Pause for a Second and THINK!

Have you ever thought ‘what if you die the next second’? What if you are diagnosed of a deadly disease which you cannot survive? Your days are numbered and your remaining life is spent counting days before death. At that point, when you relive your whole life, what do you see?

Ignore the life after death shivers, just forget about the unfulfilled wishes; just relive the life you have spent. What do you see? You see both good and bad days. Focus on the part about what you have been doing. You will realize that you spent life envying people, earning money, planning the future, messing up relationships on petty issues, living in the past and regretting bad decisions made, blaming fate for all the wrongdoings of life, fighting and arguing with people, gossiping/bitching about others, feeling jealous of friends/colleagues... There is an endless list of ‘such deeds’ you will remember. Pause for a second and think what benefit has it brought you? Apart from disturbing your mental health, inner peace and wasting time these activities have only damaged your life. And not just damaged your life it has hampered your happiness; and mind it this is on you. This impairment upon yourself is a result of your own doings.

Your envious and jealous attitude made you look down upon yourself. It leads to dissatisfaction with what you have. It made you focus on things you don’t have instead of the things you have. Because of such attitude you have been unable to cherish the gifts of God.

You kept on planning for future and worked and worked and worked; just to earn money for a better future. What if you don’t have a future? You spent all your life for a future which never existed. You wasted your life on something of which you have no guarantee.

You keep regrets in your heart for decisions which did not yield good results. And you just keep on living in regret. You keep on blaming fate for being unfair with you. If you die tomorrow, will you like the fact that you spent your last days blaming fate?

You argue with friends, fight with family and spoil relationships. Do you want to spend your last days alone? No family no friends around you to enjoy your last days with, is that what you want? You are wasting all the beauties of life. Top of all are wasting the most precious gift of God: LIFE ITSELF!

The world will not stop without you. People will not stop living; what matters is that will you be remembered in good faith? Will you leave a mark on this world that people take time to talk about you, in good terms? Or have you ever thought about any good you are leaving behind? Any good you have done for society or others without the expectation of getting something in return?

PAUSE FOR A SECOND AND RE-THINK. LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL. SPREAD LOVE AROUND YOU AND LIVE LIKE IT’S YOUR LAST DAY TODAY!
