Doubt vs Faith.

Doubt vs Faith.

Two scenes.

As simple as that.


Doubt.

He was sitting in his chair. Terrible quality. Looking back on his life. A life of constant struggles. He thought he would be a pain in the ass. He was. That is exactly how people perceived him. Everything what he predicted had come true. Trouble seemed to be his middle name. The love of his life a scam, his job lost, no money. He could not keep it. He felt unworthy. The universe had no mercy. His mindset was poison. It only brought more dark clouds. Only chapters with sadness and an ocean of lost chances. He died lonely. Nobody around. The end.


Faith.

His face was beautiful. Yet, a lot of wrinkles. Solid signatures from a life full of adventures and joy. His memories enriching and touching. In every chapter many beautiful encounters. The bucket list exceeded many times. Happy voices. Wonderful exchanges. Lessons learned. Grown. His courage reached the sky. As a little boy he always knew that he would make it. He was brave. Lucky Luke. Different from the rest. A mindset with a golden crown. Never ever he had given up on his dreams. He never died. The universe kept him alive. His soul had wings. Born with faith. That made all the difference.

What do YOU want in life? Will you choose doubt or faith?

First, let me mention a recent development. The scientists have discovered other universes, than the one we are the part of. So, there are other universes as well, might be bigger than this one. But we are yet to explore even a tiny part of our own universe. The universes can be explored, as they are made to be explored and think on. Nothing is impossible. We can grasp them when we will explore them. Without full knowledge, nothing can be grasped you know.

The universe is made for us, this is for sure. The universe could be within us and for us if we believe in Him.

You must know Him Liesbeth :-) There must be a Creator who created everything. This universe, or universes, is the mega system we can ever witness. There must be Someone who runs the system, as any system needs to be run by someone. Don't you know Him?

Yes, this is a practical thinking. But our minds have a very limited capacity. Mind doesn't work in many situations. You cannot see what's happening behind a wall, a turn, or a close door, just inches away from you. So, whatever you think, might be opposite to whatever happening behind or out of your sight. Thinking and planning is our responsibility. That's why we have been given all the senses and are called the best creature, the human. But it should not be taken that the planning will bear the exact results what we look for. There is Somebody there, Who decides. But again, we have to use our best.

No, , we can't control our destiny, again, to be realistic. When you don't know what would happen to you or anybody else after a second or couple of seconds, then thinking about controlling destiny is not a realistic approach. Yes, you can work hard, remain positive, and use your all abilities to fullest to make your ways. But you must have a strong belief that Somebody is there, watching your efforts, and He normally doesn't let your efforts go wasted. Your pray to him for that works to change your destiny. But your efforts is the condition.

destiny, do we control it? What do the other bees think? Let us know!

To be realistic, yes . You can see the level of miseries in people lives, the level of poverty in many parts of the world, and such other displeasing views. All these people are not negative or weak inside. But they cannot change their destiny, may whatever they do. We also can mention people in our own lives, who are full of courage and positivity, and have all the abilities for a successful and happy life, but they don't get it. Something goes wrong with them everytime. They never give up, as giving up is death, but they can't be called happy either. They just linger on and keep struggling to save themselves from sinking. Destiny is a thing which plays a great role everywhere.

yes, reality can hit hard for some of us, let us hope that in these cases, there is always an angel on our side, thank you Qamar Ali Khan

Beautifully done job ! You presented two opposing aspects, and left the conclusion on readers' own perception and experience of life. But you gave the 2nd option more weightage, as it looks to deserve that, probably. Actually Liesbeth, remaining positive, hopeful, and not ready to give up are the basic qualities to live a life. But there are certain circumstances, where one becomes helpless, despite of their inner strength and courage. I had worked in a big hospital some years back, as Incharge operations. I witnessed some examples or traces of such miseries, overtaking very very strong people. So, to be realistic, we should remain positive, do our possible best, ready to embrace bad times, and leave the rest on Him, if the things are beyond our limits or control.

Ah youth, sweet ; PLEASE don't take it as an insult because I know your not naive! There's something to be said about drawing a line; the first scenario is in black and white, the second in color. I don't feel I have much control in my life as I've willingly given it over to another who needs my help. It's his condition that takes away control - not him!

Poverty can be the result of both faith and doubt. Faith in the wrong people. Faith in a system that doesn't work. So many factors that result in the doubt of one's abilities. Faith cannot cure it all. Faith sometimes destroys.

i write down things i cannot think beyond. The walls so to speak. Then assum them as starting points rather than the finish line and move towards what i can see. Linkages reveal a lot.

When in doubt . Work it out. No one can really lose faith. We usually tend to lose the ability to think and act due to this false perception of conflicting choices.
