The Reality of Life
- We think a lot about the future, and forget that death is the future from which there is no escape.
- We postpone happiness, as if life will never end.
- We fear loss, and forget that everything in this world is temporary.
- We run after money, and forget that it is our lifespans that are diminishing.
- We get preoccupied with pleasing people, and forget that what truly matters is pleasing God.
- We wait for the right time to live, and forget that time itself is passing.
- We grieve over what we missed, and forget that what remains of our lives is closer to the end.
- We accumulate for a tomorrow we do not know if we will reach, and forget that today is the only certainty.
