In her absence .......

We keep living life as routine. Family …work … friends …love.... it just seems like life is a never ending cycle that had grown beyond our control. Hmmm … How meaningless life have become when it is suppose to be that one chance that we have to live it to the max and at the same time realize ourselves. The funny part is when we realize this truth; we probably lived three quarters of life and there is no turning back. Lucky enough for me, I realized this when she left to Geraldton four days ago. My lonely mind didn’t allow me to rest well at night. Missing her dearly my mind started to think of the unthinkable.

It is then I noticed that there is more to life than just work, family, friends and love. Many of us feel hurt from the smallest problems that arise. Many of us get attached to family, friends, love and even our pets. Some are even willing to give up their precious life's just because of a minor failure. Sometimes I wonder whether our education system had failed us. It had thought us all sorts of knowledge except for the way to appreciate and live life. Maybe our education system left that part for our religion to guide. Oh god …. People can’t practice religion today as it is so confusing on which practice is actually right. Today, one religion condemns the practice of another. Hence in religion itself, many get lost and end up forming groups so that they get a sense of security that they are living life the right way.

Since our education system and our religion had failed us, how are we suppose to live life the right way is probably the next question on your minds. Well this is a very difficult question with a very simple answer. We have to learn to detach ourselves from the routine cycle of life. A baby cries for the first time as soon as it gets detached from its mother, same here … we would only tear the tears of realization if we temporary detach ourselves from our attachments and desire. In a crowd we can only seek externally for the answers of life but left alone we will start to seek internally for those answers. It is then that we will find our true self and realize the purpose of this birth.

Remember always, we had come alone and will leave alone. The least that we should do is seek the purpose of this birth. The comfort that we feel today will diminish one day. We will become memories to the people that we leave behind. Realize this now and live your life so that it will be meaningful to you before you leave to that better place. In her absences i had found myself and found the true meaning of love .........i now want her in my life as only then it will make the life that i had lived more meaningful.
