When then would we learn....
When then would we learn that many things we do would some what have an adverse effect on someone else or something else to a certain extend. Do we even think about what the other party has to go through? Lets say parking outside a designated parking lot might cause someone else to not be able to find another parking lot, or leaving the tap on while soaping yourself might cause someone else to have not enough water in some other part of the world, or even picking your nose and leaving your booger stuck underneath some mrt seat or even maybe letting go of air when we really need to? See.. many things we do is for our own pleasure or rather for our own convenience, not bothering or giving two hoots about what someone else might experience or face, and most of the time, or rather all the time, we just seem to brush that particular thought aside. Not wanting to crack our brains or put ourselves into someone else's shoes.
Lets say having friends. Why do we even bother to make friends? Becuase we want benefits? because we have too much love in our hearts to share?? Dont we make friends so that we will not feel alone or insignificant at any given time or place? So that they can pray for us? So that they will remember our presence and be there for us when we are down? So that they can be our listening ear when we have so many things to unload from our hearts? So that we can get help when we need it? So that we can spend time with someone on a free weekend? So that we have someone to sit with in class? So that we can share notes and get help in our assignments? So that we can save money when we Pool our money to say go on a holiday? TO basically FILL OUR VOID which many of us choose not to see or even think about? Yes it really shows how selfish we are. Dont tell me we have friends because we have so much money and we love giving treats? Or we have all the time in the world to spare? Or we want to listen to every single problem he/she has to unload on us even if its the millionth time they are saying it?? Are we really that great and magnanimous? We are all human arent we. =) Not being skeptical but just opening the "box" for thinking.
We find love so that we would not spend our dying moments alone. So that we have a companion and a soul mate. So that we have someone to hold us when we need a hug. So that when we come home from a long day outside, we have someone there for us. So that they can make us smile, make us a cup of coffee, be there for us at any given time place or situation, being our pillar of strength, being our ray of hope. Well just to be there to love us and to accept us for all our imperfections, knowing how wretched we are and how imperfect our mannerisms may be. Dont you think so? Or do we find love because we want to love someone, because we want to be there for someone, becuase we want to make them smile, because we want to give them a massage when they are really tired while even we have worked our butt off the whole day with loads of work to complete, piles and piles of bills to pay, trying to make ends meet, after having it rough with our colleauges and friends, squeezing in the mrt and having someone to shove you around and step on your toes and worse of all fighting this spiritual battle??? Im not sure about you but i sure would do it for these reasons i just mentioned. But are we really that great or do we have hidden intentions that sin has caused us to have that WE ARE NOT EVEN AWARE ABOUT?
People say i think too much. Well i just say i have a creative and a hungry mind. Hungry for information, hungry for thought, hungry for answers, hungry for improvement, hungry for options. Meticulous and wierd as my thoughts may seem, It really issit. I think but i dont dream. I just like having more options and thinking ourside this little box that we have. So am i really thinking too much or are people not bothering to even think? Cuz they are so selfish and so sucked into their own little solar systems, where the whole world revolves around them? Not bothering about the consequences because somewhere someone somehow would just solve the problem for them? Well at least i know that when i become OLDER, i wont be suffering from ALZJIMER or having my brain cells slowly being eaten way by the abundance of time and the insufficient capabilities i have to do anything for myself. Wouldnt everyone be more caring and more loving and more thoughtful if we took time to think about what we say or what we do or what we want to do? Or would it just cause us to remain at a standstill and even having the possibility to lose all that we might have? Or would it give us more time to do things other than spend time unwisely like on blogs and what not? Or maybe make ourselves better lovers, companions or even children to our parents? Wont we be able to consider how others might feel before we even think of doing it?
See now u might find you dun think enough. Its time to reflect on the things we do. And how if by doing it differently in the past, we at this point of time might be just somewhere else, doing something else with someone else.
