Some people
think of life as the time they spend between being born and dying. Quite often
they are the people who are always worried and complaining, criticizing and
creating problem. Nothing is totally good for them and satisfaction is a word
they don’t know much. The good side is that they don’t create much attachment
to others, but lots of attachment to their own body and personality, their own
way of living.
Other people
think they will live forever and they dedicate themselves to have more and more.
They don’t mind about the future as such, because… future? What future? All will
be OK… A big advantage is that they are frequently in a good humored stage and
they easily adapt themselves. But, of course, one day they get old and the
fragility of human life knocks at their door.
An alternative
thought?
Spirituality
helps you to live the now, without
forgetting the tomorrow and honoring
the lessons of the past.
Although death
is certain, spiritual people neither fear death nor avoid thinking about it. When
it is time to go, a person knows he has to go, and that is ok; meanwhile, life
is to be lived at its full extension, full of love, peace and happiness.
A spiritual
person knows he will live forever, but not physically. A soul is thought as
being immortal, but its container, the body, is perishable. To deal with this
ambiguity, we can remind ourselves of that old quote: We are not human beings having a spiritual experience. We are spiritual
beings having a human experience.
It is easy: live
fully by connecting with the best of you and think of life as a big experience
that will enrich you as a being.
