The Time to Choose How You Choose Your Time

“I don’t get it…” said a young Esper.
“We need to take the time to choose how we choose our time?”

Shala gently smiled and said:
“I know it sounds funny. But if you remember Atma, the Shape of Balance, it will make more sense.”

“The time you have in one day is limited. You can’t do it all, so you need to make choices.”

“But how are you going to make those choices?”

The young Esper said: “I need to think about it, right?”

“Exactly. It’s true that we all live only in the present, but to keep your StarDust in balance, how you spend your time each day is very important.”

“That’s why we need to take the time to think about how we’ll use it!”

And Shala concluded: “This is why healthy habits are so valuable. They help you make better choices—without even thinking about them!”

    The recognition of this principle had allowed Esperia to be rebuilt on fairer foundations for all. Remembering daily the presence of Shala, the Shape of Time, was a way for the Espers to remind themselves that life was ephemeral, allowing them to appreciate not only their own existence more intensely, but also the lives of

    “Try for a moment to imagine a world where prejudice exists for no one.” “In this world, differences of origin, base element, or sex do not influence our personal feelings in any way.” “A mutual respect, regardless of the individual, is then created naturally. Like the youngest ones who, not yet marked by society’s prejudices,

    The lesson of the day was dear to Faya, the Shape of Will, and was titled “Persevering After Failures.” Even though she had become the Great Element of Fire, and was admired for her fighting spirit and the strength of her inner fire, she often reminded the young Espers that behind every success there are

    The end of the Chaos War was the perfect opportunity to finally rebuild Esperia on solid foundations that had until now been ignored. Vati, the Form of Wisdom, was worried about how things would unfold, for it required envisioning the world in the long term. “Many Espers will resist making the necessary changes…” she thought.Indeed,

    The discussion of the day was about the importance of maintaining a balance between rights and duties. Vati, the Shape of Wisdom, reminded them:“For a long time, we did not know that using magic consumed a little of the Aether each time, the precious life source of our planet.” “Then it becomes a duty to
