Lessons of life I keep learning..... everyday I learn something new...people might not like what they learn...but the more they do..the more mature they get.... or not... well.... sometimes we move round in circles in life... the richest and the poorest share more similarities than we actually perceive.... like how simple they are at heart.... show-offs are never perfectionists...they still have to complete the circle.....
I have been doing things.... lots of things and I expected people to do the same for me.... well, it was all selfish..i accept... well..what i found out...better keep your expectations low because the world out there does not believe in the barter system.. the people who give...sometimes keep giving.... and extortionists/predators keep taking whatever they can lay their hands on...
A sweet lesson a friend once taught me.... " Whatever you do in life, you do it because you want to do it...not because others expect you to do it, or you expect the world to do the same for you...do it because your heart/brain/gut tells you to do it.... and do not expect others to do the same for you because you did it for them.... " Every relationship is based on the threads of mutual trust and respect... If the threads are weighed heavily on one side..the relationship is one sided.... Just think of a friend whom you call always and he/she never bothers to call back... then again... think of someone....who always calls you...and you never return the courtesy... maybe you can relate to it... I do. Did you do the right thing....? I would say, give to those who give to you and let those who ignore you, realize your worth when you are gone... but it is harder said than done... The world does not work that way, does it?
I do not claim to be a writer..... these are postulates I frame for my life... maybe not everyone can relate to them... I am sure I could have used fewer words to express the same... but then... that's not me...
