Life before death...

Recently, I read a book, which was an eye opener for me. I felt like sharing a few dewdrops from it. Even if its not going to bring great changes in your life, it will definitely scratch your mind for few minutes. I generally like to read the interesting chapters of the book in the beginning and then go for the remaining chapters. As I was going thru the index of this book, I got struck with one topic which didn’t let my eyes go further down. The topic was “Life before death”. It just scratched my mind for few minutes and increased my interest to read that topic immediately.

As I was reading thru the lines, I felt the author was 100% correct in what he wanted to tell the people of this world. Generally, one interesting aspect of life which is usually debated is “What happens after death”. The author has seen this issue from a totally different viewpoint. The author questions back, which of the two, “life after death” or life before death”, is more important??? Naturally, the answer would be “life before death” is more important.

In today’s world, most of us are not living even in our present lives. We waste time on unwanted issues and spoiling others lives without caring about the precious nature of our life. For such persons, the question of ‘whether there is a life after death’ is meaningless because they are dead even in their lives before death. And if we really live well before death, perhaps, there will be no life after death. Thus the question of “life after death” is irrelevant.

Like many people have already compared life with mathematics, even I wish to follow their footsteps. Life is a “Book of Mathematics” written by the great author God Almighty. He has composed it in a very methodical and interesting way. For every chapter, he has given the theories and explainations in the beginning with solved examples followed by unsolved problems. The theories and explanations are the precious moments of our lives every second,which teaches us ample number of things as what to do and what not to do. The solved examples are our elders, family members, friends, relatives, collegues, every single person around us. They are the living examples from whom we get to know our life better as they must have crossed the same situations as we are in now. Some might be good examples while some might turn out to be bad, from whom we need to learn things which we shouldn’t follow in our lives. And then the unsolved problems which are given to us to solve with the help of the above said theories, explanations and solved examples. These are given to us to check whether we have understood the how the life has to be lived in the right way. God has thought us the concept of life and now its our wish to follow him and reach the correct solution or to stagnate in the same unsolved positions with our own distractions. The most important thing is, god will never give us any problem without a solution. At the end of the book, the solutions for each and every problem has already been printed. We shouldn’t expect others to solve our problems. If we do, then at the end we are the ones who will be losing the thrill of our life. So face each and every problem with courage and confidence, there are many good hearts around us to help us with their lending hands. Don’t hold the cruel hands and land up no where.

Life can be lived only once, if you live it right once is enough!!

Life isn’t about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself !!
