Life is a Struggle

Life is a struggle. With age, the struggles get more challenging and more numerous while the ability to cope falters. One thing is sure. This physical life is a journey with a beginning and an inevitable end.

Is there anything else after we each reach the end of this journey, other than returning the material components we have borrowed from the earth back to earth — to be provided for other life forms to start their ending journeys?

The Persian prophet Baha’u’llah says that after we finish our stint in this physical realm, our true essence — our soul — enters the INFINITE spiritual worlds of God. Infinite? Infinity is a mathematical postulate. We wonder if everything must have an end, no matter how huge.

Yet, science has already established that infinity is reality. For one, the universe is infinite and continually expanding. Think about that.

So over 150 years ago, when Baha’u’llah, a Persian prophet, told us about infinity, he was not just using hyperbole. The worlds of God, as unfathomable to us as it sounds, are indeed infinite. And we are headed that way.

No matter what we do, we will be done here. Is it not wise to go with the belief that Baha’u’llah is right? We will arrive at a new home, and we should prepare ourselves best to be suited for it. Betting against what Baha’u’llah says is a guaranteed loss while listening to him could be true, and we do not lose anything?

As for me, I am a lone ranger, a maverick. I believe in the First Amendment and the freedom of the press. To me, freedom means just that, freedom. Not only do I select what I report, but I also pass judgment freely.
