WHY ARE YOU LIVING?

WHY ARE YOU LIVING? One Saturday morning, I heard a man speak on the radio; "He that lives for nothing will die for nothing..." yet, he continued..."a life that is not adding value to others, is not worth living"...And he concluded saying; "What gives a man a sense of living & importance in life, is the value he adds to peoples' lives." And I concur wholeheartedly. Now, for you, what makes life worth-living? Is it because you have enough resources to enjoy? Or because, there are so many lives you want to positively touch? Well, you may give your own opinion when you are done reading this piece. I once defined LIFE as an acronym that reads; L-iving....I-ntentionally...F-or...E-achother. And I believe without mincing words, it's a true definition of what Life entails. Now, let's reason together. Can you imagine a world of two, where each one is ultimately living for just self? Would there be any progress in such a world? A world of absolute disharmony. A world where a mechanic tells the other man; 'hey! look here, I don't need your service for anything, I can take care of myself.' And the other man replies; 'look here Mr., I am a medical doctor, I don't move with people of your calibre.' Now, when the mechanic gets dangerously ill, who treats him? And for the doctor whose car breaks down on a very long and narrow bridge, who fixes his car? The Truth is , No One succeeds alone. No, not One! We all need one another with or without reward to see life through. If your life is not touching anyone in any positive way no matter how little , I'm sorry, you are yet to start living. Life has taught me again and again that; for every good I do to the other, the returns always outweigh the investment. Isn't that a good buy? In your capacity, help someone to succeed today, for in that, lies your own success story. Lovingly share with others as you spread the message of life-value and love.
