When people fail to appreciate

Recently I came across so many new things in life. It's people around us , how wonderful is each creation of god ! Each day taught me about life. Everyone that I come across in the last 6 years living away from my parents, I've learnt the world is not our home!

Good and bad exist everywhere , yes , rotten apples are everywhere in the basket but somehow it hurts to know that people really hurt each other for their own reasoning causes. 6 years ago , I met one wonderful teenage father in Tottenham station in London , it was such a life gaining experience hearing a 18 year old boy speaking how fatherhood changed his life ! Everyone make mistakes , after all we are human being but we need to learn from our mistake. I dont know what is so bothering me today that so many things chattering in my mind. Is it the fear of  bringing up my family in the proper way , just like how my mother did ? Or am I just being pessismistic about the entire thing ? Or.......am I just getting restless due to stress ? I'm not able to distinguish this factor.

When two people meet, fall in love, and live happily ever after is one of the biggest myths ever perpetrated on Western civilization. The real truth is two people begin living together, and then do just about everything they can to diminish and destroy their love for each other. Am I just taking everyone's problem as my own ? I dont know but it's just bothering me a lot , I know I have such a large tendency to take people's problem as my own and I get so restless. It just bugs me why people are so selfish that they have to hurt each other because I never grew up in the environment , blame it on Asian values , we were over protected even at the age of  20.

I guess all the problem starts when people fail to appreciate each other, value the importance of one's existence and appreciate relationships.We don't appreciate what we have until it's gone. Freedom is like that. It's like air. When you have it, you don't notice it.  It's never late for anything if we accept today's life and make the change , we cant change the world , we can change ourselves. Remember charity begins at home !
