Why Loneliness? Why Suffering? Why Me?

“If things happened it is indeed for a reason. If it did not happen it was never destined to…”

Ancient Words, so they say are ever true!!! No matter how best a person gives to win the treasured prize, if life does not hold the same for you, “It will not happen”. It’s absolutely not your fault if your loved ones walk out of your life or if your kids no longer respond back to your love or if you are not on a right job that can satiate your living/core competencies. Whatever the boulevard of Broken Dreams is, trust that everything happens for Destiny’s own reason. Wisdom lies with a person who patiently endures these rainy days until FRESH spring blossoms up!!!

One may ask, but why rainy days??? Why me? How long? With an amateur knowledge that I have, I can sketch few reasons.

1. Sin Leads to Suffering: First, Foremost and the ONLY law of life. “What goes around will have to come around”. What in eating just a Fruit? It was a fruit of knowledge of good and bad, indeed. Further to justify, God already did have a plan to give both Fruit of knowledge of good and bad and Fruit of eternal life to Mankind. So what was wrong for Adam and Eve, to eat it? Yes the voice that whispers deep inside of you now is right. Disobedience is a sin! Failing to adhere to God’s words is a transgression. Infatuated to enjoy Blessings ahead of God’s appointed time is felony; to Lusting for a fruit which was pleasing to eyes and disregarding your responsibilities and commitment to God (and family) is crime. Cursing someone of death for eating just a fruit may sound absurd, but God is too righteous to just discount or oversee one’s flaws. It may not even look like a sin to you, it may be a fully accepted human norm, but in Destiny’s eye, “if one has sowed he has to reap for I – Good or bad”.

· Good news: If there are rainy days, then spring would sprout up. Patiently endure the consequences God will let time turn around for you and “FRESH LIFE” will blossom. The best part of chastising is that the old baggage of the past would be traced away so completely, that whatever happened will be like a dream. It would feel so strange that you may not even believe that you did those things in the past.

· Bad News: Chastising is a space that destiny gives for one to repent. If one does not realize the purpose of God during the lonely and reproachable times, life would be a woe. Your past will continue to haunt you throughout your lifetime and you would feel lost in no man’s island. Specifically, quoting, if one does not leave the dirty garment of bad past away, endure chastising and surrender to Christ’s plan, be sure, the road ahead will be bumpier. Life will be a desert! Friends and loved ones around will care for dogs and plants, but your life will they mock and make a laughing stock!! Life will be a bed of thorns and afterlife will be eternal blazing fire!

2. Just Time’s Play: “To ever thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven….He (God) hath set the world in time’s Heart” So says, the wise man Solomon. How many times, do we give our best only to see people failing to reciprocate fairly? In Corporate world, performance is the key. They say, It is a Wild race to outsmart and get ahead of the line. Now, logically figuring it out if an organization consolidates of these so called individual performances, it should soar up to heights of globally competing against the Forbes and Fortune peers. It doesn’t happen, does it? So what are we missing in-between? I’ll let you frame your own answers, but the base is if you are not promoted or not recognized within your organization doesn’t mean that your performance is low! In effect your performance may be the best though you are an unsung hero. Year 2008 recession created a world of unemployed! Loyalty champions who gave their half lifetime for their Company were shown the door. Not to forget other personal peripheries one encounters with the world of cynical folks. If your loved one walked away or you are not being treated fairly or not on the right job or if life’s a thorn, remember it’s just times play. Do not try hard to work against the wind of life, let go or silently hold on until wheel turns your side. Yeah, sure It will turn your Side, in due Season! It’s nature law to let man experience all life’s absolutes, so to evolve his own balance!

· Good news: Every time that refrains from embracing is duly followed with a time to embrace. A time to loose with a time to get. Experiencing diverse absolutes of life evolves meaning to one’s existence!! Life’s own lessons will be treasured and sense of being self-conscious will evolve. All things happen for good.

· Bad news: During Good times, when man is abundantly blessed, it is his responsibility to share the happiness and fruits of life to those around. There is no good in writing off a $$$$ Check to “world known – well-renowned” charity Foundation and yet be ignorant of a hungry beggar or destitute woman in your own neighborhood. Be careful, to be considerate during Good times!! Each man is accountable and destiny will fairly repay each man, his action.
