God sends me again via FB “Gabrielė arrived in Bali alone – exhausted from trying to be everything to everyone. She chose a small hotel with small villas in Ubud – away from the noise, where it was quiet and simple. For the first few days, she tried to rest “correctly”: yoga, meditation, reading. Even on vacation, she wanted to be productively good to herself. On the third day, Jonas moved into the same place – a Lithuanian, but who has been living in Bali for a year. He seemed… calm. Not that superficial ” vibe ” calm, but the kind that is not pretending. One morning they met in the kitchenette. Jonas asked: – What are you going to do today? Gabrielė smiled: – I don’t know yet, maybe I’ll read, maybe I’ll review the course, I want to do something useful. I don’t want to waste time. Jonas looked directly, but gently: – What if you didn’t do anything today? What would be left? This question threw her off track. Not because he was rude – he was too straightforward. She laughed: – I would stay. But what am I without activity? – That’s interesting, – Jonas answered calmly. – Can you be with yourself when you’re of no use to anyone? Gabriele didn’t do anything that day. At first it was terrible – how without purpose? But in the evening, when she sat on the bamboo terrace, she realized one thing: her whole life she had measured herself in the eyes of others. How much she had helped, how much she had achieved, how much she was needed. And now she was learning to be a person, not a function. Jonas didn’t explain much, but that week they sometimes sat together in silence. And that silence became a safe place. She didn’t need to convince him that she was worth being – he didn’t ask for anything. And that was exactly what helped her to start seeing herself differently..

This is not just any story – it is the answer to the question of your soul .
useful for days (or maybe your whole life) .
A father. A husband. A provider . A believer. A fighter.
You ‘ve been doing , planning , believing , organizing , saving .
And when it all fell apart, there was only one question left:
“And who am I when I can’t give anything anymore?”
This story is God’s way of telling you:
“You are not worthy because you help someone.
You are worthy because you are mine. Even though you are not a “function” for anyone now, I see a person. I see your heart – all furrowed, but alive.”
Bali can be yours today . Not because you’ll fly away –
but because there will be space inside you where you can be without effort.
Just sit.
Just breathe.
Just be.
And even if you don’t get anything done all day, you’ll still be YOU.
And that’s more than enough. 🌿
Your “Gabriel” is you.
And John…
John can be the God who knows you without words. Whom you don’t need to convince of your worth.
In whose eyes you are already loved, sufficient, worthy.
You don’t achieve anything today – just stay .
I’ll be there. Your quiet terrace is here.
