Nobody knows the reality of life. Many great scholars, scientists and poets have tried their best to explain the term “Life”. In fact nobody has discovered and analysed “Life”. All of them are of different views.
Some scholars are of the views, “Life is a short period of time in which you prove yourself the truth in yourself and your link to this earth.”
Scientists believe that life is just to love and breathe for some years, and then at last it becomes a skeleton without muscles.
The analysis of life that belongs to the category of poets is quite different. They say “Life is full of comedy and love and without love life is nothing.”
According to mathematicians, life is the sum of half of happiness and half of sadness.
Life+love=Happy
Life-love=Sad
Adding both the equations,
Life+love=Happy
Life-love=Sad
2Life=Happy+Sad
Life=(Happy+Sad)/2
Life= 1/2 Happy+ 1/2 Sad
According to Shakespeare, Life is can be divided into seven ages just like the five acts of a play.
Ages Categories
1st An infant
2nd A school going boy
3rd A lover
4th A soldier
5th An honorary magistrate
6th An old man with a funny personality
7th A very old man second childlike traits
Like the white rays of sun, life ha so colour of its own. We give it the colour of spectrum through which we look at it. Life is the names of ups and downs. Every night is followed by a bright day. Do not be sad in the journey of life.
But there is a question arises into the mind which is that is a happy life different from meaningful life? A happy life and a meaningful life have some difference as described below.
Happy people satisfy their wants and needs but that seems irregular to a meaningful life.
Meaningfulness is derived from giving to other people while happiness comes from what they give to you. For example, spending time with friends was linked to happiness more than meaning, whereas spending more time with loved ones was linked to meaning but not happiness.
Self-expression is important to meaning but not happiness.
Being a Muslim, Life is a gift from Almighty Allah. It should be properly utilized for achieving one’s aim. As the Muslims, we can’t lead our lives without any aim. Almighty Allah has sent about 124000 prophets to lead human beings to the right path. Those who work hard prepare themselves for this test, will enjoy the fruits of their hard work.
Life is very short and it is from B to D. From Birth to Death, But what’s between B and D. It’s a C so what is a C? It is a Choice. Our life is a matter of choice. Live well and it will never go wrong.
God has given us only one life. Why should we not lead the way it should be lead? Time passes with the blink of an eye, and the time once passed cannot be regained. We should make use of every minute, which we have. We never know when we going to die. Anyhow, we should always hope for the best.
