The Return To Self
Should we remind ourselves everyday that one day we will no longer be in this world ? That we all will eventually return to the earth to where we belong? After all we are nothing but just a clump of clay? Would it matter then how you lived in this world ? Would it matter then how much money or richness you made? Would it matter then how many properties you own? All the physical wealth which you have painstakingly made cannot be brought to where you belong. How are you giving to make yourself remembered ? Or does it really matter? We compare our richness with others, we push ourselves to make more money. We compare our children with others' kids, we push our kids to work harder. We see people driving brand new vehicles, we want it too. We see people buying luxury condo, living lavishly, we want it too. Everything is just revolving physical, physical and physical wealth!!! Money is everywhere. Everything we touch and see is money. When are we going to start living a real life ? When are we going to realize we, each of us is an image of the One? We shall all return to Him one day. Why should we have hatred? Why should we have jealousy? We think so hard everyday. We think about ourselves and people every minute from the moment we rise up everyday till we sleep. We worry about our future. Our minds never stop working. We remember we should we pamper our bodies but we forget our souls. We forgot our souls needs rest too. We forgot we need to surrender to the One everyday as we shall return to Him when the day comes. Instead, we concentrate so much in our daily chores and focus endlessly into worrying about things we cannot control. We need to calm our inner soul. We need to provide enough rest to the soul everyday. Get a quiet moment everyday whereby we think nothing. Just nothing but feel the peace within while we seek the guidance from Him. We should be reminded everyday that what we need is a simple life not a complicated ones.
