There is a bitter truth in this quotation. I always wondered how heaven would be like. The religions describe heaven as a magical place which everybody enjoying themselves forever and ever until the end of times which is never apparently!
In this life, people enjoy small amount of relief between long agonies. Fun and interesting stuff are precious because most of the time people are bored and suffering. Think about a place filled with all the interesting stuff you could ever imagine, would they still seems interesting if you could play with them forever and ever? The only reason which makes things interesting is that they are rare, nobody else has it or it is too hard to get. In heaven everybody can have anything they want.
Heaven is boring … I don’t understand why people are so eager to get the heaven anyways. Suppose people preferred to be bored than burned in hell. But when you think about it, being bored until the end of time is not much different from burning either. It’s another form of torture So it is hell anyway.
If there is no heaven, there is no hell either.
It is all a lie. People do all the things which they think are good to get to heaven. But when you look closely they are just a fool running toward a mirage.
A lot of people believe in soul mates. Well I think it is safe to say everybody in some point has a friend and if they were lucky enough those friends become their close friends and eventually their mates. But soul mate is more than just that. Seems it is like a magical or perhaps spiritual bond between two people, evidently among opposite sex, which glue them together forever and ever until the end of time. If you sensed the sarcasm in my argument, you sensed correct. As much as I do want to believe that there is a soul mate out there waiting for me, I cant help thinking the whole story is some sort of fairy tale which is designed to help youngster go to sleep and dream about the brighter future in the rough times. Really that is what it is. Statistically the chance of you finding your soul mate, if there is one, is so slim that it is easier to not look for it. Beside if there is a soul mate out there let him/her find you after all it is YOUR soul mate. The reason I talked about soul mate is that we as human tend to hope that future life is going to be easer that what it is now which is not true. Future is going to be as crappy and stupid as present. It would not going to get better folks, don’t wish for it. What you can do is first accept that life is full of lies and crap then try to get used to it. Perhaps in time if you don’t day dream all the time, your mind would find the way to ease thing for you a bit. But it is assured that life certainly not gonna get sweeter in our life time anyways, so WEAK UP, there is no soul mate, go find your mate and try to build your life with him/her. You can call me Mr. Negative but you all know I am right.
There is a saying:
"Success is never so sweet as when it accompanied by the failure of a friend."1
Horrible saying but deep in its roots there is a bitter truth. We as a human like that. It gave us joy and feel superior over our best friends in their worst time. This is a quality we all share. After millennia of evolution, human learned to set some rules in his life and divide his actions in to good and evil. But somewhere along the way we forgot who we are. We forgot we are a being derived with selfishness. We are alive because of that egoism in our life. We very well try to hide it bit we all know it’s in there. Deep down we haven’t yet evolved. We just change our skins.
It is my belief that in order for human to evolve, they ought to embrace their selfishness. Only by embracing it that we can truly understand ourselves and in that process we get to next level. The higher path.
He pushed the chair a bit closer to his son. It was about time, time for the talk. He stare at the ground for a couple of second, he was trying to imagine how his son was thinking right now. Maybe he shouldn’t talk to him. Perhaps he was better of with out his advice. Then he remembered how every parent would do in this situation, they don’t talk. He didn’t want to be like other parents. In fact he didn’t want to be like anybody, and he wasn’t. ‘Son’ he began, ‘you may remember that by now everybody told you more friend you have, the better off you going to be. Whoever you chose as a friend will change your life for better of worst.’ His son was nodding along but he could see the confusion in his son’s eyes. ‘Now you rich a certain level that I can let you in a little secret about life. A hidden and ugly secret. I have lived for around forty years and in that time I have done everything for my friends. But what I realized is that even the most liberal of your friends will impose in you life. They try to influence on your life and try to change the course of your life as they please. They won’t give you your free choice when it comes to their interests. I guess what I’m trying to say is that friends are not as great as they given credits.’ He stopped for a while. He thought either he destroyed his son’s life or given him an advantage which will serve him good in his life. ‘I don’t say don’t have friends, but I’ll tell you don’t change your life because of them.’ He continued. ‘The fact is they have to change rather than you.’ Then he looked deep inside his son’s confused eyes. He could sense the conflict inside his son’s mind. Perhaps the confusion was the best he could hope for in the first initiative. He took his son’s right hand with his left hand and told him: ‘your best friend will betray, sell, break your heart and leave you. It will happen sooner or later but the trick is you shouldn’t think it is an odd event. Now that you know it will happen in that time, you may feel pain and sorrow but you won’t be paralyzed. Remember the worse thing about friend betrayal is that they most likely do it because they love you. This thing will put you in a real dilemma, should you forgive them or hate them forever. This is what you have to figure it out by yourselves.’ Then he got up turn his face from his son’s face and left the room. Then there was a young man, a sad truth and an empty room.
You hear this sentence before, in song’s lyrics, in speeches and it made your mind wonders, what really makes a man, a man?Is it what he has done in his life? Is it the choices he made? Is it the life he lived? Or is it the way he ends his life? I think it has to be just more than that. Of course we are what we do, or better to say perhaps we do what we are. If it is so, you should be a man to be a man. Simple. Just be one, choices are not simple. I am not talking about just those choice we make every now and then which change our life, I am talking about those choices we make and change others life. We have to consider that when we do things it has some effect on other people. Still sometimes my mind wonders why we should feel good when people engage us as a significant figure, when we really know what we are. Why we feel superior when we know just some simple choice, perhaps some luck on the way with some proper support from others made what we are? How could we don’t feel ashamed when we know everybody can do what we did? You may quote “it is not true! Everybody is unique in its own way.” Although I don’t disagree, but we have to implicate the element of environment and the time we made those choices which make us unique. Think about it. Why we want to be The MAN?
Nothing is special about me except that I believe, in the near future, I would change the faith of the humanity! It's alright with me to do though; ask those whom their lives are going to be depended on me. Kidding but I believe there are two types of people living in this planet we called Earth: 1- Those who think they are significant. 2- Those who are significant.
The question is to which group do you belong?
