Life, everyone has their own meaning for expressing what they think for life. For me.....I think it's a gift from God and our parents that we are in this world breathing seeing talking thinking expressing ourselves.
Can we see air, no' right...yet we breath unconsciously consciously subconsciously without any intervention from ourselves, as it goes for God too, we can't see them still they are always there to guide up in life from any source of mean in the form of a friend parents teacher or even enemy and family etc. whatever we think or do or believe is already written in books of God. For a second considered the world in a stage of drama theatre where we have to perform our lines and words have been written in the act similarly we are performing in our life every word we speak or every act we do is already known by God. And the feeling that we possess for performing any act is added to our Karma, sinful or joyful or any other feeling that being possessed at that moment is added to the Karma of ours which are written by God accountant for each individual. If God wants to show their grace to you, he can show you 30 years in the future what you will be like at them but for understanding it one should have the eye to understand it. Keep your mind and heart open to understand the language of God and the sign that they provide, though it's difficult but one should try to see it.
I have witnessed one of such acts from God, when I was 7 I saw my pic of 35 years of age. Impossible right yet I know what I seen.
No one knows what lies after death... I believe God grants this wish to everyone for the rest of their soul, though the family members and friends hate God at that moment that they took their loved one away, but there are a million more unknown reasons bad or good from the God side to perform search acts.
In Geeta everyone every character had the Karma of last birth else then Duryodhan to be displayed in notes but Duryodhan died such death because of his intentions of sinful acts, so my means to say is simple, be devoted to the God because even the Richest person in this earth have no idea what is going to be tomorrow whether he is gonna live or die he don't know this. God knows you and your act till your death before even of your birth so be thankful to them. past is our set of believe that we display in our current act, so if you want to change your past just change your set of believe.
Life is beyond life is beautiful life is love life is hate life have it own rules for each individual and everyone rules are different from each other.
Be kind be loving for elder for animals for needful.
