective conversion into me through music, speaks of faith. We all know that when walking in the water can fall and keep walking we know we can die, and the journey of life, the ocean and us.
That's the end for us, the end of our life is the end of our existence, but their word opens up a world of possibilities to walk on the muddy, open ocean, leaving the suitcase in the world and leaving more space for soul.
