Considering Bad Times Whilst Enjoying Good Times

Humans, sometimes, forget themselves and fail to consider their condition — death — which has come to stay until the second coming of Christ. Enjoy life but consider bad times. Our nature does not last as it should be. We forget our being, when life goes on well. We always forget our condition as dead beings. Good times are characterized by happy moments, and happy moments cause you to forget the bad times ahead of you.

When things go on well in life, we even forget God, who created us. We always enjoy life, when things go well. When humans become rich, we even forget to seek help from God. Enjoyment of life can cause damage to the mind and reason as well. Good life worries less of things around its environment. That is, it does not fret over those around. Enjoying good life may give room to pride, if care is not taken. People forget themselves when they have fun. Sometimes, when you have money to purchase anything you want, you don’t care how much it costs because you have more money.

It is important to consider bad times too. When you have money, sometimes, you don’t mind what is coming. You, sometimes, do things the way you want, whether it’s good or bad. It is interesting that, when some people get money, they don’t respect again. Pride takes the position of their being, and they, sometimes, speak harsh words to those around them. Those who have not experienced bitterness in life pride themselves in what they have; they forget that dark days may be ahead of them.

Nobody in this world will get the opportunity of enjoying only ‘good days’ in his or her life without encountering any seeming misfortune. Life cannot be fair only, so we need to consider the things we do in this world. Life is mixed with good and bad experiences. All things can be ours but all things cannot be yours only; we are in a world of inter-dependence. It is not good enough to enjoy life all alone without helping others who do not have.

Consider when you have what you need and be mindful of how you handle it, because nobody knows which day is a disaster? Enjoy life as you have but consider your movement, because this world cannot be yours forever. Be mindful of all your doings; your life must be beneficial to others. Refresh others and others will refresh you. Be humble, lest you stumble and crumble and lose hope.
