Not so much to heaven, not so much the land

 “God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,

Courage to change the things I can,

And wisdom to know the difference”

Balance, this prayer portrayed the importance of we balance our lives   maybe that's the word that since long ago humanity has been searching for, however without actually finding. Balance is vital to human relationships. When we adopt extremist positions any cause ceases to be won, in social or personal aspects.

Extremist positions happen when rationality gives in to dogmatism, ceases arguments and an idea becomes absolute, becomes an end in itself. I believe that when arguments and justifications are done, it is where the errors will become evident and what could be good, becomes its opposite.

Our own history shows us these questions, for example, how capitalism was born of a class that aimed to be inserted in a society to survive and ends up becoming extreme in supply and demand of products destroying an entire planet. Adolf Hitler aimed to rebuild Germany, make this country grow after being destroyed during the First World War, but adopting extremist positions he exterminated in mass Jewish and Polish. Other movement is the Taliban, also born of a revolt to Russia, that had taken their land and tax terror, but this movement adopts extremist positions and they manipulate their own people and impose terror worldwide

Another example, there was a serious attack against Paris in November, 13th. The attacks consisted of mass shootings, suicide bombings, explosions and use of hostages. In all, there were three separate explosions and six mass shootings. At least 137 people died (including the seven terrorists who perpetrated the attacks. ISIS Islamic State, claimed responsibility for the attacks. They were motivated by the Islamic state as a "retaliation" for France's role in the military intervention in Syria and Iraque. The attacks were compared in terror that occurred in France since the Second World War, for many years France had not seen a massacre like this.

Finally, I would like to wish you much peace and balance, because it’s necessary to accept others as they are. When we adopt extreme positions, we are disqualifying people with whom we interact. This happens in these examples that I named, where people acted extremist manner and was set back humanity. Inevitably, there will be a loss to both parties because in a relationship, there is no way for just one to win and the other lose, directly or indirectly, both parties win or both parties lose. That is what makes it unique, singular. It´s necessary more love in the world, it´s necessary more respect towards differences and for this you must have balance, as the title of my speech, not so much the heaven, not so much the land, but the balance among things.

Thank you
