A statement and life philosophy which looks straightforward, simple and doable says, “When you want something in life, you just gotta reach and grab it!”. This life philosophy may look tempting, yet it has its own challenges for people from different walks of life. Some people can just reach out and grab what they want, whenever they want. But for some, it may not be possible at all because they may find nothing is at their disposal. Some of the factors that can impact or affect this life philosophy are the age factor, the economic factor, power factors, context and situations where one is.
We may use religious philosophies
which suggest, to keep a check on our desires and wants, to avoid regrets and
disappointments. Unfortunately, life isn't that easy. And that means the
philosophy that suggests, to reach and grab if we want something is complex in
itself. To a large extent, it cannot operate on its own but needs different
components and factors to make it possible. The ‘means’ can be positive or
negative. It all depends on what one wants to acquire.
The Bible says. “But a
noble person plans noble things; he stands up for noble causes.”. The
noble person wants are noble, his/her plans are noble, and most importantly
this person ensures not to violate the right of others for what he/she wants
and wishes to acquire. What you imagine to have may look so near to you. But it
depends what are the means you are going to use to achieve it. Your approaches
can be non-violence, genuineness, honesty, to get the things that you want. At
the same time some may manipulate, be dishonest to achieve and grab things to
gratify themselves.
In the phases of life, the need to
complete the education, find a suitable job, have a desired successful career,
own a house and a vehicle can all be a need and with dedication, sincerity and
hard work, one can achieve in time. But usually the wants are unsatisfying and
constantly multiply till one dies. There can be a great vacuum in all the
achievements itself. The need of the soul can create a deep hunger to acquire
and achieve many things that one imagines and desires, but ultimately it can be
satisfied only by Christ the Savior who alters our hunger preferences. Jesus
stated this powerful statement which says, “No one who comes to me
will ever be hungry, and no one who believes in me will ever be thirsty
again.”. And that means one will remain in the perfect
state of contentment. Without having the Savior in your heart, your life will
be incomplete. A simple expression of prayer will transform your life
completely.
