O Great Lights and Divine Spirits,
Today, I try to deal with my heart and soul’s ongoing dissatisfaction with my life. By others’ standards, I am a successful person. I have real estate investments, I have a loving, beautiful and intelligent girlfriend, my career is at its best, and generally speaking, I am at my personal best. And yet, something tells me there’s so much more. I seek to understand where this nagging voice comes from. A voice that affects my overall happiness. It’s like, everything I do or achieve is never enough.
The question has to be asked, “Is this unending yearning for more, healthy for me?” It certainly is necessary for someone who wants to live life to the fullest. And if I didn’t have it, I would’ve stayed in the comfort zones I have enjoyed in the past. So I guess I have to give some credit to this voice. For its incessant calling has led me to greener pastures.
I hope and pray that this voice takes all its orders from the Great Lights and Divine Spirits of this Universe. Om!
Hallelujah. Amen.

man has no satisfaction but only in God. the more man has, the more he wanted to have more. this just proves that material things is not a measure of one's inner happiness or joy.
ReplyDeleteHi bingskee, I think you've also heard the teaching "What profits a man if he gains the whole world but loses his soul?" - this question reminds us that we must have a balance between worldliness and godliness. It's not too wise to focus on material things and starve your soul of spiritual nourishment. But it's also hard to live in this world without access to some material and "worldly" comforts. What do you think?
