A closer look at life

It is a big question of mine that I have been asking to myself and people around me, is life fair to everyone? Being born into poverty or in a mansion in Los Angles who decides what they get ever?

When we’re born we are allocated to our families by default, no one decides where or to whom they’re born to. This may be a difficult situation for some as they grow older, they might start to think why some people have all these resources and advantages while I have nothing. Of course no one has ‘everything’ in their lives. People may posses many tangible assets and lack moral&spiritual things or this could be the opposite. Eventually everyone will have the equally same thing at the very bottom, being alive. Throughout their lives, individuals can try to change things for good and if they are lucky enough, they may achieve whatever they desire. When luck is not with you, it is apparent that no matter how well equipped and educated you are, you won’t stand a chance of achieving your goals. Sometimes all you need is, a little sprinkle of ‘luck’

To me life is not fair, it is as it should be. 

I have always believed that there is a great order in the universe and in our lives. That sometimes the things we choose or do is only one of the options that is offered to us. Let me illustrate:

I don’t know whether if you’ve played the game called ‘Detroit Become Human’ before, but to me life is way too similar to that game. There are paths that is offered to us, may seem completely different than one another but we always somehow eventually end up at the place we are meant to. That is arguably one of the most significant reasons for believing that there is a great order in the universe, that there is a creator and maintainer of all the things we have.

Scientists generally believe that we the humans have evolved through the years it looks just like this:

Of course based on the physical evidence that is found like remains, illustrations in the caves and other things the above image cannot and should not be ignored, and I do not ignore the evolution, I just have some further questions.

As studies discovered, our ancestors lived like wild animals in fact we too did and still are doing. To think the only thing that they care about was to live for another day, hunt, shelter and repeat fascinates me a lot. If we the Homo Sapiens were evolved from other living-organisms, did evolution bring consciousness with itself? If so, why it is not true for other living beings that can’t build complex things and think, live like us? As I said, I have a few (too many) questions and I know I am not alone, I shouldn’t be right?

A little about religion and god

A quick spoiler: I am Muslim and I believe in god, but wait do not judge me yet. There are things that does not ’fit’ about my own religion, yes does not ’fit’. 

I have a rather complex understanding of Islam and Allah which I wish not to disclose further details here, but can if you want to ever talk about it Privately. 

Afterlife is the only answer that I can accept right now, to think there is nothing, just empty darkness, being gone forever  no matter the memories, experiences, loved ones may be more rational to some, but it definitely  isn’t for me. If it is, then there is no meaning just stop there and let it go, but no we never do (generally) we fight to live, to survive no matter what our life conditions are. Thinking that there is an afterlife only makes me feel better and to try survive for another day because I know its worth to live, to have memories, to change lives of others..

To whom it may concern and read this online,

Dear stranger or friend, we may never have met before or we maybe best mates or only met once/heard our names. No matter what, I want you to read above things very carefully, digest it in a very long time and reflect on it as you make more understanding of things written. We may agree or disagree at some points but don’t be angry with me as there is still time and place to learn, to grow, to think and to embrace. We as humanity must learn to love, trust and respect the differences not matter how difficult it may seem to achieve in the first place. Only good doing can save, change and aspire a meaning to this life. Wrong doing and other negative things will most likely to make things a lot worse than what they are which is non-beneficial to everyone. Always try to do things you love but also be very careful to not to get lost while doing so. Materials stay, memories live forever. Always collect spiritual and sentimental values change someone’s life and remember to save your memories too, as they are the only things that last forever among with love and respect.
