God made everything out of nothing, but the nothingness shows through By: Unknown No comments

Nothingness in life means Everything!

"I am happy to be reminded that an ordinary day full of nothing but nothingness can make you feel like you've won the lottery." -Susan Orlean

"God made everything out of nothing, but the nothingness shows through." -Paul Valery


While I am eating, this thought sinks into my mind:

God was and is always with us. 

Other people thought that my grandfather and my grandmother won't be able to support and raise their children, just because "those judgemental people" thought that my grandparents have nothing in life but just a farmer. Some people thought that my grandparents won't be able to send their children to school. But that was just what they thought--having a narrow-minded and judging other people's credibility will eat their words back. 

Some people thought we won't be able to come to CANADA! You know when other people turns or puts you down just because they thought you just CAN'T and that they thought, you don't have enough SOURCES! But see how those people can say anything they want to you because they know that your life is moving upward--that you are succeeding something in life. What they don't know is that of course no matter what--we have GOD! It's just so disappointing when people are trying to question of what you are capable of doing. 

Some people belittle, judge you, or puts you down because "I think that they are some people who are angry or not happy with the way things are going in their lives, and they get irritated when they see someone who is happy, and they want to lash out at them and bring them down. Unfortunately, I don't know if it's jealousy or anger or resentment, that some people want to do that to others". (GORDON). Or they lash you out maybe because they don't want you to succeed or be above of them.


Overall, I am thankful that I have had experienced the "life of nothingness" because I have come to believe that whatever my roots have had cultivated, brought up to where my families and I are in now. I do know how to understand when I have nothing. I am thankful and appreciate with whatever I have at the present moment. I believe that whatever we have in life is just for contemporary and it's not going to stick it all around us. Whatever Zens we have is not meant forever, but what's forever within us is how we treasured the life that God has given us. I am thankful that I am experiencing the hurdles of life. We're all experiencing harships and struggles in life, and we never know when it'll be going to resolve. We complained a lot--it's okay (part of life). On the other hand we have to treasure them, and without these challenges, we never know where we're going. And think of it, there are other people out there who maybe are in full of predicaments than what we are experiencing right now. 



It's good to explore the nothingness and stepping into the unknown of life.
