Searching for answers



                 Searching for answers. That's life. I've been always captivated to the nature and behavior of people. The inconsolable harshness of nature and resilience to accept the condition that we are meek creatures. We are not immortals on the face of the earth, but our souls are! Every step we take brings us a mile closer to our grave. Many think we cease to exist at death. But there lies hidden and unfathomable truth. There is a spirit world that even human minds can't comprehend.
                The vastness of the galaxy tempts us to find other life forms on other planets throughout our universe (which I doubt). This burning desire pushes us to go beyond our home to the very brink of the Universe. Each time we push our limits higher we are nullified by the ever-growing size of the space. Concepts emerge and boggle our mind every now and then. Finally we come to a bizarre conclusion that life is meaningless!
                Life in itself is meaningless! unless someone or something gives it a meaning. People make themselves occupied in a frail attempt to empty the void in their soul. This lack of satisfaction and acceptance caused some to take disastrous decisions that has changed the course of human history. One of the greatest example may be Hitler. Throughout his life he waged a war in his mind between finding the truth and closing the void.
                What followed next was one of the most devastating and brutal dictatorship in the history of the world. He butchered Jews in tens upon thousands. Yet he did not find his satisfaction. He became ambitious and formulated to acquire the whole world in a desperate measure to peace of mind.
                I found a man, a Jew, a God, the God and the creator. He gave me a totem to keep for myself as a sign that he lives. That charm which many have not received. This totem has two faces like that of a coin. Peace on one and eternal life on the other.
