Be the hope

Hola and Hello

In this blog post, I'm talking about a quote I found on the internet. 

The quote:

If everything around you seems Dark,

Look again, 

you may be the Light

-RUMI

I've always appreciated Rumi's quotes. They are always meaningful though some of them might seem meaningless at the first look.

There are times in life when everything would seem miserable. We would just be so desperate to get out of the situation. It's like we're trapped in it. If we consider 'it' to be a place and we are trapped, it means we see no way out. We don't see a way out when it is completely dark. The human eye can't function to see in the darkness. That is a limitation in our life. 

This may be how we can refer to situations which aren't easy to handle as dark. But even then, it is just difficult to handle and not impossible to handle. There aren't impossible things which we are burdened to handle. 

When life seems difficult and we lose all hope, its all dark and what we need is some light. We have to look closer and we might find ourselves as the light. This light we are reffering to can mean hope, confidence and such things. We need to hope that we can one day overcome this situation and one day the misery will end because nothing lasts forever. Life is a cycle. Nothing might last forever but things might happen again and by that I mean Problems. 

We have to believe ourselves and we have to trust ourselves because if we don't,  who will? According to Mahatma Gandhi, We have to be the change we want to see in the world. We need to be the light, we need to be the hope. 

We are in a dark place and we need light to get out. We get light and we use that light to get out. Rumi says if we can't find the light, look closer and then we might find ourselves as the light. It was always us. If we decide or if we have the heart to be the light, we can be the light and we were always the light. We just have to identify and accept it. We might think we're a nobody. That is not true. If you don't agree with me, think it this way: A nobody is a nobody. Atleast we're a nobody. There is nothing such as nothing. Doesn't make sense right? 

Life doesn't make sense at all. That is one thing 13 years in this planet have taught me. I love you my readers. I'd appreciate if you'll leave a comment. Think about the quote this day. You'll see wonderful things you never have. I'm leaving another quote by Rumi for you

What you seek is seeking you
