Take a break

Life is uncertain and anything can happen with us anytime. There is no guarantee of life. Life and death can be a difference of one second. We know that death is the only certain thing but it's the nature of humans to hope. It is a very good thing because hope keeps us alive and makes us forget thinking about death all the time. It's a very interesting thing of us that we know it but we don't remember it all the time.

Which plans for tomorrow, next month, next year and so many things having the hope we will survive till that time. So, life is the most precious thing and now life is filled with competition and struggle which starts from birth time. The official competition begins from school time because of the ranking system. Everyone wants to be the first but unfortunately only one can hold the position. Parents want to see their child in the first position and it's ok but nowadays parents demand the first position from their child and they don't hesitate to create pressure on their child. This is the reason I don't support the ranking system. In the ranking process, a friend turns into a competitor and jealousy comes many times. Is there any benefit to achieving the first position in school? I don't think so but we do the competition for a meaningless ranking that has no ability to create a significant impact on life. I think proper study is enough and students should focus on their studies rather than focusing on ranking.

After finishing the competition at school we start another competition in the job sector again and this time the competition is about how much money we can earn. No doubt money is one of the most important things we need in life and we try to earn as much as possible. People judge us based on how much money we have. It should not be like that but unfortunately, it's happening. A man said already established in our mind that if we are huge money then we will get the respect from others as always from society. We set the criteria to be an established human. We are desperately running after money and many of us don't hesitate to do illegal work or harm others for earning money. It is a thing that dominates humanity otherwise it's not possible to harm others just for money.

What we are actually doing even after earning a lot of money? We sacrifice many beautiful and precious moments of our life to earn money. From a general concept, we divide it into 2 parts. One is for daily life use and the another part is for generating more money and many prefer to invest in different projects otherwise keep it in the Bank for some fixed interest. We believe that in the future we will be able to enjoy our life using those money. If we earn enough then, we start to save money for our future generation and decide to run after money as long as we can rather than enjoy life using the hard-earned money. But we are forgetting the basic truth that life is uncertain and death will come without any invitation. We may not get the opportunity for the so-called future for which we are waiting to enjoy life. So it's better to enjoy the present. Making plans for the future is ok but we shouldn't delay everything for the future which is uncertain. Sometimes we need to take a break and try to enjoy and free ourselves from the shackles of future thoughts.

I want to finish my writing with a beautiful quote and I hope you will like it.

“Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, today is a gift of God, which is why we call it the present.”

Sadly, that's the life cycle for most of us, and in pursuit of making a living, sometimes we forget to enjoy, create memories, and savor life. Your post reminds us not to do that. !LUV

Yes, I am seeing the thing and somehow I am also part of it although I am trying to make some differences but most of the time it's hard to make the difference for various kind of reasons.

Yeah. I think it is challenging for most to create a balance between work and play.

With how busy our lives have become most of us don’t even know what catching a break feels like anymore. It’s really sad but that’s our life.

The system is structured in a way that we all go through the same process growing up. Anything outside of that is considered weird by society.
