Existence, Vision, and Decision

This post is just another point of my previous one about life and living. It is also taken from the moment when I was first join at the company and the group I am working for now. This topic is also interesting me so I have to write then I can share to the people (who wants to read and comments) about this. Even it happened a year ago, it still remains an emotionally touch about existence, vision, and decision.

Existence

First is about existence. As a human itself, we have many social networking in our life as a social creature. That networking brings us to a community, club, group, company, party, and so many other terms for it. As we are being a part of the network, we are claimed to be exist. We need to be exist so another part of network may pay attention to us that we are exist. It doesn’t matter how  the way it is to be exist, it’s more about how we can attract any other part of network since it’s the value of communication. If this component (existence)  is able to be appeared, the first rule of being part of networking is passed.

Vision

Next is about vision. Existence will bring us to another step, vision. As mentioned before that existence is related to communication and releasing a statement, the people around us may have an opinion that we have a vision as the consequence of being exist. Vision to a solution will be valuable as it is feasible to be implemented. This step may take us to another higher level instead of just being exist.  At this part our vision can strengthen the existence. So far, those two parts are related and connected to each other.

Decision

The last but not least is about Decision. This is the step where we choose a decision. So we are brave and proud to say that this is because I choose to be not because I have to be. It seems difficult for many people when they are facing about making decision. But however, the chosen decision based on the sounds of our heart is the best decision that ever been chosen. It’s a gift and already built in since the human being was first time created by THE MOST CREATOR. The sounds of our heart maybe unheard but it’s actually uncared, the matter is how clearly we hear that. It may be clear and it may be noisy depends on how big is the barrier hindering it.

As I can take the value of this topic is that existence, vision, and decision are the components that can’t be apart. They are connected as a circle and keep moving forward so it is strengthening to each other, in my physical imagination it is figured as a spiral – the circle that moving forward. At the front and back side(two dimensionally), it is seemed as a circle, and at the left and right side (another side of two dimensionally) it seemed as connected lines. So, if it is seen three dimensionally, it will be seemed as a spiral that moving forward in scope of time. As time moving forward, the enhancement of existence may and should produce a better vision and the right decision will be chosen. Being perfect is not the point to be achieved, but the matter is how hard is the struggle to fix the hole as we can learn from yesterday (read: history) and behaving optimism for tomorrow.

What is written above maybe my opinion about this topic in my own way. But for anyone who has another opinion and comments, that will be fine as the difference of way of thinking is a gift that is given to all of us so we may be grateful and realize how special we are. We are being exist because of the statement, so the vision will be seemed, and the decision may be appreciated.

LIfe and Living

First of all I have to thank to ALLAH SWT..My GOD..My Sweet Lord..The Greatest of All, Mr. IT, Sis. IF, and Ed who took me to the right time and the right place when this “lecture” took place. I think it is such a good thing that I have to write here just to share to everyone who (wants to) read it and especially for me as reason how to find the value of my life and living.

It was about a year ago when I first joined in the group at the company I work for. Sis. IF took Ed and me to see around the people who are connected and related to our business process. I can only remember few people who was introduced to me by  her, but for me that’s not the point, I think that was the moment when I could learn how the business run in my group and this company. Until at the end of our “journey”, she took us to see Mr. IT’s room and started to talk about life and living.

He was so familiar and very welcome to us. At the beginning, he thought that we were going to talk about some jobs or else, but Sis. IF told him that she took Ed and me just to see around the people and need some “lecture” from him for us as the new entry. Actually there are three points that he told us that I can remember until now:

·         Life and Living

·         Ego and Super Ego

·         Existence, Vision, and Decision

In this part, I only write about the first one. And for the others will be written soon (as it’s still reminded) at the other posts.

DIfferentiation of Life and Living

I was a little bit confused when he asked me about life and living. It sounded the same to me; it was just about how to pronounce them which one was suitable to the situation at that time I thought.   As he told us and surprised me, life is more about how do you want it ends? And living is more about how do you run your life. Which one do we have to start first…? Decide your life and then your living will follow how it runs to achieve that.  He gave me Mozart’s life as an example. Mozart is a great symphony’s composer; he created so many masterpieces and achieved so many awards from his creation. But he ended his life tragically he hadn’t any funds just even for his funeral. As we can see, there are some people who have a good life but not about the living or vice versa, ideally both (life and living) are in a good way.

This session realized me to decide how my life wants to be ended, because everyone must return to GOD and will be asked for his/her responsibility at the judgment day about every single little thing have been done in time of life. It was so interesting to me so I hadn’t much time to scratch my pen and write it in my book. Everyone should have decided their life, the problem is how about the living..?? Even living follows the life, but a bad living will takes the life into a bad way too.

As I can conclude (meanwhile), life and living are the two components which connected and related in reason- and-impact’s things. The decision for our life will take us how to run it as reflected in living. The living can take us closer or even further to the target that has been decided.  Life for a living or living for a life. Start from the back, how we want to end this life.
