We Forbid..

We have forbidden a lot on ourselves. And, we have been forbidden to do a lot too. When we are forbidden by God, we may not understand why and we may start to understand why at some point, but we will definitely realize the benefit of us being forbidden from it.
But, when we ourselves forbid something - then we are relying on unstable intelligence with no definite conclusion or definition of anything. Our knowledge database constantly changes and newer things are revealed to us each day or in time and so our definition of the same things changes too. So, what we may think to be harmful today may prove to be beneficial tomorrow and what we may think to be beneficial today may prove to be lethal. Thus, we cannot forbid neither should we venture into this territory of basing our "forbidden" and "allowed" on our own perceptions and views. Just stick to what was forbidden and what was not - rely on intelligence beyond us, God's word. It is up to you to decide what IS God's word, and what is not. But, do be careful in this. Because in all forbidden and allowed , the loss and gain is ONLY your own.
The human being has not reached perfection yet.

The Night of Reflection

The whole day we run from one task to another. We say many things, do many things. We meet many people and avoid some. We get stressed and sometimes angry. We convince and get convinced. The whole day is spent dealing with people and family issues. Things to buy and things to fix.
And then comes the night when all relax. The exhausted body finds rest finally. The exhausted mind... Reflects.
The mind goes through every event and reflects. It analyzes and reacts and decides. The mind grows every night, if we let it...

The Pretender

I saw you today, smiling and being powerful. Many around you believed you were. But I could see fear and despair in your eyes. I could hear the slight tone of fear in your declarations of power and "I". People saw a man of strength and I saw a weak man seeking help. I could see through the pretending.
And in seeing this, the reality, your reality - I felt compassion for you and I prayed for you.
Real power is in being humble and attributing all power to God and not to oneself.
Remember that my friend.

Discrimination

The illusion of superiority.
What achievement could possibly make one decide their greatness and superiority over another human being? Greatness is overcoming the "self". The one that has achieved that does not feel superior to anyone but all of mankind puts them in a place superior to others. Respect is not demanded, it is given to someone by all of mankind, directed by God.
Worldly achievements are as temporary as the life in this world. So, why feel superior to another because of them?
The one that discriminates, lives in this absurd illusion and eventually causes pain to many and mostly to themselves. A pain that will find no relief should life pass by and they do not overcome it.
Do not Discriminate.

Desire Has No Mercy..

Oh Desire!

Have you no mercy on my soul? You torment it with your insisting and debating and pushing .. You make it cry. Oh Desire, you are weak for you fall for temptation and corrupt yourself. You persist and insist to be fulfilled... Should my soul then comply? You see not what the soul sees. And you cannot begin to care for what was before you and what shall be after you. You grow and grow and never fade away to leave the soul in peace.

Desire, you are not of the soul. You are not of the heavens. My soul has whispered this to me. It has told me all about you. You are the enemy of completion. You are what stops the journey of the soul....

I shall tame you and leave you thirsty and fulfill you sometimes so that you no longer torment this soul. I shall make you one with the soul...
