Seeing through the windows of life

Life is about how we live the life. Some people they are just alive, but are not really living the life. Why do I say so. Because they have no their own life. Their life are programmed by other people and existing systems. They have not much choice in their life. And they cannot do much things they like in life.

There is a saying.

" When we are young, we have energy and time but less money. When we are adult, we have much energy and money, but less time. And when we are old, we have much time and money, but less energy."

This is actually quite simple rule of life. Yet many people fall into this situation. Why, because they do not know how to manage their life.

For me, life is something that we can create. Different people have different life. Their lifestyle, experience, journey, achievements, failures and so on. And in another way around, all these things will shape their life and make them who they are today.

So, manage our life wisely.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Wise people always say that it is not important what happen to us, but it is important what happen in us.

Happen to vs happen in.

Very big point here.

In life, many things we cannot control. Only God knows what is happening in future. When something is written to be happened, does not matter how hard we try to avoid or beware about it, it will happen somehow.

Some things that happened in our life give a small impact on our life, but some are big. That is why it is very important to know how to see the happening correctly . To see things happen in our life from positive side is very important. But many people cannot do this.

I remember a book written by a guy, I forgot the title, something related to '…soup…..'. The book is about the story of people that are surviving against cancer. The book is very interesting. 

It tells us how these people keep being positive all the time even though they are going through a very hard days and have not much time to enjoy the life. However, they still able to smile happily.

A character of people - Big heart people.

But there is another character of people which is totally different. They are just easily given up even the difficulties are very small. People with small heart.

Many things happen in our life. Some good and some bad. Good thing is not absolutely good. Same goes to bad happening (if we classify it as bad). Not necessarily it is really bad. It is about how we see it. Even though we cannot deny they reality of the happening but then we can choose either we want to react to it positively or negatively.

Reacting positively or negatively for sure cannot change the reality. But it changes the life.

For example, the cancer. We cannot change the fact that we are having cancer (may God protect us). Does not matter how we see the fact. Because fact is fact.

But for sure, our reactions do effect ourselves. It will change who we are going to be. Either positive people or negative people.

Taking the fact with full of miserable and sadness, do not put hope in life, thinking that the life has no more future, keep depressing, being alone all the time, give self no chance to enjoy the rest of life and so on and so forth, is making no difference at all. The one who will be affected is no else except we ourselves. We will be somebody that has no self-value and just a poor life decoration to others.

But in another side, they are people that are taking the fact differently. They know that they are having cancer and they know that they cannot change the fact, but they take the thing positively. They spend the available time to make people around them happy, give them courage not to easily give up with life, organizing campaign and talk to share with people about importance of taking serious about health, keep supporting each other and they just give their life hope that they can make their life better.

That is all. They just accept it and make good choice on how to react on that.

Same goes to us. In life we experience many things. Either the things good or bad to us, only we determine it.

Always remember that whenever emotion high, then intelligence becomes low. We cannot think rationally whenever we let our emotion control us.

If I am not mistaken, The Prophet Muhammad once reminded us that we should not make any decision whenever we are in anger. Because usually it will only lead to a worse situation. So keep calm and think deeply before come to decision.

They are many more example that we can see in life. However, the most important thing is how we see it and make it as a guideline in our life.

Just take the life positively. Always believe that positive mind will bring us a better life and negative mind will only bring us nowhere. 

Oh, what a mumbling.
