Visualise the world in a new angle. My World.

Perspective of appreciation.

Sunday Sep 28, 2008

Sometimes in life, we started off by having a small expectations of a little event. But as time pass, you realized you could obtain an even better events and as you start indulging in the luxury of this better event, you began to enjoy it and loving it. Until finally, you’ve decided this is where you should be!

But with a twist of fate, suddenly due to whatever reason, your perfect event has turned sour and you need to go back to a little event. But it’s not going to be easy, you find yourself having an emotional attachment to this event and you are not willing to let go. Letting it go will cause you to feel like “a break up with your girlfriend.”

Suddenly everything in the world turns against you. You are not able to find peace in your heart. The thought of leaving this luxury will bring a lump into your heart and you just feel like crying.

At this point of time, depression falls into place. And you dont know what to do and suddenly….

life sucks…

Anyone of you has fallen into this category before?

Because I do.

At that point of time, I was lost. I dont know myself .. suddenly life seems stupid.. and everything just don’t fit, you just feel like dying…

Now, after taking some time off to think about my life and evaluate on this event, I have finally sort out my thoughts.

Let me explain in a logical manner how did everything happen.

The reason why i felt so emotional is because i have tasted the fruit of this wonderful tree. Thus I want to stay here and do not want to settle with anything less.

I believe this is a very wrongful thinking for in the first place, by right I should only be getting a little event. An event that many people yearn for but not able to obtain it. But just because there is a chance to get more, I lost myself.

I forgot I was still able to have the little event. The fruit of the tree is just a bonus.

And in the first place, I don’t even want to have any. Now that I have one of them, why do I still complain?

I should learn to be appreciative for what I already have. And accept it and move on, Instead of grumbling about settling for the second best.

I believe this lesson of appreciation could be learnt as a life lesson. Sometimes in life, we just need to be appreciative with what we already have. And even if we cant get the best. It’s ok! For everything will still work out well in the end.

But if we were to be stubborn about it and hold onto the best, your future will be very sulky and you will cause a chain of misfortune happening to you because of your attitude.

I know I’m being very vague with this post. But I have to in order to protect the interest of my privacy and personal life. So I hope this could be of little help to you for finding a solution for your depressing problem.
