Random Thought 131 - Good for the Soul

Sometimes, the world offers us something that is good for the soul yet we failed to see.


With all the troubles, problems, and woes that we encounter almost every day, life becomes a constant struggle.  Most probably, we are not spared complaining about life even in its littlest imperfection.  We happened to be in agony every time we are challenged.  And life becomes less exciting and less colorful.


As we used to hear and say likewise, the problems and troubles that we encounter add colors to our life.  What is life when it is too good to be true?  How can we truly appreciate and value life when we happened not to experience any difficulties at all?  And who has not experienced his fair share of life’s woes and struggles?


Maybe, just maybe, we need to take a breather.  The moment we are burdened and become less hopeful, the world offers something good beyond our understanding.  Just like my folks used to say, when all else fail, take a moment to pause and pray.  Afterwards, look towards the sky and believe with all your heart and soul that you are not alone.  That Somebody up there, ever great and powerful, plans something wonderful for you.  All you need to do is submit and commit yourself and the rest will be up to Him.
