I can’t offer you anything but my thought, view, experience, and stories

Where is the morality?

There is one phrase that often said by people in Indonesian, “Why good people always die early?” (Orang baik matinya cepat).

There also a joke about it,

Two good people die and come to the after world; they are welcomed by an angel.

“This is not fair, we are good people. Why we die so early?” they ask the angel.

The angel looked confuse and ask, “Did you drink beer or any alcoholic drinks?”

“No.”

“Did you ever do freesex in your life?”

“No!”

“Did you go to night clubs or enjoy any night lifestyle?”

“NO!”

In the end the angel say, “So what’s the point in living in the earth while you people never enjoy the world?”

Seems funny? Sorry, but it isn’t funny at all for me.

This joke literary told us that we have to enjoy the earth’s pleasure, which are those wild lifestyle. That lifestyle might seem cool; I never went to any nightclub before and forever, but I admit I used to dream of that lifestyle (hang out at a club). I imagine going there and hooked with some guy and then gain a beautiful relationship, etc.

 Yet, the Lord’s grace really shines upon me.

I never got any friend that loves to go to night club, so I never went there since nobody would accompany me. Some might say that I’m such a geek or a church freak, blablabla. Hey…believe me, I’m starting to be a church freak since last five months -- It feels like years tough. 
    
Ok, back to the night lifestyle. I believe there’s verse about going out at night, which tells us to be careful since the night is dangerous. Well, it’s true. Behind the glamorous lifestyle you can find that most people are ruined caused by the alcoholic drinks, drugs, and love.

People that try to find pleasure or have fun by going to nightclub often trapped in agony. The truth is hard, nightclub won’t give you any true pleasure. It is just temporary and has a high risk of ruining your life. Well, some people might make the nightclub as a meeting place or a place to dance. I won’t judge them, I believe those people aware of it and can manage to not join the darkness flow.

However, I have one crucial question.

Where are the morality?

Still, the earth lover would question about the good people destiny.

Well, I believe the Lord has the plan and already took care of it. So, why would I bother searching the answer? (^_^)

Sometimes, just enjoy the life without questioning or worry would be the best.
