In continuation of my previous 3 Learnings, here's one for today.
_________________
Here we are, afraid of losing what we have all the time, holding on to it so tightly that not a soul can touch it. We think by hiding it from the world, it's hidden and it's ours. Nothing is. Nothing ever will be. For, nothing ever was.
If you think there is anything that you have that's yours, be it money, a house, a job, or a girlfriend... it's nothing but an illusion. It'll all disappear... in one blow.
Here we are, so insecure that we are afraid of restarting our lives, so we just carry on trying to sort out the current mess. The thought that we should give it all up and just start all over—with nothing—might cross our minds sometimes, sure, but we get scared and we push away anything that scares us.
There is nothing I can ever achieve or gain that I cannot lose, in a matter of seconds. You have never gained enough to not be able to lose it all, in just a few minutes. What you think is yours, was never yours and will never be yours. Whatever you make here, you leave here. You came naked and you're going to go back naked.
So what are you afraid of?
Let all be lost. Let them take away everything. As long as you have your heart beating strong, as long as you have your nostrils working fine, as long as the blood flows in your veins, you will live, you will breathe, and you can get it all back... again and again. For, if you can do it once, you can damn well do it again. It's just a game we play—Life.

This is true for this world. However, there are realities to gain if we bring the other world into the picture, the life after death!
By the way, I read a couplet in Gujarati that beautifully describes what you just wrote. It says:
"If all belongs to you then leave and show,
If nothing belongs to you, leave and go!"

Nice thought, I must say. I want to add one story. Once, a man asked a painter at his painting exhibition ceremony, "What is your best painting in your life?" The painter said, "My next painting." I think the line told by the painter should be the motive of our new generation.
