In Good Faith!

It is impossible to go back and change anything… and stop the ripple effect each of our action has. We call this non changing ability of an action fate.

Fate is not something that is a thing to happen in the future alone and on it’s own. It is that action we are taking and its ripple effects that we would see. And if you would like to see a fate in a certain way, then you need to be very mindful of not only major, but every small and minor actions of yours. Because even the smallest of our action leads to fate.

And though it is never possible or even practical for us to have all the what ifs with every action we take, and not even something we should care about… be assured they will have a say on our fate… whether we like it or not.

I went out and this time took a new street to experience it. Bang someone shot me dead. Before this day, I had for the past 19 years took the same route and had safely reached home. Today this one action led me to my death.

Would you say, I should have stayed on the same route and not entertained that thought. Or would you say answering that cell when it is already banned my fault that caused me my death.

True both these very actions led to it. But we need to consider, our intention in both these cases was not to cause us harm. We took a chance or went with an idea… in good faith, and even then it got us into trouble.

So. We may think we can’t be saved trouble even if we do things in good faith. And the answer is yes we can’t be.

Why something happens, even though that is not our intention or our desire or wish and when there are so many other plausible possibilities. Why does it still then happen?

I don’t have that answer. Probably this is the only question no one will ever be able to answer. But if I were to find peace, I would stop asking why! I would just accept it and move on …

In Good faith!

Difficult, but it is what it is.

But if you knew one action of yours could lead you to heaven. And if you wanted to be in heaven, would you not do it?

And you also knew one action would lead to hell. Would you not then try to avoid it?

Ideally we would, if we had faith that this action can lead there and heaven does exist.

But if we look in this world, every mishap teaches us something about what to do and what not to do.

Don’t check cell messages while driving to avoid accident like the recent one. Or stay safe as much as you can. Or don’t be too carefree with dogs and babies for long hours. Or don’t do to others what you don”t wish to be done to you

And we avoid these signs by either not believing them or even after believing them, not taking the warning seriously.

And bring trouble to ourselves… and when it comes, we cry.

Tomorrow as you go into this world I hope you:

1- Move on in good faith when something bad happens where you couldn't help it, because that is the only way you will ever find peace with it.

2- Avoid those mistakes or take up those actions which you believe will harm you or benefit you respectively.

Happy Fate!
