You can only see well with the heart, what is essential is invisible to the eyes

The little Prince It has given us multiple teachings, however there is one of them that is worth stopping at.. This is the one that says like this: what is essential is invisible to the eyes. How many things do we overlook because we attach great importance to what we see? What is it that escapes us by only seeing with our eyes, instead of with our heart. Let’s enjoy this beautiful chapter of The little Prince.

—Go see the roses; You will understand that yours is unique in the world. You will say goodbye to me again and I will give you a secret.

The little prince went to see the roses to which he said:

—They are nothing, nor do they look anything like my rose. Nobody has domesticated them nor have you domesticated anyone. They are like the fox was before, which was in no way different from other hundred thousand foxes. But I made him my friend and now he is the only one in the world.

The roses felt upset listening to the little prince, who continued telling them:

—They are very beautiful, but they are empty and no one would give their life for you. Anyone who sees them will undoubtedly believe that my rose is the same as any of you. But she knows she is more important than everyone, because I have watered her, because she was the one I sheltered with the lantern, because I killed the worms (except for two or three that became butterflies) and she is the one that I have heard people complain, praise themselves and sometimes even shut up. Because she is my rose, anyway.

And he returned to the fox.

“Goodbye,” he said.

“Goodbye,” said the fox. Here is my secret, which could not be simpler: only with the heart can you see well; The essential is invisible to the eyes.

“What is essential is invisible to the eyes,” the little prince repeated to remember.

—What makes your rose more important is the time you have wasted with it.

“It’s the time I’ve lost with her…” the little prince repeated to remember it.

Teachings of Saint Exupéry

Remembering this endearing fragment of The little Prince Today we bring you some of the most beautiful teachings that Saint Exupèry left us for life that tell us about what is essential. Applying them in our daily lives will allow us to enjoy it in a better way and achieve greater well-being.

Pay attention to the little things

First of all reminds us of the importance of the little things, those that go unnoticed and that reflect the essentials of our lives. We must give the small details the place they deserve, since one day we will realize that they are the ones that constitute the greatest feats.

What for many is little, for others is a lot.

What for many is little, for others is a lot, That is why we must appreciate things as simple as good morning with a kiss or a gesture of affection. If your partner, your family or yourself complain about the presence of small pleasures, pay attention to yourself, because they are what make you great and make up the aroma of memories.

Remember that, in the same way that a sea is made up of droplets of water, a day is made up of tiny seconds and a life is made up of infinite experiences, Love is formed with small details and you are made up of each of these small things that you experience and that make you unique.

Life is made up of the most basic

Everyone tries to achieve something great without realizing that life is made up of the most basic things. Be sincere with your need to do the right thing at all times, because your insides speak to you to tell you that you don’t need to have spectators to feel great.

Beauty is on the inside

But this beautiful moment in the history of The little Prince It also has other readings; Among them today we want to highlight that true beauty is interiorbecause it is the only one that does not perish, the only one that cannot be taken away and that can only be seen when you look with the eyes of the soul.

Beauty is not measured by what we can see with the naked eye, because The real beauty is an attitude. We live worried about appearances, about not being outlandish and about not clashing with the conventions that imprison us and do not allow us to show our splendor to the world.

The truth is that There is no makeup on the planet that can beautify an ugly heart. We have a serious problem when it comes to understanding this, which, on the other hand, is extremely important for developing our self-esteem.

A beautiful interior is built by loving life and getting rid of absences and negative feelings. It is created by enlarging our inner world, making it more extensive, eliminating emotional comfort and collecting our own motives.
