I visited a place that used to be a village or combined villages near the mount merapi. The village (s) that used to be there is there no more!! It was destroyed by the heat clouds during the eruption of the mountain. Nothing was there apart from dead trees, huge rocks, sulfur smell, huge empty space covered with dust, and endless memories of pain and tears.
It was heartbreaking to see what happened to people over there. To wake up one day and found themselves had to run for their lives. To wake up and saw that their house and everything that they had was gone with the heat clouds. To wake up and found that their loved ones were not with them anymore.
Life is very short and noone really knows what is going to happen to us or the people around us. Wouldnt it be a waste if we build/ live this life for some thing that will not last for eternity?? something that will fade away as the world fades away.
Standing among those remaining villages makes me ponder about the purpose of life.
What is the purpose of you life??
What are you building your life on??
