How many people have you know personally who have died? Almost died? Been the victim of neglect or abuse?
How many people out there have you not met yet, that you wish you could have met?
How many people do you truly value or treasure?
In all cases was there something you could have done to help prevent it?
The answer is always yes, because the question is not asking for a guarantee. There is ALWAYS something to be done to prevent things.
Yet many of us go forth blindly to blame others for own neglect and lack of awareness for the world around us. Lack of consideration for the time and value we try to invest into things and into others. Lack of respect for how our actions make others feel or how it makes us think of how we view others.
What good does it do anyone to force our will onto others just because of petty disagreements? To refuse to let go of something and in turn to hold ourselves and others back? To refuse to listen and take heed, but rather fixate on one little thing like it is all that is important to your life?
People are dying for pointless reasons and I get he feeling that a good number of us don't care even half as much as we claim. All because it doesn't directly impact ourselves. What would it take for us to stop taking everything for granted or to think that we deserve things "just cause" of "xyz". Maybe if we put more effort into those around us, we would not end up feeling so alone, sad, or bitter.
Frustrations stand to mount from feelings of negativity, and without stopping it, they will overflow in some manner small or large and ugly. It could be something simple or large and blind to just exactly how we are making others feel. Thus does the cycle spread and repeat.
What do you value most in life? Yourself? One person? or perhaps those who are willing to give others a chance to work things out?
Do you take responsibility for your actions?
Do you seek others for help with your issues to find peaceful solutions?
Or do you seek to blame others for your own behavior?
Choices choices... we are always making them, even when we feel like we have no choice, for there always is a choice.
Rein in your impulses and keep a level head. For none of us know jus how far reaching our actions could be through the years.
Minimize your regrets by seeking a way to go about things in a positive manner, for it would help things to go much more smoothly.
There is always a reason for things that happen even if not apparent at first, but without knowing the chain of events, you can only ever judge a book by its cover.
