We are as important as we think…?

Yesterday we celebrated the anniversary of the death of a dear friend who was a successful businessman, community leader and a hidden philanthropist, who helped numerous people with total discretion. The news of his passing was shocking for everyone, especially because he was young and healthy. Its more than a thousand employees were terrified of their future as well as the recipients of their support. At the time, it seemed as if the fall of this beloved icon had done irreparable damage to the lives of countless.

A year later, as I reflect on special memories of him, I realize that nothing really stopped after his passing. His businesses have continued, the students he sponsored are still in school and life has continued despite their departure. The most precious gifts he left were his exemplary actions and the warm memories of friendship and love we all cherish.

My dear friends, none of us are indispensable. If we were to believe that, without us, our work, business, family, and everything we consider important, would stop continuing, then we are sadly wrong. Our life is just a small beep on a fast moving screen. No more or less. When a tree falls along the fence of a garden, leaving a huge hole, it creates a void that we consider permanent at the time. However, soon, other plants and trees fill the hole and the garden appears as if the tree never existed.

Therefore, it’s time to press the reboot button, say goodbye to the ego, and choose humility and life in the present as your basic state of being. Enjoy life to the fullest, and quench it with rich experiences, without worrying about what others think or the legacies you want to leave behind. They are temporary, unimportant and of little value, as the present is the only moment when the small beep exists on the fast moving screen…© Amyn Dahya
