Who sustained us when we were in our mother's womb? Think about that! When a child is born, the head of the family says, `Alas, family problems are upon me.' But who protected us when we were in our mother's womb? Keep in mind that if we were protected there, why won't we be protected in the outside world? We will also be protected after birth. After coming into this world we get milk from our mother's breast, and as we grow the Creator provides sugar cane and fruits, and so many other things for us to eat. But then there is pride, and man becomes intoxicated through pride. Really, what is life? It is said, "With closed fists you came into the world, with outstretched hands you will leave it."
