In the beginning it was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. Let there be life, and there was life, with the breath of life.
What is life? We did not choose when or where we appear. In fact we did not chose to live in the first place. So what is life about? Why was there life? Who gave me life? How did an egg and a sperm create a living creature that walks the earth and dominates the world? And why an egg and a sperm create such different creatures? Some black, some white, some yellow, some brown. Some smart so not. Some big, some small. Some good-looking, some not. Some successful, some have yet be. Yet all are made in the same genetic material.
"The rich and the poor have one thing in common, the Lord is their God"
So why are some rich and others not? Why are some happy and some sad? Why is there drought and flood? Why is there war when there could be peace? How can one human murder another? How can there be backstab?How could people, a human being be harden in their heart? How can tragedy change a person's life? So bad things do happen to good people. But why?
A lot of questions isn't it?
Ain't we all full of questions? Ain't we all want to know why? Ain't we all have issues that bother us? Ain't we all carry baggages we want to lose? Ain't we all looking for some forms of answers in our life continuously? Ain't we all just imperfect human beings trying to do things right the first time?
Yet many times we failed. Many times we messed up. We ruined things that are not meant to be ruined. And so there are consequences for us to bear.
Indeed there are second chances in life yet not in every situation you get to do it again. Many times when you miss your chance you lose your stake. Haven't you heard that some people describe life as gambling. You win some, you lose some.
The pressure of life indeed is stressful, to the young to the old. Every age group has problems of their own. In their own way a heavy burden to bear.
There were those times when it feels like you reach the end of the road. Those times Your desperation drives you crazy. Worse of all, there is nothing you can do about it. You pray and prayed and pray some more. Yet, nothing happen.
There were those times you life seems like its going downhill. There were those times you fell and keep falling and you do not know when you will hit the ground. There were those times it feels like a dream, like a dream that you dreamt about falling. A dream you dreamt that you are falling and that you can't wake up from.
There were those times your life seems out of control. There were those times your adrenaline rushed to the max. There were those times your blood pressure hit the roof. There were those times your heart pound like its going to stop.
There were those times you lay flat on the floor like a piece of clay. There were those times you were nothing but crushed into pieces. There were those times you were down and you are out. There were those times you look up above. Waiting for a sign. Waiting for a higher being to pass you by. So that you can yell "HELP! God.... Is God there? Or is there God?" There were those times you get pound, you lose hope, you don't believe anymore. You stare at the sky wondering "God... Why do you hate me? Why are you messing up my life?"
Maybe it is true that only when you are not able can God be able. Maybe it is true that only when you break can God shape you. Or maybe it is true that when you become weak can you be strong. Or is Batman right that it is when you fall you learn how to stand up?
So what is it? What is life? And how to master the life given to you? How to live your life ahead? How do you not mess up? Intelligence? Wisdom? Guidance? Or luck? What is it?
Ain't we all looking for answers?
