A Reflection by Cluny Global Concerns Committee


Also in response to the devastation and the trauma in Nepal, this is a reflection on the earthquake, written on the Cluny Global Concerns Committee Facebook:
 
If there is one thing...
An earthquake reminds us, it is - how fragile this life is. And how connected we are as a World Family. The tectonic plates don't care about the boundaries we draw over Mother Earth. To think that in just a split second, this reality we have built up around us can be destroyed, is a humbling thought. If today were the last day of our lives, would each one of us be truly content with WHO WE ARE WIHTIN? If not, it is time to start working towards becoming the persons we want to be. Not so much in terms of profession and designations, but as people - as living, breathing, manifestations of sole energy. This incident has truly pictured how fragile human life is, how momentary all possessions are. How confident and self assured we feel in our materialistic world. All it takes is a tremor to remind us of how vain the world is and how Mighty GOD is...
