Whoops! I haven't realized that it's almost been a month since my last entry here in my blog. Anyway, a lot of things have happened since then and all I can say that this here's summer is one of those summers that I can easily forget. Don't get me wrong, I have had some pretty interesting moments on this summer of 2011 but there's just something lacking...I just don't know what it is. (cheezy!)
Tonight I was pondering about the reason behind the problem about world peace. Several questions kept running through my mind as I though about this random topic that I picked up as I was wandering off to wherever in my mind. Why is world peace so difficult to attain? Why can't man realize how good the world will be once we all live together in perfect harmony? Why can't we, people, lower our pride and have the ultimate compromise and patience for one another so that genuine equality will be attained and no one will be left behind? Why does there have to be different classes of society which inevitably downgrades or upgrades a single human being? Why?
Through the whole 19 years that I have been existing in this world, I can say that I have been a very observant person. I'm not a "speak right away whatever you think of" kind of guy. I'm more of a think before you act. I guess it's just because of how I was brought up. My parents always told me to think first before doing something since it's just the practical way of doing things. Having said that, I get to think of so many things inside my head and maybe someway somehow learn and discover things that I have yet to experience. (Is that right?)
Now, going back to my questions earlier...
One reason that I could think of is that because of the fact that people are greedy. Everybody wants power. Every body wants money. We all want to be the best. We all want to be known. Yet, here's something that I have brought with me throughout the time I was growing up coz of the teachings in Zobel and the Catholic Church in general - We won't be bringing anything material with us when we die. The only thing that would judge us to determine which place to go to will be our souls and our conscience.
In short (and in tagalog), walang silbi ang mga bagay na mayroon tayo ngayon dahil hindi natin ito madadala sa langit.
Let's try to think of others first before we become so full of ourselves. Lahat tayo ay Anak ng Diyos at dapat tayo'y mabuhay sa ngalan Niya.
Until the next time.
Phim
