It's already a new year.. 2014!
Have any plan about your journey in this year? Are you excited to greet this year?
“There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.” ― Albert Einstein
Just read this Einstein Quote. Every path of our life is a journey but .. Is every journey a miracle ? Or just an ordinary path, routine and even boring, no meaning at all?
King Salomo in Ecclesiates have said:
What has been will be again,
What has been done will be done again;
There is nothing new under the sun.
You may see the sun in my Soekarno-Hatta picture. Is it a new sun? Of course not! It's the same sun as the previous years. Nothing new at all. The sun rises and the sun goes down, and hastens to the place where it rises. The thing that has been; it is what will be again, and that which has been done is that which will be done again; and there is nothing new under the sun.
Then, I applied my mind to study and to explore by wisdom all that is done under the sun. Where is the enjoyment of human mankind in every journey, that he or she plan? I have seen all the works that are done under the sun, and behold, all is vanity, a striving after the wind and a feeding on wind.
All is vanity! Remember in our heart, dear of my friends - all works that are done under the sun - all is vanity! Meaningless! Everything is meaningless.
Except ..
There is a new meaning from above the sun. New Enjoyment if we remember our Creator and fear of Him. This is a paradox of our journey. Enjoyment must be linked to the Fear. Fear of the Lord is the beginning of the wisdom, isn't it?
So journey under the sun must be connected to the above of the sun.
He has also set eternity in the human heart; yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end. I know that there is nothing better for people than to be happy and to do good while they live. That each of them may eat and drink, and find satisfaction in all their toil—this is the gift of God. (King Salomo)
