Mystery of Life

What are we here for is a big mystery. I think a lot about my objectives, my responsibilities and my desires. There are so many poor people all around the world and I have witnessed their pain, their suffering. I thank you for giving me the health, the brain and certain abilities, but yet I feel so powerless to bring a change even within myself. I need some innovation and extra ordinary capability to change myself and become someone special, with more power, more patience and more knowledge and wisdom.

It’s so easy to talk about justice, fairness, taking care of people, honesty, and dignity. But as they say talk is cheap. I read and think and contemplate about the world, with all beauties you have created and all sad miseries your creatures have caused for their generation and the generations to come. Indeed you are the greatest creator, and indeed your creatures have mad e a lot of progress. But yet, the pace of that progress is slow and the direction of it is unclear to me.

I pray to you for insight, for forgiveness, for kindness and wisdom and for strength and moral values. The sun is now shining and hope my heart will be bright by your mercy’s light.
