James Bond 007 - The world is not enough

Filed under: Expressions

This is one of the many lines uttered in the film series of James bond 007.

What I really like about this phrase is that it tells us that there are still other things in life worth living for. Simple yet worthwhile for us to live by. I remember what pope john Paul 2 said about treasures in life. He said that we should not just live with the comforts that the world can give us but instead on how we will be able to live ourselves in service to others and to God. Somewhat, a very familiar and most commonly used line is that earthy things would not satisfy you when your spirituality is empty. When you think own the world yet at the end of the day, you go home lonely and feeling alone. Fame, power and fortune is within your grasps yet there is still something you felt missing.

It is beyond compare knowing that we have done something worthwhile to be of help to others. serving others is one way of serving God.  To live by the words and life of Jesus . He was sent by the father to serve the people but not to be served by the people. He was nobody during His time, He was mocked by the people yet this didn’t stop Him from serving, loving and even dying for us.

This only shows that even those famous personalities in politics, sports and in entertainment live not only because of what they have earned became who they are before and now because they meaningfully gave themselves in service to others.

How about you, how well did you live your life at the moment?
