We all are aware that when we take a flight, the take off is completely beyond us We do nothing about the take off, it’s completely in the hands of the pilot. When it comes to landing, it’s still beyond our control. The turbulence during the flight is also completely beyond us. The wind speed is beyond us, when the plane passes through the clouds and the entire plane becomes wobbly, it’s not in our control.
What is in our control during the flight is our choice.
Some people choose to just go to sleep, some watch movies, yet others make new friends talk to others and network. So it is what to do during the journey is in our control.
In the journey of life as well, the take off which is our birth, is completely beyond our control. We didn’t choose which nation we were born in, we didn’t choose which city we were born in, we didn’t choose our looks. So in the journey of life, the take off is beyond our control as well. When landing which is death, that as well is beyond our control.
Sometimes you hear people say they want a simple death, like having a heart attach and dropping dead at once. So no trouble for them, no needles, no trouble caused to others.
The simple and honest truth is that no matter how much we might wish that, it is just beyond us.
Remember the turbulence which is the disturbance, problems, challenges during the journey of our ?
Some of them are our control which we can solve, but many problems and issues and turbulence caused is completely beyond our control because it’s caused by situation which are beyond us. It’s caused by people who are beyond us.
So everyone, our birth and our death is not in our control. What is in our control however is the choice we can make.
It is said that when our life is beautiful it’s God’s gift to us, when we live our lives beautiful it’s our gift to God. Therefore being a male is a matter of birth, being a man is a matter of age and being a gentleman is a matter of choice. And as a corollary to that, being a female is a matter of birth, being a woman is a matter of age, being a gentlewoman is a matter of choice.
