Yes, its true that we understand things not the way they are , but the way we are. A certain kid saw an aeroplane passing through the sky. Because it was his first time, the kid was confused. He couldn't understand it. Finally he asked his father "Father what is that thing passing through the sky?". The father replied " Its an aeroplane ". Kid asked again " what is its importance? ". The father replied " Its used to transport people or lagage among countries or continents". The kid rejected the father's answers. He couldn't believe the tiny thing he saw in the sky can carry even one person! One time , the kid and his father went to a beach that is just opposite an airport. The father used the chance to explain to the little boy the meaning of aeroplane using the physical stationary aeroplanes at the airport . This time the kid believed because the aeroplanes were too big not like the other tiny one he saw in the sky. The kid didn't know that the one he saw in the sky seemed tiny just because it was too far from him!That's what happens most of the times we try to imagine what the future holds for us. Sometimes the future seems too bright and we get driven by fantasy and we become too egoistic! Sometimes it seems too dark , we get depressed , frustrated and suffers from anxiety! Janet Kataha Museven , the first lady of Uganda said in her novel ' My life's journey' when she was in hard times during her husband's struggle for presidency " The more I thought of the future , the more it frightened me. What hope was left for us , I wondered ? I hoped against hope. No matter how normal we tried to make life , there was always danger lurking around the corner. I felt like my life was hanging in the balance". Its very good to imagine about the future , but if it's at the expense of all your happiness, please kindly just do your best today and forgive the future. The best you do today will put you at the next level tomorrow. There is always a way. Please, don't get frustrated through imaginations.
In the journey of life, there is a point where everything seems to have a dead end. A point where there is no single hope left. A point where saying that we have problems, is an under statement. Its at this point where one questions the value of his existence on earth. But is there a dead end really? "Now it happened on a day when his sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in their oldest brother's house, that a messenger came to Job and said , 'the oxen were plowing and the donkeys feeding beside them, and the Sabeans attacked and took them. They also slew the servants with the edge of the sword, and I alone have escaped to tell you". While he was still speaking, another also came and said, " the fire of God fell from heaven and burned up the sheep and the servants and consumed them: and I alone have escaped to tell you". While he was still speaking, another also came and said, " the Chaldeans formed three bands and made a raid on the...
