Yes very intresting. i read a very good islamic book on this subject that described life as being full of a series of tests. I cant remember its name or i would post the title. When one test is passed, another is implemented. Therefore we can be in a constant struggle to pass these tests and may feel like giving up as one gets harder than the other. However, on death/acceptance to paridise, we will be pleased to have pass the tests we did, no matter how difficult they may have been.

This temporary life is a test for your next eternal life.
