Think positively…
Think positively… Stay away from negative people… Vibrate at higher frequencies… Live your life happily and successfully! Most self-help books tell you that it’s all about you, that you have to change the way you think, act, and manifest and then you will have a great life. What if you are positive, though? What if you are self-loving, confident, and hard-working—but somehow the world around you has just gone out of control and become a big bully? What if there are no positive people around to raise your vibrations because everyone is conditioned by negativity and manipulated by fear? What if we are all being enslaved by those who can’t control their obsession for control and more?
Is it enough just try to stay positive then? If we are all collectively bullied, is it really possible to be happy individually?
Dear Esra,
I’ve just finished “Madness Overrated” and I can honestly say that it is one of the most lucid and enlightening books I’ve ever read (and as a seeker of truth I read a lot, and I mean A LOT of books, believe me).
Have you seen the animated short-film “In-Shadow” by Lubomir Arsov? If not, please don’t miss it, I’m sure you’ll love it. In many ways, this film is a visual depiction of your book and a perfect companion to it:

I left a small excerpt of “Madness Overrated” as a comment in vimeo.com, by the way:

Hello Jesús,
Thank you very much for your kind note. I appreciate your great comments on Madness Overrated and recommendations on other artwork. No I have not seen the film, In-Shadow, but it looks like a powerful animation. I look forward to watching it soon. It’s amazing how we all have similar feelings about this mad world, but such different ways of expressing them. It’s like Jazz… There is one melody, but we improvise and play our own version of the melody…
It’s great to be connected through that beautiful melody, called awareness, regardless how it’s played…
Cheers!
Esra
