Everyday, when I go online and check things out, I always end up being emotional because of my friends’ activities.
When I scroll down, a friend recently uploaded pictures of their latest outdoor expedition with their families. Further I scrolling down, a friend of mine went to a party with a couple of people I know. Even further down, a friend is exalting her feelings high to the heavens because finally, she got what she wanted after a year of hard-work and dedication to the job that she’s in, even though she despises getting calls from people who are stubborn and shallow-minded because she has no choice but to help them in one way or another.
Browsing furthermore down my news feed, people are changing their profile pictures every 30 minutes, as if the world would end the next minute. Even more further down the timeline, someone posted in her blog about how excited and at the same time dreading or rather, agitated she is for the fact that in a couple of months, she would have to face reality and forget all about the princess stuff that makes her what she is.
Another friend of mine posted about a recently concluded week-long celebration of our school’s founding week that ended with a glittering show of fireworks that somehow, from her point of view, was dedicated to all the students in the university as a sign of recognition for their efforts to make the celebration fruitful etcetera, etcetera, blah, blah, blah!
So, what is my point? Nothing actually; it’s just that most of the people that I know are off to somewhere else, having the time of their lives while I am stuck here doing nothing but stare at the farthest distant point that my bare eyes could see.
Well, I have one message to all my friends out there…
Wherever you may be, whatever you may do, no matter what challenge this harsh world has to offer, remember one thing; always be happy with what you and what you have at the moment and savor every single second of it as you may never get another shot at it and you may just end up sitting at one corner, regretting everything and thinking about the what IF’s and everything else in between.
No matter what happens, always remember that the most important mission in your life is making someone happy every single day that you are alive—even if that somebody is yourself! A simple smile, the slightest gesture of recognition towards another, the sympathy and the acceptance of the revelation of events, could bring about certain changes in each and everyone’s life around you in one way or another.
If you want change, begin that by changing yourself; become that person that you want to be and bring out the best in whatever you may have may it be in your prime or your lowest times.
Life is in a constant change—and so should we. :)
