From wheat fields to energy fields

Author's name: Abdullah bin Muhammad Al-Shahri

A centenarian was asked about his view of life after his long life. He replied that it is like a room with two doors; a person enters through one door and exits through the other. What a person may see as a hardship at one time seems insignificant after a while, and what he may see as a challenge or difficulty later appears in reality to be small or even trivial in many cases. What he considers an achievement only leaves a good impression and beautiful memories, such as “a tattoo on the back of the hand.” I have progressed through all the age stages, from childhood to youth and up to old age, and all that remains in the memory of it are just memories.
