THE BIG ORCHESTRA

Humanity is a great orchestra. Large, small, light, heavy instruments, with soft or loud sons. Just as in an orchestra each person has their specific instrument and score. Everyone knows what they have to do at the right moment so that harmony prevails and thus the various sounds are pleasant to the ear. The orchestra is the collective, the musicians the set of  individualities. There is a mutual dependence, and for the common benefit it is essential to have equipped oneself with the skills to exercise the role assigned to develop.      In an orchestra everyone plays their role thinking about the group, and the talent acquired allows us to achieve the purpose in whatever is played at any given moment. Transferred to the everyday worldly sphere, when the approaches and objectives are based on selfish personal interests, distancing themselves from the appropiate fit in the social aspect, that is when conflicts begin that ultimately harm both parties. The orchestra is a good reference for we should proceed, what we should want and how we should act to win together.                                                                                                                                                  Selfishness and ignorance are the hindering elements, for the individual himself and those who are somehow affected by the harmful procedures. The worst thing is that we do not tune or know how to play the instrument intended for us, hence all the miseries, shortcomings and poverty derived from incorrect behavior.
