Humans emerged the land with nothing. Their minds, for me, was the so-called “tabula rasa”, unenhanced, undeveloped, unused. Through the evolution of the environment, people tried to adapt to the new system of stressors. They were able to levy strategies, techniques and proficiencies just to cope the constant change in the environment. Through the unstoppable flow of time, people learned how to boat the rivers by converting these stressors into a system of organize information which now we called life.
Yes, life. It is the life, which gives the living organisms the parameters from the nonliving ones. However, before we abuse the word life, let me describe to you my perception of the word LIFE.
Life itself is a continues process, a growth or decay, as long as the process continues from a certain basic start into a fruitful ending. From a simple mind into a clever one is also a life. What life could really be like may depend on how the user was able to use it. It is never necessary if how your life done but it is the matter on how you dwell with it.
Since life is a cycle, people should also be dynamic in attending the needs of life in order to sustain the necessity of his living.
In addition, life should be the best present God Almighty endowed to us for the reason that life is a fire in every matchstick. It is once in a lifetime opportunity to have witnessed the incomparable beauty of the paradise our creator provided us. He gave us the chance to feel the pains and pleasures of life. Despite the fact that our creator gave us the right and obligation to see his creations, did we ever wonder why we are here, wandering in his nirvana?
And that, people of the world, is our rightful obligation. To sought answers for our questions, to find reasons for every dilemma and purpose for every action. Dramatically, we are obliged to have a certain belief that should provide us a backbone or path that would guide us in the life we wished we could have.
Purpose. We all have purpose in life. What is it and how should it be accomplice is the question. I, myself still could not grasp the proper words or sentence to describe my purpose in life. I could not find the answer in my own questions. And what worse is the knowledge that having no goal in life is like a stone in the middle of the mud asking himself why he’s there?
But as my young mind started to adapt into the complex college life, my vision in the path I am taking started to clear, proving me a clearer sight on how I would keep myself keep the track. On the way of developing myself physically and mentally, my emotional aspect was able to provide itself more vivid reasons for every taken action about my previous experiences.
Thus, in sixteen years of glorious living in this paradise, I was able to articulate some points where I know my philosophy is being practice. And that philosophy is a sacred idea which I personally considered as my flashlight in the middle of the tunnel.
Throwing me question why I like this life is like asking a child why he wants to eat. It is simple. Asking me my philosophy is quite different story. The nearest answer I could stand is that I want to hold this life not because I need it personally or I love it so much but because my family need it. My family is the reason why I keep struggling in the middle of life’s labyrinth. They are the ones who give me the will to keep finding the exit from the confusing life.
My family are the most important persons in my life they are my life. Everything I do is for them, to cherish them to give them the most comfortable life I could ever give in a living spirit. I could sacrifice myself just for them for without them my life would not be as good as this. My family is my flashlight in the middle of a dark tunnel, I know the light is not so bright but it would be just enough for me to find the exit.
Back to my philosophy, I think what directs me is the will of my family. I move according to their will, I act base on what they said and I behave for what they say is right. I cannot say that is wrong but what I can say is that because of them I was able to set my own goals for myself.
After all, I only believe in just one thing.
All things have their respective reasons. Just like the apple fell from the tree, it has its own reason and I know you know it.
Before I put my signature below, I want to leave a simple message for each and everyone.
I do not act certain things because I want to have a bountiful harvest in the future instead, I act according to what I think I should act in appropriate manner and let life bring the right consequences.
It is the life, which gives the people troublesome, stressors and trials, however always remember....
Life is like a dark tunnel and you cannot see anything. But all of us have our own flashlights, Why not try to use your flashlight? Do you have one?
