Freedom Beyond Money - A Psychoanalytic Reflection

  The hour when shadows lose their sharpness and turn into soft, bleeding stains upon the old parquet floor is the time when words begin to carry a different weight. I sit in the twilight of the room, which feels wider than it actually is—perhaps because there is too much space in it for the things that never happened—and in my mind echo the words someone tossed out today like an old, worn-out coin: "Money may be gone, but at least we are free." This phrase, often used as a shield against poverty or a bitter consolation for missed opportunities, suddenly struck me not as an excuse, but as a profound, almost mystical diagnosis of the human condition. As I watched the dust motes dancing in the final beam of light, I asked myself what this "lack" we call pennilessness actually means, and how it transforms into the "presence" we call freedom.

I stopped looking for the light. Decided to become it instead

 "I stopped looking for the light. Decided to become it instead." These words speak to a powerful shift in mindset, from one of passive searching to active creation.

When we are searching for something outside of ourselves, whether it be #love, #happiness, #success, or even #enlightenment, we can feel as if we are constantly chasing after something that is just out of reach. We may find ourselves feeling #frustrated, #disappointed, and even #hopeless.

But what if we could turn that search inward, and realize that we have the #power to create the very thing we are seeking? What if we could become the light we have been searching for?

This #shiftinperspective requires a #willingness to take #responsibility for our own lives and our own happiness. It requires us to stop looking for #externalvalidation or #approval and instead to cultivate a deep sense of #selfworth and #selflove.

When we become the #light, we radiate positivity, love, and #compassion. We #inspire others to do the same and create a ripple effect of positivity in the world. By choosing to embody the qualities we wish to see in the world, we become a force for #change and #transformation.

So, if you find yourself feeling lost or searching for something outside of yourself, remember that the light you seek is within you. It is up to you to cultivate it, nurture it, and share it with the world. Choose to become the light and watch as your life and the world around you transforms.
