The Dark Zones of The light…

     In  these  troubled  times,  his  planet  was  in  war  because  The  Lord  of  Darkness  and  his  demons  had  claimed  their  new  territories  there.  These  territories  were  called  ‘The  Dark  Zones  of  The  Light,’  because  now  the  planet  of  The  Illumined  Ones  was  under  darkness.  But,  sooner  or  later,  he  managed  to  locate  them,  and,  most  specifically,  locate  the  targoblin  he’d  sworn  to  himself  he’d  kill.

     But,  just  before  entering  the  campsite  where  the  targoblin  slept,  his  wise  master  appeared  from  out  of  the  shadows  of  the  night  and  stopped  him.  “If  you  go  ahead  and  kill  this  creature  out  of  anger,  feeding  your  ego  for  revenge,  then  you  will  lose  yourself  and  your  future  reincarnations  will  become  miserable,”  he  said  to  then  young  Elradon.

     As  he  calmed  down,  as  his  anger  vanished  and  he  understood,  they  retired  to  a  safe  place.  If  that  night  Elradon  would’ve  slain  the  demon  out  of  revenge,  then  his  mind  would’ve  fallen  into  the  abyss  of  darkness;  and  so,  his  consciousness  would’ve  never  carried  memories  to  his  next  reincarnation.  

Book #3 in the epic series. Coming soon…


Hi. My name is Asael (Asa) Rodriguez. I write fiction and nonfiction. But mainly I am focusing on fantasy right now. My series BENJAMIN JONES. It is about a 12-year-old orphan boy who seeks to find out about the mysterious death of his indigenous parents, but also about himself. The stories are about self-discovery and magic.

Through creative expression.

So, here’s why everyone should choose to do something highly personal and creative, something that comes from you and that represents you and your values. I have chosen writing books. For me, writing and creating characters, worlds, ideas, experiences, is all about self-expression. It is about freeing myself from my personal burdens and difficulties appearing in life. But it’s also, and most importantly, about finding myself through my writing, through my creative expression.

What is finding myself mean?? It means that I get to stop my anxiety, my worry, my desires, my daily thoughts, and focus on my mental health, on my mind expansion as self-awareness. Because life is about learning about yourself in depth. So, expressing yourself through something personal and creative, like writing books, or a blog, or painting, or other crafts, helps you get in touch with your deepest emotions; and subconsciously your mind learns to relax and be more introspective (thinking clearly before acting impulsively).

Self-care: Self-esteem.

“The subconscious can play us against progress, and it can block us from becoming better. Low self-esteem is something which affects all our interactions in life, and it’s a defect running in our subconscious…

So, you may feel somewhat afraid to say the wrong thing, or intimidated around certain people, or unable to express yourself in the proper way. This might be low self-esteem. Have you wondered why that is…?? The origin of it. Explore it right now. See what’s causing it. Inquire into the content of your mind…

“You may carry good intentions, be the most caring person, even have great and profound feelings towards others; however, if you occupy your time with the wrong influence, then this could be the origin of your low-self-esteem or lack of confidence at some level. What do you do during your day…?? Is important that you are honest with yourself…

“Do you strengthen your mind properly?? Are you truly aware of what you watch?? I am not asking you if you enjoy it. I am not asking you if you feel you must watch it. I am not asking you if people you admire watch it. I am indeed asking you if what you watch is strengthening your mind and increasing your positive vibrations…” ~ I ALSWAYS LOVED YOU. Creatures of Eternal Love.

What is the point of life??

The way I see it, you must learn from others. If you judge others, then you’re missing the point. When you judge others, you imagine that they have your experiences and same ability to choose what you would choose; but this is almost never the case. We are all different. We have all been raised differently. Different habits. Different perspectives. The best one can do is learn from the mistakes and the perspectives of others. Because we are all different, for better or worse.

Focus on growing yourself, and on pushing yourself to be better. Don’t waste your energy and time on complaining and judging the behaviors of others. So many people complaining, getting angry, blaming others; and all their time is gone on this, while missing the point. The point is making yourself better. The point is becoming more and more self-aware. The point is looking inwardly and not outwardly. In life, we are born to discover ourselves as better human beings; and that can only be done if we look into ourselves, into our thinking, into our feeling, and then learn from all of it.

How do you better your life??

