“We have taken life for granted. We do not take life as a blessing. We are not thankful for life. Life is God's gift to us. Once we understand this, we start thinking about life in a different way. When life is a blessing, joy is born. From this moment start looking at everything as a blessing. Even if you sometimes feel pain, see it as a blessing. Take ups and downs in life for granted. You may not understand, but this is a blessing. One day you will understand that it was a blessing. You will understand that it was needed, and that it helped your growth. Even suffering is a blessing. It helps you to become integrated.It takes childishness away from you, and it helps you to mature. A person who has never suffered remains childish, superficial. He can't understand life's deeper things. The man who has suffered becomes mature. He can understand the depth of life, and he can see other people's life with more love, understanding and compassion. That makes him more human. Try to find a blessing everywhere. Sometimes it is a blessing in disguise. But if you can watch, you will find it. It is always there :in success, failure, love, aloneness, pain, suffering, life and in death, too. It is there in summer and winter, in childhood andold age and in health and sickness. A person is really religious, who can see blessings everywhere.”
