Are you homeless?
Does your Soul have a Home? – By Joseph Ghabi

How do you feel when you see homeless people on the street? Many of
us feel disgusted when we look at them and others do not even
acknowledge their existence as if they're worthless and
irrelevant.
Some of us even consider them as being nothing but drunks and
junkies. We all have different ways of interpreting the lives of
these people, but in the end, we all believe that they are less
fortunate than ourselves.

Some of us already understand that perhaps something in a homeless
person's life went wrong and forced them to be where they are.
Some
people might even say that a homeless person became that way because
the pressures of living in society drove them to it. Perhaps they
felt misunderstood because they were too `open' and in touch
with
their deeper soul essence, when unfortunately our limited society is
yet unable to recognize philosophies and life ideas from the nature
of a soul perspective. Those people likely ended up lost and
feeling `out of place' wandering around with a feeling that
nothing
in their lives really matters in terms of their understanding from a
higher level. It can be very difficult to survive in a world where
the `mundane' seems to matter most.

It has even been discovered that some of the homeless are rich! So
it is not always the case that they are less fortunate than us in a
financial sense. I recall a situation that happened some time ago, a
homeless man was discovered dead and they found out he had over 3
million dollars stashed away in his bank! In the end, whether they
are rich or poor, these people are still homeless right now and why?

I checked the internet for the definition of the word `home'
and I
found this interesting definition "An environment providing
security
and happiness". So there are many of us in the world who have a
roof
over our head, yet we neither feel secure or happy. Do we think we
are any more fortunate than the people living on the streets who do
not have a building to live in? Are we any more human in essence
than those people because we claim to own a few slabs of concrete?
Tell me, don't we still have many issues to deal with even though
we
have a place to live in, probably even more issues to deal with than
those people who do not have the responsibility of maintaining
a `home establishment'. As an example, what is the
difference
between a homeless person drinking alcohol to compensate for his or
her problems and doing the same thing in the comfort of our own
dwelling? If you ask me there is no difference at all, it is only a
matter of status!

How do we define someone who is homeless? A homeless person is
simply a person without a place to life. The number of homeless
people is growing rapidly all over the world and what are we doing
about it? Nothing really! It seems to be more important to us to go
to the moon or mars and creates bombs worth millions of dollars!
What the hell, if we can't solve any of our problems then
let's just
blow ourselves away!

In terms of the rest of us who consider ourselves fortunate for
having a roof over our head, would you ever think of yourself as
being homeless? I bet most of you are now saying "NO, HELL NO!
What
are you talking about? I have a home, two cars, a home theatre, a
Nintendo machine or an Xbox, many games. I go out every week and
have fun!" Let's now consider the definition of the word
`home' once
again `An environment providing security and happiness'. Now
with
that in mind, let me clarify my question again. With all that you
have materially and aesthetically in your life today, are you
sincerely happy in your life? How many times per day are you aware
of a deep sense of loneliness? Do you ever feel an inner emptiness
and as though there is something missing in life, yet you do not
know what it is?

Most of us do feel this way on a regular basis, but are unable to
determine what the problem is. We keep buying more and more stuff;
we keep ourselves busy eating, drinking, smoking, entertaining and
getting wasted on alcohol and drugs in order to avoid dealing with
life. We can deny it for as long as we like, but in the end it is us
who suffers and regardless of how we try to suppress things, that
feeling that we are lonely, unhappy and that we are missing
something will not go away. How many of us have bought stuff, yet in
reality we don't really have space for any more stuff in our
life?
How many of us are bored with life? How many of us feel a
prevailing sense of lack of purpose?

The reason we came to this plane in the first place was because our
Soul made the decision to do so. Then we were born. On the other
hand, had your soul decided not to come to spend a life in this
plane, you would not be here today. So if your soul decided to come
here for a purpose and you are not living up to that and carrying
out your souls task, then you will always feel you are missing
something in your life. You will always feel that inexplicable void
and loneliness deep inside of you; you might not feel truly happy.

What is it that prevents us from fulfilling our Souls task? It is
quite simply our human limitations, our stubbornness, our fear of
experiencing humility, our pride, our ego and our resistance to
change that prevents us. When you try to fulfill your life with
material things as a substitute for connecting to your Soul, this
will never substitute for the need to look more deeply into your
life and its purpose.

Making yourself appear happy on the outside in front of everyone,
yet when you are alone you are as miserable as can be, serves no
purpose at all. After all, is it just about appearances?? Who is
getting hurt in reality? Living superficially will never bring
harmony into your life for a simple reason, you are contradicting
yourself. The funny part here is that many of us are somehow aware
that we are living in this way, yet we still keep on doing it! My
question is just how long are you prepared to keep it up? Will it be
until the day you die and leave this earth life without
accomplishing much of what your soul had intended in the first
place? That is a waste of a lifetime.

My questions to you now are very simple. Are you homeless? Does your
Soul have a home? Take a deeper look at your self, into your own
being and take a good look at what you are doing with your life. Is
this the life you really want to live and the path you desire to
continue walking on? In reality, life is simple, yet on most
occasions, we make things more complicated than necessary. From now
on, just set yourself free and begin doing things for yourself and
for the right reasons and always with a pure intention. Try to
discover what is good for your soul and then do it! Most of all,
always remember you are never ever alone!
