Experience the inner strength in the context of a change of attitude, using the realities of the present.

At the crack of dawn, Cosette started laughing, talking and singing. The children, same as the birds, sung their morning song. She who had never known tenderness and affection, had engaged in a new life.

Jean Valjean saw that she never left during the day. Each evening, when it got dark outside, he went for a walk for an hour or two, sometimes alone but oftentimes together with Cosette, on the side-alleys of the most deserted avenues and entered churches, during nightfall. He walked holding her hand and telling her loving words. Cosette was very happy.

He started educating her. Sometimes, when having Cosette break words into syllables, he remembered that, in prison, he learned to read with the intention of doing evil. And these intentions now changed into the desire of educating a child. And then, the old convict smiled, with an angelic wandering smile.

To educate her and let her play – to this had all Jean Valjean’s life come down to. He watched for hours as she dressed her doll and listened to her chirping. Henceforth life seemed worth living, people seemed to him good and just. In his mind, he no longer chided anyone for anything. He could discern a future, as a parent, brightened by Cosette as by a light spell.

Can you process past experiences and then save them in a context of permissiveness, without becoming a slave to personal affirmation tendencies?

It is so costly to know yourself, to penetrate within yourself, deep within the heard that trembles, fears, shudders with every lash of life’s whip, at every breeze of a possible change, in search of a miracle beyond your meaning as a man to the rest of the world. And to remain that which even the divine laws, gathered in the form of small joys that we give to one another, entails them without halt throughout the course of life.

What brings you to the moment of truth against yourself, at a point in which inner change becomes possible, turning into reality the activation of that clause of leadership which restricts or cancels your right of entering the lives of others, is that moment of the present that processes past experiences and then saves them into a different context, one of permissiveness and moral values. Especially when freedom of consciousness is not buried by the benefit of that cold and uncomfortable "sponsor", called selfishness.

Permissiveness is the gift of the intellectual man to manifest himself with a special sensitivity to the context that generated his emotional support and the soul’s satisfaction, in which there is an impulse to do new and valuable things. It is a predisposition that makes man more vulnerable to some outside pressures or suggestions, especially to the effects of changes stemming from negative experiences.

A man who tastes the fruits of permissiveness relinquishes your personal affirmation tendencies. Instinctively, he no longer accepts the role of a leader who does not accept compromises because it is caused by the attitude of the soul in which he seeks to seize new mental elements in the light circle of consciousness. The interest waking him is only conditioned by the present circumstances, it is no longer a distant interest, conditioned by future provisions.

Do you have the power to remodel the events of your life on a more "premium" content, from a cause that removes the character and nature of the facts whose importance lies precisely in independence from a broad set of manifestations in response to an emotional stimulus?

All events in your life are branded by a mature heart and mind, reshaped into a more "premium" and exclusive content, more or less stable, in the tumultuous expectations that intersect differently, transformed into little clouds that later disappear somewhere high up. Leaving you alone with whatever you will find on your life’s journey, with yourself, with the feeling that you can be more than a leader. That you can be a better man.

Feelings that move to the center of your being, given that they have nothing to do with what you expect, are based on the experience of a reality that constantly haunts you. They are mashed together from that imponderable alloy with which all the great daring people of the world are endowed with: kindness, care and responsibility. And these three main "brands" of the leader have as sole "parent" self-consciousness.

This top feeling, close to that simplicity of the grand which fills the personality and enriches it with every throb of time, performs a function of auto-suggestion and appreciation, ineffably dominated by the peaks of the highest joy of being someone else, completely different from how you were.

But this feeling also carries out the function of directing attention towards a new palette of trends in the position of being a leader. The connecting link between who you were, who you are and who will be is given by experiencing new situations in the context of the change of attitude determined by higher feelings.

Remodeling the happenings of your life on a more "premium" content means embodying your spirit to achieve a desired result, even when the means that inspire you with the pleasure of being at a great height is not being used as a substitute for a heroic deed.

Your true value is not measured by the heroic deeds committed, but by the heroism of assuming the condition of a being that lives in the joy of expanding the warmth of loving gentleness over those who make it more hopeful.

The Future Brightened by a Light Spell signifies improving the means of action that occur parallel to the development of higher feelings and awareness of what you want to be and mean to all those whom you lead.
