saddness for anything that is not eternal is vain....death is your true birth...theres no time to worry or be sad or lonely...espacialy if there is something after death one should prepare for..."What is the life of this world but amusement and play? but verily the Home in the Hereafter,-that is life indeed, if they but knew"(translation of the Quran) why waste time careing about it...
this life, anything in this life that does not bring you closer to the Beloved is insignifigant in vain pointless and thus so is worrying or being sad because of it....if you want to be sad...their is something much greater to be sad about...and if you want to be happy,their is something greater to be happy about...if people only knew it...they would smash their heads for ever sheding a tear or breaking a laugh, on material things which seemed so vital,while forgetting the eternal things which alone are worth tears or laughter:
1. Namely, that no bearer of burdens can bear the burden of another;
2. That man can have nothing but what he strives for;
3.. That (the fruit of) his striving will soon come in sight:
4.. Then will he be rewarded with a reward complete;
5.. That to thy Lord is the final Goal;
6. That it is He Who granteth Laughter and Tears;
7. That it is He Who granteth Death and Life;
8. That He did create in pairs,- male and female,
9. From a seed when lodged (in its place);
10.. That He hath promised a Second Creation (Raising of the Dead);
11.. That it is He Who giveth wealth and satisfaction;

The (material) things which ye are given are but the conveniences of this life and the
glitter thereof; but that which is with God is better and more enduring: will ye not then
be wise?

"Know that worldly life is merely a sport and a pastime [involving] worldly show and competition among yourselves, as well as rivalry in wealth and children. It may be compared to showers where the plantlike amazes the incredulous: then it withers away and you see it turning yellow; soon it will be just stubble. In the Hereafter there will be both severe torment and forgiveness as well as approval on the part of God. Worldly life means only the enjoyment of illusion.
Compete for forgiveness from your Lord, and a garden broader than the sky plus the earth, which has been prepared for those who believe in God and His messenger. Such is God's bounty which He gives to anyone He wishes. God possesses splendid bounty!
No disaster ever happens on earth nor to yourselves unless it is [contained] in a Book even before We brought it into existence. That is easy for God [to do], so that you should not feel sorry about what may have escaped you, nor yet rejoice in what He has given you. God does not love every conceited boaster who is miserly and orders people to be miserly. For anyone who turns away from it, God is Transcendent, Praiseworthy. "
