Three-Legged Race

Do you know the concept of the three-legged race?

It is a race in which two people link their inner ankles together and run in unison. Thus, it is also a metaphor for two people working together to accomplish something.

Because each person runs on three legs, coordination is crucial, as being out of sync can lead to falls.

On Esperia, this idea of cooperation was often spoken of in the teachings delivered at the Great Library of Esperia.

As the number of individuals increases, the possibilities for dissonance greatly increase, and this is why keeping in mind that each of the Espers had to work together toward the common goal of peace and harmony for their shared planet, Esperia, was essential.

A three-legged race in which every Esper participates and which becomes a core way of thinking: respecting others and adapting to the inherent differences that everyone possesses.

    On Esperia too, health was often at the center of discussions, and for a good reason: seeing suffering is not something one wishes for, neither for oneself, nor for loved ones, nor for strangers, nor even for those who may have caused us harm. This last point may certainly lead to another debate, but a…

    Eklea, the Shape of Awareness, was giving a lesson today at the Great Library of Esperia. Rebuilding the civilization of the Espers would take time and require everyone’s efforts toward a goal understood and embraced by all. That was no small task, was it? Especially if one looked back at the events of the past,…

    The adult Espers from all around the world sometimes rediscover the little child they once were. During a reunion with a childhood friend. When they are captivated by the grandeur of the sky and its billions of constellations during a night beneath the stars. When the ebb and flow of the ocean waves sing them…

    Cha Cha, our dear little platypus who thought of himself as a philosopher, reflected on the difficulty of finding a balance between indulgence and strictness toward oneself. Too indulgent, and one lets oneself go, giving free rein to excuses and easily placing the blame on others, on the current situation, or even on the world…

    If the causes leading to this realization were many and varied, the result was undeniable: not all the Espers possessed the same level of consciousness. Taking the case of a single individual, their awareness of the world around them begins in childhood, with the education they receive from a very young age. As the years…
