MY TOMORROW
Friday, December 12, 2008
I read a wonderful verse from Bible about tomorrow…
” Yet you do not know what your life will be like tomorrow. You are just a vapor that appears for a little while and then vanishes away. Instead, you ought to say, ‘If the Lord wills, we will live and also do this or that.’ But as it is, you boast in your arrogance; all such boasting is evil” (James 4:13-16).
Tomorrow is just a vapour…But still we boast about it…is it not?
I should do a lot preparation for a better tomorrow…and land in a good position in some tomorrow…I should earn money for a better tomorrow…I have to do a lot of savings for the well being of me and my future generation in some tomorrow…And that too if its a girl child it should be useful for the guy who will marry her some tomorrow…
Parents do a lot of planning and preparation so that the children have a better future..some tomorrrow…And don’t know who said..if parents don’t do good deeds, their children will suffer in the future which is some tomorrow.
If I don’t attend the wedding of my friend today..she/he won’t attend mine which will happen some tomorrow…:)
We don’t know what the future holds but still we tend to live for that unknown tomorrow planning for it. Its very right to plan for the tomorrow which gives us hope to live for today. If there is no life for tomorrow we would mostly end up getting confused on what to do for today, and there would be no hope to live the life today. Eventually the hope for tomorrow gives us the life for today but we miss to live the life today busy planning about the future.There are many instances when we forget to live for today while we would get carried away by the thoughts of future. There would be so many things we want to do..but still put off them aside for sometime and get going planning for the future, an unknown tomorrow.
I remember one of my friend always tell its good being good to others , being loved and love everyone. What if we don’t have time today for accomplishing it and postponing it to do it because of the worries about tomorrow. None of us know what tomorrow holds for us but yet we plan for it for thinking to avoid the problems in life of some tomorrow.why did we become so pessimistic completely? Its very easy to talk about things like that and may be you will say why can’t we do what we feel like and say what we want to..but yet there is some kind of a fear of which stops us to do what we think, which eventually stops us to live today.
So just a food for thought…why don’t we think on this note? To do things which we like to do today, putting things of tomorrow aside.
To bring a smile on someone you love today, than postponing it for some occasion and what if you don’t get a chance again?
Have you enjoyed the rain? Why don’t we try it and what if a situation happens that you have 2 kids and you wanna dance and I am sure no one can help the situation :-)
To make someone’s day special, how about writing a note and keeping it on the table of a loved one and enjoy their feeling of happiness..what if you cant do it in some tomorrow?
To eat loads of chocolates today and what if you become a diabetic tomorrow?
We spend lot of money on the siblings and friends in treating them and buying gifts to see the smiles and what of we can't do it some tomorrow?
When an old friend of you wants to meet you today and if you postpone it since you were busy planning for the future and what if you can't meet them that tomorrow?
When we forget to express the love to a dear one while we were deeply carried away by the plans for future..what if may be tomorrow it won't be possible to do it?
You compromise..and that’s called life. Its true. But to live for today there should be no compromises. We are in need of a tomorrow to live today but tomorrow should not be a reason for not living today. The one precious day we have, since yesterday is already dead and we don’t know what tomorrow holds. The one who lives today the fullest will be the blessed one of all the being.
Read somewhere…
"We shall do much in the years to come, but what have we done today?
We shall give our gold in a princely sum, but what did we give today?
We shall lift the heart and dry the tear, We shall plant a hope in the place of fear, We shall speak the words of love and cheer but what did we speak today?
We shall be so kind in the afterwhile, but what have we been today?
We shall bring each lonely life a smile, but what have we brought today?
We shall give to truth a grander birth, And to steadfast faith a deeper worth, We shall feed the hungering souls of earth, but whom have we fed today?
We shall reap such joys in the by and by, but what have we sown today?
We shall build us mansions in the sky, but what have we built today? ‘
Tis sweet in idle dreams to bask, but here and now do we do our task?
Yes, this is the thing our souls must ask, “What have we done today?”
