Will You Survive?

The Most Perplexing Questions In Life…

Sometimes it helps going to places…where there’s only me and myself. I can step back a bit and look at life from a wider perspective. It clears up my mind from the complications and chaos of the fast-paced city living.

The Most Perplexing Questions In Life...

The last time I did that, I came up with the following questions…perhaps the most perplexing ones that I would like to ask myself. For most of them, I already figured out the answer. But for the rest, they are still lingering in my head. Some of them just pop up when the situation calls for it.

Perhaps you can help me come up with some plausible resolutions…for all the following twenty questions I got….Chances are, they are also the very questions that have been bothering you since you stepped into the cruel realm called ‘world.’ Well, let’s see if we are into the same frequency.

My Twenty Most Perplexing Questions:

1. What else is there?    
2. What do you really value in life?      
3. What makes you happy?  
4. What makes your family happy?  
5. Does that make your Creator’s heart rejoice? 
6. Are you making full use of the world?  
7. What’s the best for your family?       
8. What’s bothering you?  
9. What have you done for your Creator lately?    
10. What do your motivations reveal?       
11. What do your goals include?    
12. What do your choices tell about you as a person?       
13. Will you stay, or will you go? 
14. Will you accept, or will you pass up?  
15. Will you do it now, or later?  
16. Will you say it or hold it back?       
17. Will you go there, or stay put?
18. Will you go the long way, or cut it off?       
19. Are you living your life the way the world does?       
20. What does the future hold for us? 

 I’m confident that it won’t take long before I finally figure out what I really want in this world. After all, I am not supposed to use it to its fullest, or else it will do the same to me. All of us keep asking questions, questions that seem to haunt us at one point or another. Little do we know that ALL these questions got answers(well, at least, that’s what I believe)…only if we embark a journey to find them out. Be open and critical. Who knows, the answers to your most perplexing questions is right within grasp….But if you can’t find them, be optimistic. Pray incessantly and it will be answered. If not now, certainly in the near future….

    Wow, this is classic Francis. I remember listening to one of my favorite speakers, and he posed some of the questions you listed. One of the ‘remedies’ he mentioned was to look at appreciation and application. We realize how precious life, time and relationships are, but it is how we act upon our daily struggles that bring us closer to the truth. Stay strong Francis. Keep up the good work.

  2. Hi Kuya Jo. Kumusta na? You need to tell me more about that appreciation and application especially the latter. Hope to hear from you soon….
