I think,
due to
the fact
that we
are
addicted
to
material
things
we
don’t
appreciate
the
value of
“the
days
that are
passing
by”.
We can
hardly
find the
bonds of
love,
respect,
trust,
confidence
and
the
feeling
of
sincerity
which
should
be
present
in our
lives.
We
cannot
find
these
qualities
and
share
them
even
with our
closest
ones,
and
establish
them
among us
(make
them
stable).
These
qualities
cannot
sprout
or
nourish
because
we are
not
accustomed
to (do
not have
a
tendency
for) the
spiritual
values
and we
have
very
exaggerated
expectations
for the
worldly
values.
We do
love to
disregard,
ignore
some
things-values.
The
society
observes
all this
negativity
passively.
Thick
walls
are
built
around
us.
However,
human
relations
can be
more
important
than we
think.
We have
become
careless
about
others (we
do not
give any
importance
to other
people)
as we
have
turned
into
experts
in
everything.
Are we
forgetting
the
photographs
in
our
memories;
the
colours,
the
lines of
our
past
which we
have
filled
in with
our
virtues,
weaknesses-problems,
with all
the
negative
and
positive
aspects
of our
lives
and the
zigzags
that we
have
made?
I guess
we
haven’t
forgotten
them
yet.
However,
we act
like we
have
forgotten.
In the
mean
time,
the so
called
authorities
come on
the
scene
and
lecture
for the
purpose
of
showing
off and
talk
about
sincerity.
Nevertheless,
they are
not
genuine,
they
just
imitate,
thus
they
cannot
be a
remedy
to the
bleeding
wound.
Nevertheless,
the
truths
become
manifest
inevitably.
Doesn’t
this
matter
require
a little
bit of
more
thinking
about
that
feeling
we are
talking
about?
In a
way, the
elderly
ones are
responsible
for
where we
are now
(for
the
current
situation),
because
they
have
left
this
field
uncontrolled.
The
reason
is that
their
mission
has
become
manifest
several
times
in
several
decades;
it was
much
emphasized,
well
thought
upon
accepted
and
especially
much
effort
was
spent to
make it
perceived
completely.
The
problems
go on
and on
when
this
matter
is not
approached
as told.
It is
very
interesting
that we
seem to
ignore
the good
things
and the
wishes/intentions.
We don’t
even
want to
remember
certain
things
but
prefer
another
principle.
We hold
on to
the
excuses
like “It
is not
good
think
too
nicely
(to be
too kind
and
gentle).”
If we
need to
summarize
it, we
are
almost
like the
dead!
In
reality,
to open
up the
path
that
leads to
becoming
a lively
person,
it is
necessary
“to
know the
reasons
well for
these
passive
and dull
(expressionless)
moods”.
It is
expected
from us
to
perform
our duty
and
this is
to face
and
overcome
sincerely
the
ideas
that are
against
supporting
the
humanly
relations,
to think
about
the
solutions
to
correct
these
problems
and to
apply
them.
It is
also our
duty in
the
first
place to
be
respectful
to the
approaches,thoughts
of
Allah’s
Rasul
and the
ones who
are the
possessors
of Allah
(who
have
attained
certitude
to
Allah).
Unfortunately,
today’s
human
being
couldn’t
put
forth
such
types of
behaviour
that are
highly
missed,
couldn’t
complete
his
progress,
and
couldn’t
synchronize
his
thoughts
with
those of
the ones
who are
adjusting
and
arranging
the
(knowledge)
that
they are
sharing
in
accordance
with the
contemporary
developments.
In my
opinion,
this is
the
biggest
factor
that
prevents
sincerity.
The
class
of
people
we have
mentioned
make us
feel
their
presence
with
their
different
“sincere,
close
and from
the
heart”
formation.
Those
who lack
this
formation,
put a
distance
between
them and
the
others
as if
they are
strangers
and
even if
they are
sincere,
they
cannot
find the
opportunity
to show
this
feeling
on any
account.
Whereas
a person
who is
tied
with
strong
bonds
to
Islamic
beliefs
and
values,
no
matter
what
happens,
should
be able
to use
this
virtue
within
the
wholeness
and he
should
be the
leading
figure
to
broaden
the
vision
of the
society
and keep
them
upright.
This is
the way
(method)
of
becoming
effective
in terms
of
sharing.
On the
contrary,
secretive,uncommunicative
behaviour-phony
acts
reveal
themselves
and this
condition
confuses
almost
everyone.
From
this
point
on, it
becomes
nearly
impossible
to talk
about
any
existence
of
sharing.
It
should
not be
forgotten
that
to help
a person
get rid
of his
depressed
mood and
make him
feel
lively
(again)
or talk
about a
thought
which
reflects
the
truth
and make
the
shared
thoughts
more
clear
and
understandable
can
only be
achieved
by means
of being
sincere.
It is
the duty
of all
of us to
be able
to make
this
happen.
To
disappoint
someone
who
approaches
you with
sincere
emotions
purposefully
has no
place in
the
religion
of
Islam
or
humanity.
Of
course,
what I
am
talking
about
here is
also
applicable
for the
“social
life”.
If,
people
have
managed
to
overcome
the
obstacles
and the
difficulties
that
appeared
in life,
then
that is
because
they
have had
faith
in
each
other,
in other
words,
they
have
been
sincere.
It
doesn’t
mean
that
this
atmosphere,
feeling
(of
trust)
has
changed
or it
may
change
because
of some
small
unexpected
(incidents),
misunderstandings,
and
emotional
attitudes.
The
reason
is a
person
is
either
sincere
or
not.
It
becomes
clear
after a
certain
time
period.
The
other
attitudes
are
deceptive.
It seems
to be
genuine
because
a
personal
benefit
is
expected
(the
person
looks
sincere
because
he is
doing it
for the
sake of
his
personal
interest.).
Besides,
(acting
phony)
he loses
all his
credibility
in the
eyes of
others,
his
identity
and
cannot
have the
title
of
educator/mentor.
It
shouldn’t
be
forgotten
that “insincere
personalities”
can
easily
be
identified
(become
manifest)
within
the
social
web.
The
prohibitions,
taboos
and the
absurdities
which
arise
from the
conditionings,
traditions
and
customs
of the
society
are not
divine
decrees,
but they
are
still
prevailing
and this
is a
fact.
However,
being
sincere,
sincerity
overcomes
all of
these
and
enables
the
individual
to have
his
freedom.
In other
words,
the
negative
thoughts
and
deeds
are
instantly
transformed
into
positive
ones by
means of
being
sincere.
Soon
enough,
whatever
belongs
to the
past is
wiped
out.
After
this
transition
period,
the
person
gets
used to
what is
right
and
real,
starts
to
think,
act and
live his
life
accordingly.
In real
terms,
this is
what we
call
sincerity. |
