How to live wise and worthy ?
Recently I happened to read on life and death, and their meaning. We find some people live a meaningful life and die happy. As many might think to probe, I too had the doubt as to 'how to be happy in life and then die'? How to make my life worthy, for me and others. One of the books point out the value of time as a basic knowledge one must posses.
When we are born, our clock starts ticking. We are given a limited and undefined amount of time. This short and uncertain amount of time can be spent in unlimited ways with unlimited number of choices on how to use the time. The choices that we make , ultimately decides our life. Knowledge and wisdom are the two sides of the same coin. Knowledge is the accumulation of information. Wisdom is our ability to choose the right information and decide our choices. Therefore, we should discover what's for us, and choose that. Then the knowledge becomes meaningful.
Living a life is extremely important. Else it's just vegetating, like the animals, plants and other living organisms.
We also should be aware that our life has a definite but uncertain end, the death. If we lived for ever, we could have taken everything slowly, and irrespective of time. But that's not the case. The death - that's our end- traces our own passage over time. Death follows you, always as your own shadow. That doesn't mean, be prepared for death any moment. But, just be aware, so that you live your life and then face death.
We all doesnot like the word 'die' or death. We all, knowingly, shield ourselves from this truth.
For living a meaningful life, the deeds should be meaningful and useful to you and all.
