"Pros-pe-ri-ty!"

"Right! Abundance is the messenger of prosperity. When abundance arrives at our lives, it doesn't come only to satisfy our desires, but especially to make us desire more!"

"More?"

"Much, much more! Desire is the great messenger. Stop desiring is the same as shutting up."

"So I should desire abundance?"

"Of course not!" Bruce bent, almost giving her a karate blow. "Do not make that mistake! We end up becoming that which we desire. See yourself in abundance, but do not mistake yourself for it. Abundance does not listen, speak or see, and doesn't even feel itself."

"So..."

"It's prosperity you should desire! And never stop talking to it, because when we shut up before prosperity, it shuts up before us, and when that happens, abundance becomes waste; and waste, scarcity."

A silence manifested so that she could think about it.

"Acknowledge your young spirit, it doesn't grow old in time." Bruce resumed talking, having new insights. "Don't ignore your talents; never allow prosperity to shut up in your life. Where prosperity doesn't speak, vitality grows old, health gets sick and happiness saddens."

Bruce then started crying. A leaf detached from the tree and fell in front of her.

"Why are you crying?"

"It's so sad to see happiness sad!", he said, sobbing.

"Don't be sad. I'll cry too..."

"Promise you won't be sad anymore?"

"Promise."

"You really do?"

"I do!"

"Has any leaf fallen near you?"

"Yes."

"Read what is written. I want to know too..."

She took the leaf and read:
"'You cannot look for prosperity, it is already in you. It's not about searching, but meeting. For abundance to arrive at your life, you just need to talk to prosperity'"

She kept the leaf, preparing to go down.

"No, don't go", he asked. "Let's keep talking..."
