Question to a first thought...
- Have we ever stopped to think about the people who have no food to eat and no water to drink when we are sitting at the restaurants taking our own sweet time deciding on what to order?
- Have we ever stopped to think about the children at the orphanage who have no parents or family members when we slam the doors on our parents and complain about them?
- Have we ever stopped to think about the people who die in car crashes not because they were speeding their life away but because we tend to drive over the speed limit enjoying a short trilling ride?
- Have we ever stopped complaining about the clothes we have at home when other have none but mere rags?
- Have we ever stopped to think about how thankful we should be to be given a chance to wake up each day to live life to the fullest and in the right manner?
- Have you ever stopped a moment be it a second to just think about how we are blessed in our lives… a family, a glass of water, a bowl of rice, meat we don’t have to catch ourselves… a musical instrument at home when others…?
People out there don’t have even a grain of wheat to survive on… or a drop of water to quench their undying thirst… meat they get after a whole days' chase… music they hear are the voices of nature which we cover with our idea of music not appreciating the gift of God to us..
Things we have taken for granted, they are suffering in search of it… in need of it.
So what if we don’t have a car to drive in, when our work place or study area is just a train-stop away… So what if we have to fast a meal a day just to have a tiny inch of how they feel and giving our share to them..
The point of it all is…
The things we have right now… are they not enough? That is all I would like to ask... Are they not enough...? Is it just for now? Or It'll forever be lacking of something.. because if that is the case, we'd always be fighting in a good way for a good cause; yes. But we'd never feel satisfied and contented.. and to never feel that..?! It'd be terrible... really it would.
It is not wrong to work hard to have a better life…but the thing is..
It may be human nature that prefer luxury and the indulgences in the pampering of ourselves.. but we as humans have a heart, mind, soul, body, don't we?… and things that we are capable of beyond all other creatures… can we not learn to be satisfied and to remember how blessed we are? Even a lil puppy would know the difference of Sleeping on a soft pillow and a box at the side of the road…
What more we as man and people of the earth?
Think about what you have at this point in time..
It is not wrong to work hard to have a better life…but the thing is.. With this state in your life.. Are we happy with just enough?
