This game is hosted by Vinitha Dileep,
on her blog 'Reflections' and
I discovered it on Esha's blog. This time the word prompt is
'SACRIFICE'.
| Dalai Lama's quote |
I discovered this interesting Dalai Lama’s quote.
I suppose if such a personality felt it necessary to share it in this way, it seems
to me that it sounded like an alarm about the way people live and think.
A life centered on sacrifice? What kind of sacrifices are we really talking about?
And what kind of perspective do we have on them?
We don't really interpret in the key mentioned by the famous spiritual leader,
at least from my point of view. And what does a change of perspective on this idea really means?
The most important ‘wealth’ we have at the present moment, it’s our own life.
Only us we live it and no one else. And we are responsible for the decisions
we make. No matter how many people say this and there are many, the moment
in which we begin to really perceive it, it usually comes in a crucial one.
Why so? I have no idea! I suppose everyone has a reason!
And definitely the time comes! But it seems to me that it is worth clarifying
our ideas and perspectives when we have to sacrifice a part of our lives.
Let's do it with full knowledge of the case. Let's evaluate the possible effects.
After all, only life belongs to us, nothing else. It's worth not to forget.
Am descoperit acest citat interesant apartinand lui Dalai Lama.
Presupun ca daca o astfel de personalitate a simtit ca trebuie sa-l expuna
in felul acesta, mi se pare ca a tras un semnal de alarma privind modul cum
oamenii traiesc si gandesc.
O viata centrata pe sacrificiu? Insa despre ce fel de sacrificii vorbim de fapt?
Si ce fel de perspectiva avem asupra lor? Nu prea interpretam in cheia amintita de celebrul lider spiritual, cel putin din punctul meu de vedere.
Si ce inseamna in fond o schimbare de perspectiva privind aceasta idee?
Cea mai importanta ‘avere’ pe care o avem la dispozitie in momentul prezent, este propria viata. Doar noi ne-o traim si nimeni altcineva.
Si suntem raspunzatori pentru deciziile pe care le luam.
Oricati oameni ar enunta aceasta idee si sunt multi, momentul in care incepem sa o percepem cu adevarat, vine deobicei intr-unul de cotitura.
De ce asa? Habar nu am! Cred fiecare are cate un motiv!
Dar cu certitudine momentul soseste!
Mi se pare insa ca merita sa ne clarificam ideile si perspectivele cand e vorba
sa sacrificam ceva din viata noastra. Sa o facem in cunostinta de cauza.
Sa evaluam efectele posibile.
La urma urmei, doar viata ne apartine, nimic altceva. Merita sa nu uitam…
