WHY ASK WHY?
Yes!!! Why ask why? A lot of things are going on around the world today which raise a common question. ”The ‘why’ question… Why is this happening, why me, why are they, why are we, why this, why that, why, why and why?!”
We are part of this ‘why’ question. Since we are part if it, we are equally part of the solution. If we sit there only to ask this ‘why’ question in divers ways without proper solutions, the world will go down in our presence. We have collective responsibilities to answer this ‘why’ question,to solve and to avoid re-occurrence of this stone-aged question. I think it would be wise if we do not let the next generation carry it over.
Wait a minute, ponder over your life, the relationship between you and the people around you, your thoughts about others. Are you obedient,are you making peace, do you tolerate others, do you overlook some certain things, do you show understanding or you spice up whenever you think anyone crosses your border? Ask yourself “why am I asking why, why and why every time?”
You know, today if we try to make peace with one another, believe others, accept blames, take corrections and accept others the way they are irrespective of where they come from, color, background, position or standard in society or in life. If we can trust, obey, respect others, care about humanity at large and obey rules and regulations, we will have less problems. If we try to save our nerves by avoiding silly and unnecessary arguments and try to make less mistakes, we will make the world a better place. And we will never ask many ‘why’ questions.
Do you know that if 80% of the world’s population can keep peace within, of course the peace within will surely activate the peace without and we can keep that peace with our fellow men without discrimination, bias mind, cheat and injustice, we will only ask less why questions.
As we are all finding our rainbows wherever we are, it would be so good if we create and keep the attitude of making peace.With this, we can altogether learn the meaning of life, hold true and through to our findings. We will be successful and friends shall we always be.
Black or white, the same blood flows in us. A black does not have black blood and I am sure a white does not have white blood either. This applies to other races. We all have flesh, veins, arteries, nerves, bones, joints, balls and sockets. So we are the same except few of those differences we have such as beliefs, traditions, religions, gender and background. But if we can as an individual keep all these differences behind us, give understanding to each other and move towards achieving a global peace in all stages, we will make the world a better place.
If we learn by what we see in the sky, we can easily understand that we are from the same origin. For example, the cloud has so many types such as stratus, cumulus, cirrus, cirrocumulus, nimbostratus, cumulonimbus, lenticular, kelvin-Helmholtz, mammatus, altocumulus, stratocumulus and others as the case may be. You know, the joy is, they all come together to form our beautiful cloud. This same cloud that form our sky. So we are the same all over with different colors, ideas, backgrounds, culture, beliefs, races. Believe me,we are all the same.
If only we can accept this simple observation, we will have peace within and without. This is the only way we can live together when we swallow our pride as individual. Then we will stop asking why.
It has to start from you and I. Let us maintain the course of peace in all the areas of our daily activities and lives as a whole. Respect the people, the culture, color, race, tradition, religion, views and background. Do not judge by appearance or any of the above reasons.
It is important at this juncture to consider our ideas and thoughts before we throw or blow them out to the world. Some ideas may be more destructive than the weapons of mass destruction or biological or leather weapons. It is better we look before we leap and not to leap before we look.
Wait, what benefit shall it profit our peace individually if we destroy or wreck havoc to some one’s peace? Encourage one another and at same time tell the truth, then we will live in peace and harmony. But if we cannot do all these things,why do we ask why when things go wrong around us?
Above all, the best advice is the one you give to yourself. And of course when you accept good ones too, you have indeed won yourself some credibility. In other word, you can only shape your life the way you want it to be. No wonder the whole world set aside for a man who knows where he’s going.
My friend, do not forget why you are always asking why. Have you ever considered why some people ended up their lives as been hopeless in life? It is very simple, mostly it is because someone or some people threw verbal weapons into their lives thereby caused a total destruction like that of Hiroshima. And at same time, most of them failed to encourage themselves. So they accepted defeat and instead of courage, they keep asking why, why and why kind of questions? You know!
Nevertheless, rise up to the task and keep the world at peace. Your contribution and my contribution will sail the world to a safer destination where there will be no more prejudice, horror, hatred, envy, superiority, war, nepotism and injustice. Let us see ourselves as one family irrespective of religion, color, background, race, beliefs and gender.
Please sit down for a while to ponder over your life and see if you are conform with this standard.
If you are not, it is not too late to adjust. If not, you will always ask why whenever you face any little challenge.
Finally, it is never too late to answer the question – WHY! Surely when we accept and respect others the way they are and the way we want then to accept and respect us too, when we solve our differences peacefully irrespective of what we are, color, race, background, gender, rich or poor with tolerance and we learn how to live together peacefully with dignity, then together we shall stand. But if we refuse to contribute our quotas to the world peace and stability, then why ask why when we face challenges?
Think deeply my friends, the solution is in your hands and my hands. The answer to this ‘WHY’ question lies in our daily decisions, thoughts and practises of peace with other people. Please let us act very fast and save our world from falling down. Now that we have a clue on the answer,why ask why?
