Living From the Suffering of Others
Revealing the story yesterday, after I was in the field area. Now, unlike the previous days, because road access can be opened. So, free time is used to find something interesting from nature, which sometimes looks interesting and unique. It could be, so inspiration and knowledge. Only the people who lived inside the iron fence, could not see the outdoors.
Appears, a large tree growing on the wild grass, green and short. Twigs and branches are very long, indicating that this tree is quite old. The village people named this tree "banyan tree", I also don't know the meaning but maybe this tree is in your environment.
The eyes keep looking towards the tree trunk and something interesting appears. A plant hangs and takes root from the trunk of this large tree. This plant is not a member but can grow and survive.
This plant absorbs food from the tree trunk.
My brain keeps spinning, why can this plant survive? Yes...I understand now, this plant survives because it can absorb food from large trees. It's really interesting, these plants don't bother to get and look for food in the ground but only hope from this big tree.
What about our human lives? Is there anyone who lives from the suffering of others. It's like a big tree that has to work hard to find and get food in the ground but is only grabbed by plants that live and hang.
Sometimes, as humans we only see how magnificent other people's lives are, seen from a big house and so on. But sometimes, other people don't know that they have worked hard and supported other people who incidentally are not their family. So that the factor of theft and robbery often occurs because of seeing the splendor of other people's lives.
Sometimes we have to understand that our lives don't always depend on other people or deprive other people of their right to life, because they also have responsibilities and living costs that may be greater than the living expenses we experience.
=====================================
As much as possible don't live on others people "expenses". Evaluate if what you do is what you can experience, if not ask for grace and may we find the courage to shift gears.
