Point to Ponder

Have you ever done something bad or said something mean to the people around you? I mean your loved ones. Sometimes, you just give them a cold shoulder and you only realize how bad you are when the feeling of remorseful comes to you. When you know that you need to apologize for what you have done, you would said, “What is done cannot be undone, so what’s the use to apologize?!” You just forgo everything that has happened and you’ll repeat the same mistake again and again…

But when you are so desperate and you need someone to care about you, the people that you have hurt will always be the first one to comfort you. They don’t even care what you have done to them, all they know is to forgive you and love you even more.

I have been sick since yesterday. This is what I ponder about till this very moment. There are a lot more to learn in this life. We came to this world for a reason, for a purpose. Not just to eat and sleep and waste our time. We need to make good use of our life on earth. We need to learn how to become a ‘human’.

To everyone out there, wake up! Learn how to treat the people around you well. Love them, take care of them. Stop doing something that you’ll regret in the future. Don’t wait to be loved, take the effort to love others first. Cherish the relationship you have with others.

You never lose by loving. You always lose by holding back.
