“This story calls for a redefinition of the self, for an acquaintance and reconciliation with our inner child, who has so much to tell us if we let him!”, Vasiliki Gouli, dramatherapist, MA psychologist, BSc, member of the Association of Dramatherapists – Play Therapists of Greece
A few words from the author
Through this story we are called to carry out our innermost journey, in order to redefine ourselves. Our choice is not to be afraid, because fear is the fabric that we weave ourselves, because we do not want to experience failure, sadness, anguish, because we have been instilled as “perfect”. But who determines “perfect”? We simply have a moral duty to be the best version of ourselves. Life ceases to be interesting when you simply remain stuck in an inner world of your own, in an inner reality of your own. You miss the journey, the call to live beyond the mundane, remaining only in what you know. Let us grant ourselves permission to live the authentic life, to stand before the truth and to be present throughout the journey, without fear and shame. Only guided by love, first towards ourselves and then towards our fellow man.
But you decide! It’s just me! My dear… Have a nice trip to the beautiful and wondrous world that unfolds in front of you!
