Ecclesiastes 4:11

Also, if two lie down together, they will keep warm. But how can one keep warm alone?

Aloneness, according to Solomon, makes life cold. A story was told to me a long time ago tungkol sa isang winter na pagkalamig-lamig. May tatlong taong naglalakad. Hindi na makalakad yung isa. Sino ang bubuhat ngayon sa kanya, e ang kapal-kapal ng snow at napakahirap maglakad? Mata-trap sila sa snow; ang layo pa nila sa bayan.

Selfish yung isa. Ang sabi nya, “Problema nyo yan. Mauuna na ako sa inyo. Maglalakad na lang akong mag-isa.” Naiwan ang ikalawang lalaki naman na halos matumba-tumba sa ikatlong taong hindi makalakad. Sabi nya, “Hindi ko kayang tiisin at iwanan ito,” kaya’t binuhat na lang nya. Pasan-pasan nya at hila-hila pero hindi nya iniwanan sa yelo. Sa loob-loob nya, “Siguro malapit na sa bayan yung nauna dahil wala siyang dala. Puedeng-puede siyang maka-survive.”

Di nagtagal, may nakita silang parang tuldok sa snow. Nang makalapit na sila, nakita nilang ang tuldok na yun pala ay ang nauna nilang kasama. Naging yelo dahil wala siyang kasama. Sa lamig ng panahon ay naging frozen at namatay. Dahil buhat-buhat ng pangalawang tao yung di makalakad, ang init ng katawan nila’y nagkatulungan para sila’y patuloy na mabuhay. Dahil may burden siya sa iba, nagkaroon ng kahulugan ang buhay nya at na-extend pa ito.

This is the importance of sharing our life with others and carrying other people’s burdens. Nagkakaroon ng additional life ang life natin. Nare-recharge ng buhay ng iba ang buhay natin. We also become the beneficiaries in the end. The people we carry can be a blessing.
