How do you see the world

How do you see the world?

      Everyone has a personal set of beliefs and values that they use to make sense of the world. In my opinion from the birth till our death, we go through unlimited experiences in our life, these experiences start the moment we become conscious and start understanding the difference between right and wrong. A general perception about life differs from person to person .How people live their life specifies how they see the world; however some people live their life for the sake of others, they live to help the humanity and help the needy ones. We can take the example of Mother Teresa, Abdul Sattar Edhi and who had made it their lives mission to help the others. Every person has its own point of view, but what I believe is that a person should not be bound to any social standard rather they should discover the essence of the universe themselves.

     I think a person without principles or rules is nothing in this world, because principles are the core part of any one’s life. For example if I trust someone and he/she is breaking that trust then, I shall never trust that person again, so these are the things which allow me to see the world with my perspective.

      How I decided to believe in things, this process started from the moment I started walking on my own, being a child it was the first time I trusted my parents because I knew they will not let me fall and they will be there for me if I fail. So I have observed that people shape their beliefs according their perception and their knowledge about a particular subject. With the passage of time and as a person  I have experienced different events which have changed my perception and  thoughts, I have experienced lots of things which made me realize that, I should be like this and I should not be like this. We treat different people  differently, because our understanding of each one of them differs, and deciding on what we believe is totally based upon our own observations through experiences, suppose if I observe that every morning the sun rises and at the end of the day  it sets, likewise if someone tells me that if he or she add salt in the water and it tastes salty,  I will agree with that person because that is what I have observed myself, therefore belief is the reflection of one’s own observations and thoughts incorporated by others.

     There are many things that I have observed, in our society wealthy people or people with power show the dominance over others. They treat them like common beasts of labor and the concept of inequality and racism are the worst parts of it. I value those things which are in the favor of humanity and condemn the act of inequality which are happening around us. We are all human and we should be treated with equality; sadly in our society men are dominant over women probably because of their physical strength. In my opinion this is because women especially in third world countries are not aware of their rights. These things can be overcome through education and unfortunately we are not given basic facilities by the state, which is responsible for providing quality education and health facilities or the job opportunities equally for men and women both. And eventually when a women get a job then again they to face the harsh reality of being harassed at the workplace by their boss and colleagues. Some people have more recourses in the form of money and power than their needs and some people have less than their needs, why is that so?

     We are living in the era of technology where we are being facilitated by invention and equipments unlike ever seen before but I think instead of using them for the betterment of life, we are misusing them ; take an example of mobile which is most useful device of the 21^st century which has reduced the physical activities of people, and has increased trend of the indoor gaming, which not only affect healthy but the pattern of one’s life.

     “World is a book and those who do not travel read only one page” by (Augustine of Hippo), its shows that if you bound yourself and stay at one place then you would know just that particular place but if you travel the world (different places) then you would experience various other cultures and mindset and different people who perceive the world with the different perspective. The more you travel the more you know about the world and its harsh realities.

    I think we are destroying the life of our future generation by polluting our environment for the sake of giving ourselves the most comfortable life which is a very selfish desire , from the emission of factory’ smoke to the pollution in  the rivers we are doing our best to destroy the future.

     In conclusion, the view of this world differs from person to person. I have the sense of right and wrong and I look at the world through my own eyes. This world is a place of endless opportunities and a place to enjoy. If you look at the world form my eyes you will see a place of endless potential that is being destroyed by our greed but, as every cloud has a silver lining, I believe in a positive future. This world is all we have in this universe if we do not save it today it will be too late to save ourselves tomorrow.
