Life after Death

Life after death may be a great question each of us asks. Well, a while ago in my HUM2 class I was enlightened with an idea given by our instructor. It was not a literal explanation but rather an analogy. By this I mean he compared death to sorrows, hopelessness and problems; he referred life to hope and happiness.

That idea eased the burdens that I am carrying because right now as I am trying to furnish this post I am preoccupied with certain things that bothers me. Life on earth is like the life of a phoenix, after having lived certain years of a healthy life he faces a challenge that weakens him, thus causing him to die. He turns into ash, but on a certain time he rises again carrying with him new strengths and new tactics to help him survive in this cruel world.

We all know that life is full of challenges. We can never avoid it, it is inevitable. The only option we have is to face it in an optimistic way in a sense that we consider some points that things does not always go our way. Sometimes we tend to feel hopeless when in fact hope is just around the corner. You know it is easier to give pieces of adbice as to how one should live life, but I myself needs one. But the only thing I do to make my life worthwhile is that I always pray to God for me to be enlightened in my daily struggles in life. Hopefully all of us should have the gift of peace of mind so we can make the world a better place to live. There is a speaker who once said that we must acquaint thyself with God. True indeed we would be nothing without God.

I know that problems may cause us to be weary but remember, there is no such thing as hopelessness it is only a notion. The truth is we are always endowed with hope all we have to do is live with that hope so that we can rise like a phoenix. Do the things we must and attain success. As it is said successful persons are those with bruised knees.
