It does not matter how many years you will live. Eventually you will die and it is always not enough. Even though everyone is trying to hide this fact and put it under the rug, trying to avoid death, nobody knows whether he will reach or have a long life, or will be killed in an accident or in a fire or drowning.

On one hand, it is good to not know. Otherwise man would not be able to enjoy anything, produce something or enjoy life. He would always in scarcity that he will die. But between scarcity on the one hand or to avoid enjoying life and to know that there is a lot of work to be done on Earth just for the sake of breathing, the difference is huge.

Most people start their lives with studying the rules of society and also studying a profession. Finding a job in order to be able to survive, creating a family and the run for money - not only in order to survive, but to buy more things, to buy more houses, to be able to compete with society. A bigger house and always wanting stuff, more than we need. So you become a slave and spend more time at work and out of your home.

You are hardly with your family or children, not enjoying anything. You don't find your peace of mind or happiness, only sorrow and complaints, and start to suffer illnesses. If you are able to get to be a senior, you wake up and understand that most of your life has passed. All the money and assets you have achieved do not bring you any happiness. Your body is neglected. The kids have no connection to you. You are very angry and sad and lonely on this Earth. It is nice to have a big house, nothing wrong about that, and to enjoy all the good things that you can get for money. Most people do the same things and are going through the same process.

Now that I understand that facts, I see that my mission is to teach the younger generation, my grandchildren and whoever I meet in my way, to explain that life is much more than just working like a slave.

It is only a matter of priorities and time management. When you decide how much of your time you will dedicate for work or for your family or to be part of your children's lives, have some time to be with yourself to find out what is your mission in life on Earth, what would you like to learn and what would you like to leave spiritually to your children and society.

You need time to take care of your body, which is so delicate: to eat right, to exercise, to nurture the cells of your body in the right way and not to damage them with poison so that the body will be able always to function and to fight any disease.

You also need to dedicate some of your time for the spiritual part, a healthy spirit in a healthy body: to walk in nature, to touch earth, to smell flowers, to watch the flow of the water to the waves of the ocean, to feel part of nature, to have friends and socialize, to have influence and good energy, to make time for everything that is important other than your job and especially to live life consciously in the present and enjoy every minute of it.

2009-06-27 MEDITATION - BEING PART OF NATURE

I just completed my meditation in the bath, as I was walking in my body and thanking all my cells for the wonderful job they are doing and for another good day feeling stronger.I am sitting in my chair, breathing the fresh air coming through the window; looking into the night at the trees, the flowers, and the lights in the streets.

My gaze is concentrated on a tall tree. Green and beautiful, standing upright I can feel I am in that tree, feeling the thrill of the breeze that is moving the leaves. I can feel the birds nest, how they sleep in it. I can feel a miracle. I can be anywhere, to change shape as I want to. I am looking from the top of that tree, overlooking everything. I can feel the mission that this tree has to swallow the gas, absorbing the carbon dioxide CO₂, and to produce the oxygen O₂ that gives life to all creatures around.