“…So, travel into your own mind, see your own absurdity and vainglory, study your daily behaviors and bring change to what must be changed. Do not deny, but observe as a daily practice. Be your own individual. Be wiser than you were yesterday…

“Stop seeking truth as an intellectual hobby, and transform yourself into truth by behaving truthfully. Do not think, but act. You must stand out from the herd. Be your own person…

“Because people will behave irrationally, and immorally, and cruelly, even when they know is wrong to do so; furthermore, they will do it just to escape their own suffering, dishonesty, their dark and anxious side…

“You will know people by their actions, and you know yourself by your actions. Enlightenment. Morality. Love. Truth. These are indeed actions. Not philosophies. Not thoughts. Not feelings. But actions.”

Self-discipline to happiness.

We are born to discover life, to discover happiness in life. It is in ourselves, but our minds need something to do, something to bring discipline to our lives; thus we can be focused and discover that happiness within ourselves. If we have no discipline in our lives, or if we have no self-discipline, then our minds get restless, frustrated in life; and then we start building self-pity, anger, anxiety.

So, the mind is just like a child. If a child is not given structure and discipline by his parents, then the child becomes spoiled, obnoxious, impulsive and obstinate; and even worse, he starts becoming a bully and annoying others. The mind then must have the structure needed to be more self-aware, which is to look inwardly.

If the mind seeks love and happiness in others, in money, in relationships, in society, then the same mind loses self-awareness, because it starts focusing outwardly and not inwardly. So, to stay and focus inwardly is extremely important to have goals. Having goals requires self-discipline, because you must focus daily on strengthening that goal or goals.

You must be patient and work little by little, learn everything you can while paying attention to the smallest details. This structures the mind. This strengthens the mind. This helps you become more self-aware. Self-awareness is looking within to finally discover that happiness.

Being authentic now.

It’s very important to always be yourself and not fall into the anxiety, the game, the struggle of trying to be liked by others. What is true here is that people who truly care about you will accept you for who you are, without you having to deny yourself and pretend to be someone you’re not just to please their egos.

Being lonely is always having to put on an act, to seek to be liked by others, to please others and neglect who you really are deep inside. When you try to be false and pretend just to be liked, then you lose self-awareness, then you lose respect and love for yourself.

This, in time and unbeknownst to you, leads to feelings of worthlessness and self-pity. So, be always honest with yourself, be authentic in your thoughts, feelings and behaviors. Do not let the crowd lead you, but you lead yourself.

Dreams of uniqueness.

Dreams, desires for better, high aspirations in life. This is required to have for any person to love his/her life. If the person lacks this, then all sorts of anxiety, self-hatred and fears swallow the mind entirely. And then we fall into depression, and into dark thoughts that change our whole perspective of ourselves and life.

This easily leads to thoughts of suicide as well. So, finding yourself and creating your purpose, at any age, is extremely important, vital even if you truly desire to be happy. But don’t wait for the right person to come along, the right financial times, the right situation to arise.

Seek to be an individual now, reach uniqueness, and let go of anything that makes you feel confused, inadequate, self-conscious and shy, and like you have to compromise yourself in any way to feel true joy. Seek to be free. If it doesn’t feel like absolute freedom, then is not love, and is definitely not true happiness.

Keep your dreams alive.

Parents mean well, most of the time; however, they can induce in the child their own ideas, beliefs, and ways to go about in life. This, even without the growing child’s knowledge, can really become a burden to the mind. The burden cements into addiction. Addiction even into illness. But the now adult cannot see it, because his programming has been set as the “normal” for him.

Stifling dreams. Creating beliefs and traditions. Patterns of overthinking and impulsive behaviors. Childhood can do this. Parents can do this. But life is not the way parents see it, because they have just their opinions and experiences. And you are different, it doesn’t matter what others say. A dead dream becomes easily a dead person inside. Make sure you become alive and aware of your dreams, of your ideas, of your own ways to see life; and thus leave the past taught to you behind.

It’s just a “small lie”…

Lies, deception, cheating, hiding the truth. Even if you call it “a small lie.” All this, besides being immoral and hurting others, builds a subconscious program. In time, it feels normal to lie, even a little. The mind takes your behavior and, without your consent, builds a place for it. This is a real, physiological place in your brain. And now is there. And without you being aware it transforms you.

It becomes a “normal behavior” for you. And once it becomes a normal for you, it slowly cements like an addiction. Of course, for you is not an addiction. For you is harmless, and your normal, and something which has no importance. This makes you lose self-awareness. This blinds you to your own corruption. This is the illusion you build for yourself.

Others can see this corrupted behavior in you, but because it has transformed into your own mental programming you do not see it as corruption. This is why is so important to become aware even of the smallest patterns of thoughts in your mind. Don’t just do things without thinking. Study your own mental programs carefully.
