No matter what happens in your life, start your day right.I think I've come to a point in my life whereby I know the importance of starting my days right with God. Your day can go haywire and really bad in the middle of the day. But, it has to start right, and hopefully, you will allow it to end right too.
It's the everday life things that get you down, its the disappointments in people you face, and perhaps things which you purposely throw at the back of your mind comes up to you and haunt you again.
We all face these moments in life, don't we ? Haha, if you don't, then you don't belong to the human race. Or rather, maybe you're an atheist in everything, not just in religion.
Because an atheist expects nothing and receives nothing. So the word 'disappointment' is a foreign word.
I think the problem with people is not about them not knowing your feelings and emotions.
Its about whether they even WANT to know about your feelings and emotions.
Most of the time, you brush past somebody while you're in your business. Do you even, or rather, have you ever, stopped a moment in your tracks and just talk to the person ?
Hate it when something happens and people are scurried to redeem the consequences. It doesn't work anymore, it doesn't work as well I guess.
When you have a kid playing beside a vase, why didn't you put the vase away ?
You have to wait for the kid to be injured by the vase, and clean up the bloody mess ?
'Oh.. accidents do happen..'
'Oh... I didn't know...'
'Ah.. nvm, he'll grow to be more careful next time... '
If you still don't get it, you're dumb.
It's not about whether how much the kid can learn out of the whole situation.
It's about whether you, as a parent, has tried to help him at all.
Know the situations you are facing well. If you do not even know the situation, and yet dash into it just like that, you will surely lose it, and you'll lose yourself.
Sometimes, you really cannot understand what one's going through. It's okay if you do not and cannot understand. We all go through different things in life. Very different. What I've went through, you might never in your life have to go through. Vice versa.
But, did you even try to understand ?
Leave you to your own logics and thinkings. Digest it. And you'll realise that there is something called 'being sensitive to others' in your life to work on.
People are never captivated about how fast you run your marathon.
They are captivated by the manner you run your marathon.
Do not run it as if you're the only one in it.
