Do we ever wonder why our nature is like that?
No, we do not.
We simply live the next day as if it was natural for us to do that.
Life is precious...
Life is brief...
Life moves by quickly...
We only notice how much time is left when there is not much of it... and then, my friends, it is too late.
Few of us ever dwell for very long or ponder as to the purpose of our existence. We simply live our lives as we perceive it was intended for us to live them... sometimes, we succeed in that purpose and sometimes we fail, but we never think about the outcome until it has arrived.\
We are so smart by the time we have finished high school and college that we seldom think there is really anything left for us to learn. How foolish were we back then, to be so arrogant? In essence, we knew very little, if anything about life around us or the justification for or existence... even towards the end of our live, we are not all that convinced that we fully understand and/or appreciate why we were even born...
And, to address that birth is of similar importance because we gave no such permission for it to happen... yet, it did... living a life that was forced upon us.
Were we to have:
become wealthy?
be a soldier?
an artist?
a criminal?
If we have no choice in our birth, what makes us think that we have a choice in our PURPOSE either?
If we don't...
then our lives are predetermined... no matter what we want or think we want or try to make it any different than what it is already planned out to be...
What kind of a life is that?
Perhaps, this is why few us think about it and why few of us care so little about what happens to us from one day to the next... especially, if it is all really out of our control.
These kinds of questions never have any answers so why even think about them at all?
