  One day I will play the accordion up in heaven, among the clouds. There, where the air has no weight, where sound does not hurt. I will sit within the soft whiteness, and my fingers — those trembling witnesses of earthly imperfection — will move smoothly, confidently, without fear. There my hand will not make mistakes from the neurological disorder I have , because in eternity there is no misfired impulse, no confused message between brain and muscle, no clash between will and body. There everything becomes pure intention, an endless flow of sound and light, a complete merging between what I want and what I can . I see myself holding the accordion — that strange instrument suspended somewhere between breath and prayer. Each opening of its folds is like inhaling the sky , each closing — exhaling the light . Perhaps this is the prayer I’ve always searched for. Not the one spoken aloud, but the one the body whispers when the mind gives up control. There, above, perfection is...

The rose

 The rose is often used as a symbol of love, beauty, and spirituality. However, the rose also has thorns, which can represent the challenges and difficulties that we encounter in life. In this context, the thorns of the rose can represent the need for healthy boundaries in our relationships with others, and the importance of saying no to protect ourselves from those who may take advantage of our kindness, generosity, and sincerity.

Setting healthy boundaries is an important aspect of emotional and spiritual well-being. It allows us to define what is and is not acceptable behavior from others, and to communicate our needs and expectations clearly. This can help to prevent us from being taken advantage of, or from being placed in situations that are emotionally or spiritually harmful to us.

Saying no is an important part of setting boundaries. It can be difficult to say no to others, especially if we have a tendency to put others' needs before our own. However, saying no is an important way to protect ourselves from those who may take advantage of our kindness, generosity, and sincerity.

When we say no, we are setting a boundary that communicates to others that we have limits and that we expect them to respect those limits. This can help to prevent us from being manipulated or exploited by those who may try to take advantage of our good nature.

Ultimately, protecting ourselves from tendentious abusers of our kindness, generosity, and sincerity requires a combination of healthy boundaries, clear communication, and the willingness to say no when necessary. By taking these steps, we can create a safe and healthy space for ourselves in our relationships with others, and avoid being taken advantage of or harmed by those who may not have our best interests at heart.
