life is a funny thing …. one goes thru it almost like its backwards … nature gives us beauty, youth at a time our mental powers cannot enjoy those things. always insecure, full of judgments, and never happy…
then one day we wake up many many days later and finally realizing that none of those things ever mattered. life is as one wants it to be. doesnt matter what other people thinks …. but before one can come to that conclusion, youth, beauty has evaporated.
now i have to come to terms with all the failings i went thru as a young person. how i long to have this old mind, in my youthful body. how much more of life would i have enjoyed if i possessed all the knowledge i have today. what i mean by knowledge is not the academic type, but more of maturity.
now i dont judge anyone, coming to an understanding that we all grew up differently, with different values. one cannot thrust one’s beliefs unto another being. we just have to try to understand the other person , then everything will be so much easier.
expectation is also a very bitter value. some taught me that to be successful one has to have very high expectations of everything … but now i know that expectation is the cause of most miseries ..
