Life and Death

Before we discussing the details about life, let us understand for a moment and contemplate the true meaning of the life.What is life actually? Why we must life in this world? Who was created us and sent us to this world? Life and death is like a relationship that can not be separated because it has a strong charisma and it has related each other,Our life in this world will decide our life in the day after tomorrow,it’s mean that we are not allowed to determine the meaning of life based on the vague concepts,if we are wrong to determine  the true meaning of life our way of life will be astray also.Thus,finding the meaning of life is the critical point that should not be wrong,and we can finding the true meaning of the life by seeing it in the AL-QUR’AN,the first meaning of the life is worship,we must worship to our GOD that have made us,we must worship in all of aspects in this world.Then life is temptations so we have to be patient to facing it and try to find the way to solve these problems,trust me if you have problems and you try to solve it with calm you will find the way to out of these problems and finally you will find the happiness.

Do our life has meaningful and usefull? And how to make our life become meaningfull and usefull? I think this is quite difficult to be answered, before we try to answer this question it will be better if we use our destination and our dream to be the parameters to answer the question. Don’t make our self can be influenced by the outside conditions such as mind, value, and the felling from other people for us.How to make our life become more useful?

·         If our life is worship,make sure that all of our activity that we done is just for ALLAH,

·         If life is temptation, there is no way again except run this life with patient, and always try to find the way.

·         Always try to be honest’s people, because if you always do your activity by honesty,I beliefe that everyone will closer to you.

·         Alaways keep the confidence from other people

·         Always try to make the people arround us give their smile

·         Share our happiness with the dear ones

·         Etc

But I think everyone in this world have their own way to find the meaning of their life and make their life become meaningful.After we find the meaning of life,do our life will always be happy too?and what is the happy life ? happines is relative, everyone in this world have the different answer about this.Actually when ALLAH created us and sent us to this world is one of the happiness that human mustbe get, we can see the beautifull sunrise and sunshine, the amazing moon in the night, and see the beautiful creature in this world is one of the luckiness that maybe won’t be got by another creature,how if you was bornt as a wind or water in the river,can you imagine that? If you was bornt as a water in the river you can’t do everything that you want, you just can follow where the stream will flow and you will not have dreams because you can’t doing anything to raise your dream.Not only that we are so lucky because we have people who so kind and always help us while we live in this world, who are they? They are angles who were given by ALLAH to take care and introduce the meaning of alive to us, we can call those angles as a parents.But wehave to know also that live is not like a film that always happy ending, sometimes we will find the trials and problems that have to be solved, but you must not be give up and stuck in that point, you have to facing it and try to find the way.You have to believe also that failure is the beginning of the succes.

And now about DEATH, Everyone was born to this world actually suffered two dead and two alive, the first live is our life in this world that actually just like a game that was restricted by space and time, but many people have forgotten that this live is not immortal, life is not like ball that doesn’t have start line and finish line, our life is always move toward one point, that is DEATH. Actually DEATH will be our second alive that immortal, if we are talk about death many people was scare about this word because everyone have the instinct to stay live even though they have so many problems and problematic in this world. There are so many factors that influence why people don’t want to die, such as they think that what they have in this world is better with the thing that they will get in the day after tomorrow. Alive after die is the start from the long life in human evolution, where the people will get all kinds of pleasure and torture for the deeds that they have done in the world.There are some people who see that death is something that enjoyable and beautiful, and death is something that terrible, or maybe some people see that death is nothing. We don’t have to scare about death but we don’t have to want to die also, Allah was given us alive so we have to running our life as well as possible.

So, life and death is related each other, and the meaning of life and death it self is very complicated but the most important thing is how do we deal with life and death it self.
