Two letters can change everything. This first message in our new series explores the power of “If” — the thin line between fear and freedom, obligation and possibility.   We’re often taught to live under the weight of “must,” carrying expectations shaped by culture, religion, family, and fear. But “if” invites us into something different: curiosity, play, and co-creation.   This message weaves together the story of Aldea’s three-year journey of resilience, the spiritual and emotional power of living with open hands, and the courage to build without guarantees. It’s about shifting from control to trust, from obligation to love, and from rigidity to wonder.   As we step toward the future together, this is an invitation to experiment, to create, and to say yes to the unknown.   Quotes:   Anxiety is the dizziness of freedom. — Søren Kierkegaard You must love in such a way that the person you love feels free. — Thích Nhất Hạnh Our culture teaches us to seek meaning in accumulation, but the hunger is never satisfied because what we crave is connection, not consumption. — Gabor Maté Your task is not to foresee the future, but to enable it. — Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
