Decoding Humanity
The human race and its circle of
life, often times seem like this complex adjustment to a perceived reality. In
actual fact, it is more basic in nature than anything else. To eat, you need
food, to get food you need someone to give you what you need which could be
money, food, seeds to plant and grow your own food, land on which to plant …
The mere fact is this; the only
thing of true value during human existence is time. This is the currency upon
which all mankind trade on. So the very simple-looking but complex variable
question is this: How do you make the most of the time you have been given to
live? Most people express this answer in choosing a life pattern full of
activities: learning, working, promotion, marriage, family, investments, betrayal,
selfishness, goals, motivations, inspirations, aspirations, accomplishments,
acknowledgements and then death. Having achieved all of this activity on their
list, have they really lived? Is being human not much more than the things we
do? There is a truth beyond all that we know and have come across and it stares
us in the eye, daily. Most times we just choose to be ignorant; consciously or
unconsciously. The truth is this: everything worth of perceived value here on
earth ends for the owner in death. So again, the question: Why the constant
pursuit of things that hold no true life value when ultimately we all live to
die to live or die. Humanity is more basic in nature to each and every one of
us; what you see is what you get with just focusing on the surface of things.
Simply put, you and I are part of a process, a process that we neither know
beginning nor end, we are just here. We do not know how and we certainly do not
know why. What we do know for certain is that we are here, there is a reason
and it means so much more than a satisfaction of pursuits. My advice to you is
to do this: take it one day at a time, after-all no man can live tomorrow,
today.
