relativity

one great Teacher ever taught humans, "all things exists in relativity.." .. but how many of us really understood the meaning?

well .. from my humbly short life span here.. this is my point ..

my close friend has been attached with another partner for over 7 yrs, and one day, his partner left town for a few days, to attend to some personal matters..

over dinner, he shared with me, "i think i can understand how you guys felt when you just broke off, its like, some one, is just not there, where you were so used to finding it there last time"

well .. bingo .. 

we came to Earth alone [ok, some may be twins or triplets, but most of us, alone]

and we will leave Earth, some day, alone, also .. 

then? why did every one fear to be alone, to be lonely, to be unattached with another?

why did every one cry when he just broke off? why does the heart ache so much when some one left us? 

because... some one had been into our hearts .. feel it with warmth .. and joy ..

more than words can describe.. its like some sweet dreams, in the heavens..

and when some one left us? this warmth and joy will be sucked out ..

and we gone back to where we all started, alone..

then why painful?

because, we had experienced "it" before... and without which, in comparison, its much colder and less joyful in where we used to be..

its like this scenario .. you had been born and live in a poor, run down, squatters' slum area... and one day, u met some one who brought you into a palace to stay, for a period of time.. ... and then place you back into the slum ..

how would you feel by then?

you had grown up in the slum, spent many years there.. but look what happened now?

you start to miss those days in the palace.. start to find the slum smelly and dirty, start to..... feel bad?

well .. isn't this relativity?

slum is good .. as long as it is relative to nothing, nothing to compare with..

what now? slum when placed in relative to a palace... you know the answer..

we feel lonely, we think we are lonely, we think we need some one .. 

its because we HAD some one before.. and we want it again, if possible, forever..

this, in a way, its a form of desire, if not managed properly, will lead humans astray, and start doing wrong things..

put your perspective right,,, where did we start?

slum .

palace, nice place no doubt, but how many can actually stay in there forever?

we came here alone, will be leaving here alone .. so no point spent your days alive craving for partnership, fighting loneliness.

live life .. dun waste it . my life is ending, trust me, dun regret anything when you breathe your last.
