Presence In Time!
I have been in and heard a lot of discussions about life after death and what happens to the soul once it departs our body. Whenever, someone or a group of people have initiated these discussions in front of me, my mind crops up questions as to why these folks contemplate so much about life “AFTER” death?
- Have we finished living our life currently - in the right ways?
- Have we lived our life to the fullest - enjoying and fulfilling every dream that we may have dreamt of?
- Have we finished or done with walking those fruitful paths of being kind, being generous, being polite, or being helpful?
- Have we helped and been there for those who must have ever needed us - in their most silent ways wished for our presence?
- Have we really given a thought to the way we live at present in the current second?
- Have we truly given it a thought if we ever need to change the way we live and accommodate those whom we love so dearly even more than we ever did?
Once these days go by, they never come back. Seconds of time are passing by us everyday. If only we could truly spend some time really focusing on how we are living and passing each day by - I am sure most of us would come across something or at least one thing that we would need to change in the way we live at present.
Be it changing for someone we truly love or making some changes in our daily lifestyle to accommodate those who really need us. Wouldn’t this by itself be contentment and a peace making moment within your soul? Shouldn’t I call this a satisfying living by itself?
It’s about focusing on every single day of our lives - our current presence in time, rather on something which we don’t know about. I may have mixed feelings about the laws of karmas. The reason being, I haven’t been there and still have lot of time yet to know what will happen to me after my death 
- but I do know that I can be happy at this point in time and probably do the things that would make my loved ones happy as well. Easier said than done - but it’s possible! I wish to live my presence in my time.

Stay Happy & Be Positive!

deep,
“Have we truly given it a thought if we ever need to change the way we live and accommodate those whom we love so dearly even more than we ever did?”
This statement alone is so heartfelt and soul rendering to me. We as people are so concerned that we forget the biggest element or commodity we enjoy-time.
Too many people give power to their past, give away their energy to a future they have not experienced, resulting in a loss of awareness for the moment. Our moments, the moments we share with our loved ones, moments that make up the joy we may experience—if we are paying attention.
As Greek Philosopher Heraclitus said “Nothing endures but change” If that is true then the following might be helpful:

what you say is true….but people think(including me) just to get a sense of security…you know you want to be comfie of the fact that there is no bad which is going to happen….what really happens…hmm…there are so many different views…but i believe that there is one universal soul and from that we all draw energy….so we are all descendant of the universe ….

“………It’s about focusing on every single day of our lives - our current presence in time, rather on something which we don’t know about………”
So simple, yet so true.

Quite an interesting take… as of now, i tried answering the questions above, and all the answers were negative! Kinda made me think that i have so much still left to do in this life… so much left to achieve… its sort of a humbling feeling….

Vishesh,
its all about that desire that no bad can truly happen to oneself. However, if it did, then probably it did to either teach you something or something that you needed to change to have a different opinion on, in comparision to what you were already having. Energies of the universe — yaa..read the book called The Secret?
Caroline,
Thanks for your wonderful comments. Its so true that we need to live by our day, every single minute in it. Thanks for visiting by.

Cheers! Life is short, but we still have enough time everyday to do what we can!
LOL..I am sure, you will acheive all that you have always needed - as long as you have been focussing on it.
