Our Daily Life
We wake up, and do our daily routine, either go brush our teeth & shower, eat breakfast, do yoga, pray or meditate, read the Bible/Sutra/Gita/Koran or whatever you read, and prepare for our day. Breathing, seeing, walking, talking, living life.
We feel thankful for all these beautiful things, well at least I hope you feel thankful for these simple things, that not all people can enjoy on their daily basis. Some people cannot walk, talk, see or are breathing in a coma at this precise moment. At this precise moment someone is starving having no food or water or even shelter. Some people from other Countries would look at us like Kings and Queens because of all the luxury we have like food, water, shelter and clothes, even if its a 1 bedroom apartment it is consider a luxury for someone that has nothing.
What do we hope for? Some hope for a good day today, a stress-free day, a temptation-free day, an easy commute to work, I hope for a promotion at work, or whatever the case may be. We hope for simple and surface things. Some people suffer from issues that we bring upon our selves, like anger, hate, lack of patience, insecurity, fear, lust etc. All these problems are in our heads!
I ask myself, do we really have problems?
If we would live in a different country without the “luxuries” that we currenlty have for at least a year, and then come back to our home which for me would be the US, would we even think about problems the same way anymore? I don’t think so.
Our problems are small compared to one that struggles to have food, water, shelter or fights to stay alive and not get killed or raped by rebels from the village. I don’t know why I decided to write this, this morning, but I guess it was to show me that I have no problems, compared to the problems out there. Yes, I struggle as a man, as a human, as a person that is trying to walk the good path, the holy path, the compassionate path. I continue to walk this path, not to have people look at me and say “Wow that is a good guy,” NO! I can care less of what people think about me, I don’t need brownie points, that worths nothing. I do it so I can be an example in this world, so I can spread the hope, the love, the peace that no one cares to spread these days. Most people live for money, power and the self, they do not care for their neighbor, their brother their sister.
With this blog I try to spread some kind of help to people that seek and walk the good path. I am not here to promote religion, and if I did, then I might of also promote the “Mets,” but that is just a baseball team. I guess its like I am promoting the baseball game not the team. The game is the path (the Way) the team is the religion, the team doesn’t matter, you can be in any team, but the important part is that you play and love the game.
But the most important part of life is, that we help each other out. Help with a smile to your neighbor, help by holding the door for someone, help someone lift some bags up the stairs, give an encouraging message to someone, give some food out or share your food with someone, give something out for free. 
The ultimate law is love. So spread love to everybody you come across, its the Universal Law.
So in our daily life, let us NOT concentrate on our small issues, on our small problems, but rather concentrate on being awake to help others, keep your eyes, open, your ears attentive to help someone today, tomorrow, forever.
Remember its not about Me, Me, Me, its about the people around us. Be a light to everyone around you, lend a helping hand.
We hope for this day to be a good day.
