how much a Padini shawl costs? how much a good relaxing spa treatment costs? can i afford a huge bungalow? how much do i need to earn to own a BMW? how much my expenses throughout this month? if im planning to get married, would that be expensive?
we work to earn money - money; we use it to complete our needs - passion, at times - each minute in a day get wasted just like that in the hassle to earn for a living - and MOST get lost in the infinite cycle of 'earning for a living'
concept of 'must-own-a-house' , 'must-buy-car' , 'must-go-vacation' and et cetera are prefixed in our young minds. in the midst of working continuously for monthly income, we ALWAYS forget the purpose of we doing that.
often, we dont remember things that matters to our lifes. how many of us :
- remember to buy small gift to mother/father/parents?
- often say thank you each time people eases your pain?
- always reply a smile to a stranger?
- call and speak to our siblings?
- undividingly gives away some portion of earning to charity?
- remembers to treat our loved ones?
- appreciate petty things in life?
the list can go on. because that much of matters we tend to forget. FORGETTING, is our common diseases that much would not talk about. very few of us often do some reflection on 'where we are', 'what we have achieved' and 'what is the sole purpose'. sometime, what we all need in the time of lack of motivation, is just some self-reflection or reality check. the time we spend everyday on Facebook is incomparable to the time we spend with ourselves or family or even friends.
value of life is much under-rated and not appreciated. till death apart us from terrestrial life, the value of life and present time is clueless to our thought. we dont think about anything essential to our soul-satisfaction. we behave more like a train that focus so much on speeding on parallel railway without realizing it is wearing/hurting itself
