The Parable of the Empty Suitcase


A man was about to die, and he realized it; he saw God coming closer with a suitcase in his hand.

God said: Alright son, its time to go….

Surprised the man responded: Now..? So soon..? I had a lot of plans…

God said, am sorry but its time to go……

Man Asked: What do you have in that suitcase..?

God answered: Your belongings…..

My belongings.....? You mean my things, My clothes, My money..?

God answered: Those things were not yours they belonged to the earth.

Is it my memories....? The man asked.

God answered: Those never belonged to you they belonged to Time.

Is it my talents…..?

God answered: Those were never yours, they belonged to the circumstances.

Is it my friends and family….?

God answered: I'm sorry they were never yours, they belonged to the path.

Is it my wife and son….?

God answered: They were never yours, the belonged to your heart.

Is it my body…..?

God answered: That was never yours, it belonged to the dust.

Is it my soul….?

God answered: No that is mine.

Full of fear, the man took the suitcase from God and opened it, just to find out that the suitcase was empty.
With a tears coming down his cheek the man said: I never had anything?
God answered: That is correct, every moment you lived were only yours.
Life is just a moment.

MORAL OF THE STORY:

Life is made up of moments and it is the moments that belongs to you.
For this reason enjoy this time while you have it. Don't let anything that you think you own stop you from doing so.
-Live Now..
-Live your life..
- Don't forget to be happy and remember you are responsible for your own happiness from within and that is the most important thing that matters.
- Material things and everything else that you fought for stay here.
-"YOU CAN'T TAKE ANYTHING"
