Humanity's deepest desire for knowledge is justification enough for our continuing quest and our goal is nothing less

WHAT WILL MATTER....

Ready or not....some day..... all this will come to an end.
There will be no more sunrises.....no minutes...hours or days.
All the things we collected, whether treasured or forgotten....will pass on to someone else.
Our wealth, fame and temporal power will shrivel to irrelevance.

It will not matter what we owned or what we were owed.
Our grudges, resentments, frustrations, and jealousies too will finally disappear.
And so too, will our hopes....ambitions.....plans....and to-do lists expire.
The wins and losses that once seemed so important will fade away.

At the end......it will not matter where we came from..... or on what side of the tracks we lived.
It will not matter whether we were beautiful or brilliant.
Even our gender and skin color will be irrelevant.
So.... what will matter? How will the value of our days be measured?

What will matter is not what we bought, but what we built...

Not what we got, but what we gave.
What will matter is not our success.....but our significance.
What will matter is not what we learned.....but what we taught.

What will matter is every act of integrity, compassion, courage or sacrifice that enriched, empowered or encouraged others to live a better life.
What will matter, is not our competence.....but our character.
What will matter, is not how many people we knew.....but how many will feel a lasting loss when we're gone.
What will matter, is not our memories..... but the memories that live in those who loved us.

What will matter is how long we will be remembered....by whom and for what.
Living a life that matters does NOT happen by accident. It is not a matter of circumstance but of choice.
So dear brothers and sisters....now is the moment....

Let us choose to live a life that matters!

    Learn the underlying teachings of the philosophy common to all religions. This information has been withheld from us as the politics or method of preaching or teaching by some religious leaders has created ignorance, separation, guilt and divisiveness breeding difference and disharmony.

    The essence of all Religions is Oneness and Unity, called monism. "A mind that has been stretched will never return to its original dimension" (Albert Einstein). You will share in a consciousness beyond the limits of traditional thought...on a journey towards personal growth to achieve peace, joy, happiness and health for a more purposeful and serene life.

    Ever was there a time when "I" did not exist, nor you, nor all these things, nor in the future shall any of us cease to be. As the embodied soul continually passes in this body from baby to child to youth to old age, the soul similarly, passes into another body at death. They who are self-realized are not bewildered by such a change. For one who is filled with enlightenment, the misery of material life ceases to exist as one's intelligence expands into a new consciousness of reality.

    Remember, Life commences with the heart beat which is the 'drum beat' on the march in the procession towards 'death'. You came into this world crying and you should leave here laughing, Learn the secret teachings embedded in all the religions (Christian, Jew, Hindu, Muslim, Buddhist, Parsee, Jain, Yoruba and others). This is an inspiring pathway to improve oneself through understanding, knowledge, wisdom and patience to gain intelligence, joy and happiness while eliminating fear and tension.

Some people asked Allah's Apostle, "Whose Islam is the best? i.e. (Who is a very good Muslim)?" He replied, "One who avoids harming the Muslims with his tongue and hands." ~ Hadith narrated by Abu Musa, as related by Al-Bukhari, Beliefnet Muslim Wisdom
