the light....

Day in day out,the sun rises and sets. Our world mirrors the bright orange ball, glowing and slowly fading into darkness in an everlasting circle of highs and lows.

Light is everywhere to be seen. And even in the brightness, we find ourselves lost.

How could this be possible? Are we blinded by the bright world and its richness?Has the full array left our minds boggled and frayed? Are we too tired of accepting that we choose to block out what awaits us out there?

This question's been bugging me throughout the day. It's all about choice. Man was given the freedom of choice. A freedom that is itself caged within rules and regulations of how that choice is made(in other words, we don't have much of a choice as to what we can or cannot choose.)And these rules, be it those made by men or by God, govern the way we live and think. Some of us make an attempt at being radical by breaking these rules. But at what expense? Who knows. But the thing that's bugging me is not the breaking of these, but rather the hinting to which choice is "right" and which is "wrong". the Almighty has dropped lots of hints by which we are to see his greatness.

In the air,the land, the sea. Everywhere we look, if we look close enough, we'd be able to see silent testiments to His greatness. within our hands, our actions;within our hearts.

Constantly does He coax us to amend our ways and return to His path of goodness. And yet, we still find ourselves lost. How is this so? How have we gotten ourselves lost within the light that floats above our paths? It's like getting ourselves confused within a room flooded with lights. A room that is so bright that we couldn't possibly see or find our way out of it.God has shown us the way time and again. With each passing day, he drops hints around us. In the trees, the wind; the silence of the night decorated with the chirping of the crickets. All of them, testiment to His power.

If we only look closely enough and ponder over it for a short time. We might see the light;the light that is all around us. It is within us. Deep in our hearts echoes his words;his song.

And yet,we are lost. Lost in the light that paves our way.
