Under the Sun of Human Nature
How years pass quickly as 32 years already have passed since I was born on planet Earth yet during my whole life, I was – and still – trying to explore the complexity of human nature in order to understand better and thus fulfilling a very basic need of mine; the knowledge need. For that matter, after finishing the first phase of my wanderings in wonderland of human nature, here is the 2nd phase where I wonder about the ways people walk-through to book a place under the sun.

Under the Sun of Human Nature
It is normal and important that people are running to seize their own chance according to the human nature for taking a place under the sun but the question is simply what about the way to get book this place?
It is usually easy to take the illegal short-cuts in order to achieve whatever goals where this attitude seems fruitful on the short run, especially if the person convinced himself or herself that this is the right way since others do so.
At the first glance, maybe this is right but my simple question: is it true on the long run? I think definitely it is not because what happens is not convincing the but rather deceiving oneself in the first place and this way might lead not only to destroying person’s life but others’ too!
In my perspective, we are supposed to reach for achieving our own balance with the context surrounding us, either the physiological environment or the psychological one and this balance occurs when we act in the right way both with the omnipotent universal power Almighty Allah (swt) – GOD – and people like us. This is the way that helps us in achieving harmony that creates the balance which we need in order to bear living in this life and have our healthy place under the sun.
On the other hand, in case of acting wrong by taking the illegal ways to achieve things, we are sadly destroying such balance. In other words, this simply means that the absence of harmony paves the way for catastrophic problems to exist not merely for us but mainly for others too since we are living in a community. Nevertheless, no body can claim that problems will completely disappear if the balance occurs; Nah! As everybody has his (and her) personal problems but there are normal problems that can be solved while others that are catastrophic and the last always occurs by our own hands while trying to book a place under the sun.
Nowadays, the call for virtues seems a silly one for some people, and for others it is legacy enough to be placed in museums but it is not; it is the core of healthy human interaction if anybody still cares about this while trying to book his or her place under the sun. Moreover, I am aware that Utopia does not – and shall not – exist on planet Earth as I usually say; however since we live life once, it is worthy to take care about what we do especially that it paves the path to the eternal life in the hereafter and this cannot be achieved unless our human intellect is implemented through rational way of thinking that understand other people.
In a nutshell, we are usually advised to that it is wrong to stay under the sun for a long time without any protection, hence I mentioned the sun block in this blog entry!

Hmmm… you have your point. Being good and bad is a balance that normally comes to people. Nice pic you’ve got… I feel in love with it.

Hello, my Pharaonic friend.
I believe you are talking about karma, the rebounding energy that says if you give out the bad, you will receive the bad in return. It is not always a direct retaliation, which is why people do not notice.
But it happens all the time: you do wrong here and other things in your life start going terribly wrong.
Lovely blog and glad to see that, like me, you are also on Afrigator!

Yes Denford, and furthermore the closer you are to a perfected being, the sooner your karma is tangibly experienced.

Being someone who does what is right, not what is easy or convenient, will always be the right way to live.

@Madeleine: I totally agree,Madeleine. That’s why life is not that easy yet what’s right should be done.

I don’t know why, but while i was reading the post i kept recalling the meaning of one of our prophet’s sayings, if you tend to find agreement and love from your fellow humans and disobey your creator, then you lose it all, but when you put Allah’s approval on your actions up sight “doing the right things with no short cuts” even if this will drive people away, eventually you will win it all. Allah’s love, blessings and mercy, and he will turn people’s hearts towards you.
It might not be related awy, but it always made a difference with me when i recall it.
