What is life? Life is a precious gift that, unfortunately, we all take for granted in one way or another. It is easy to forget just how precious it is, how fragile it is, and how short it is. Why do we take advantage of it? It's just one of those bad qualities that we, as human beings and as society as a whole, have. We are naive. We never think that things could really happen to us. To us...? No way! We talk the talk, but we don't walk the walk. We say things like, "live every day like it's your last," and, "life is short, so enjoy it." Unfortunately, most of us don't even take our own advice... At least not until we come close to losing it all... And we ask why God lets bad things happen to good people.
What many people may not understand is that God doesn't MAKE bad things happen... He lets them. Why? Sometimes it's a wake up call. Bad things help us to appreciate the good and appreciate the fragility of life so that we can learn to live without naivety, and rather with a true understanding of just how precious life is, and just how important it is to truly savor the good moments in life.
