There are NO accidents!

From the fall every leaf to the birth of every being; there are no accidents!

Every person we meet, every breath we take, and every sip of water we drink are no accidents!

How I wish I could convince everyone to understand this; how I wish I could tell everyone that if they believed, they’d lived a happier life, but it seems that I can’t find out the way. The hard part is that if you even don’t believe, you’ll live a life and breathe as everyone else does!

Albert Einstein once said: “There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.”

He was right and will always be!

It’s only the way we view things that has to be changed; the way we think; the way we perceive!

I love these conversations from the movie ‘Kung Fu Panda’:

Oogway: My friend, the panda will never fulfill his destiny, nor you until you let go of the illusion of control. 
Shifu: Illusion? 
Oogway: Yes. 

[points at peach tree] 
Oogway: Look at this tree, Shifu: I cannot make it blossom when it suits me nor make it bear fruit before its time. 
Shifu: But there are things we ‘can’ control: I can control when the fruit will fall, I can control where to plant the seed: that is no illusion, Master! 
Oogway: Ah, yes. But no matter what you do, that seed will grow to be a peach tree. You may wish for an apple or an orange, but you will get a peach. 
Shifu: But a peach cannot defeat Tai Lung! 
Oogway: Maybe it can, if you are willing to guide, to nurture it, to *believe* in it. 
Shifu: But how? How? I need your help, master. 
Oogway: No, you just need to believe. Promise me, Shifu, promise me you will believe.

Oogway: [walking towards Po] Ah! I see that you have found the Sacred Peach Tree of Heavenly Wisdom! 
Po: [Po turns around with a lot of peaches stuffed in his mouth] Oh! Is that what this is? I'm so sorry! I just thought it was a regular peach tree! 

Shifu: But who? Who is worthy to be trusted with the secret to limitless power? To become the Dragon Warrior? 
Oogway: I don't know. 

Po: Maybe I should just quit and go back to making noodles. 
Oogway: Quit, don't quit? Noodles, don't noodles? You are too concerned about what was and what will be. There is a saying: yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. That is why it is called the "present." 

The ‘present’!!!  The ‘time’!!! … How fast it flies!!!

I guess our time is too short not to believe. It often reminds me of a Persian pop singer named Reza Sadeghi who says: "بعضی وقتها خیلی زود دیر میشه!" which translates: “Sometimes it gets too late too soon!” :) .

I want to think why it is hard for some people to believe. Maybe they think if they believed there would be better ways, better options, better choices that they could lose; but … there are no better choices as long as we don’t believe in them! It’s us who make the option best; it’s us who make the way best; it’s us who make the choice best, and this happens when we believe.

How I wish I could convince them to understand this!

How I wish…
