We are imprisoned by our own limitation

Some words can sound simple yet they become amazing when you come to realize where they are coming from.
“The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quiet, alone with the heavens, nature and God. As long as this exists, and it certainly always will, then there will be comfort for every sorrow, whatever the circumstances may be.”
The above words were written by Anne Frank in her diary. She’s the young girl who had to stay in hiding for 3 years, escaping the arrest which finally happened in 1944, at the meciless hands of Nazis and sent to concentration camps, where she died probably out of typhus.
But for those three years she wrote The diary which later revealed her positivity towards life. We would have been devastated if we had to stay in and concealed room for 3 years. We could have cursed each and every star, gone through depression and what not..
Now imagine the words above. What a big difference they make right? All she saw as heaven is the ability to look into nature, open skies, into the above heaven’s with arms open. We can do that almost any time we want to but our happiness is conditioned to the earnings we want, the aspirations we have in comparison to other people.
As compared to her, we may be liberated, but we are imprisoned by our own limitations of thoughts and endless materialistic desires.
