I have been talking about perspective... Hopefully, you all agree with what I think... Closely linked to perspective is life... Our perspective on life... How we see our life... What we do to change our life...
I always believe that we should be happy with what we have... I always think how fortunate i am to have something that others do not have... If you feel like you lag something in your life, for example a girlfriend, look around you... How many people are like you??? Do they have girlfriends??? Is their life like yours because of that of are they living maybe better than you??? Having a girlfriend is a plus, a privilege... You will not die now not having one... Same for other things... You may want something so much, but will you die without it???
Remember, we enter the world with nothing and leave the world with nothing... If we are able to live without that certain something when we are born, why cant we live without it now?? As we grow up, the things that we want also increase... But it is a want, not a need...
Whenever you lament about what you do not have, dun you find yourself wasting time??? Why dun you spend that time to think, instead, of what you have that others do not have??? We all are very fortunate, just that we dun appreciate what we have... Isn't it odd that people always complain and sigh about what they dun have, but not complain that they have too much of what others do not have???
From here, we can see that we dun treasure what we have... This is because we dun noe the importance and value of what we have for a very simple reason, cause we have it..... Only when we not have something then will we have that sense of longing, craving for it...
If you have what others have, then think about this.. What then makes you stand out among others if you all have similar things??? Are you going to be special??? Or just plain ordinary, common, and having nothing outstanding to prove yourself??? If we are not meant to have something, so be it... It is all fated... Yes, you can do something about... But at the end of the day, your efforts will be fruitless...
Time.... That is the pivotal thing... Only time can let you get what u THINK you want... Only when the time is right, then will everything fall into place... I dun have a girlfriend, Darrell too... But are we unhappy??? NO... And why??? Because we know when it's time to have one, we will have one... No point trying to force something that you really cannot do anything about... Darrell and I may not have what others have in terms of a girlfriend, but I dare say that we are as happy or even happier than those that have...
Life should be taken seriously, but not too seriously... Let everything happen naturally... Let it flow... All the pieces will fall into place... Just wait... Time determines everything... Patience is what we need.... No point complaining and spending all your time trying to get something when you noe you wont get it NOW... Focus your attention on the things more important in your life currently....
