Most people are selfish these days.
Selfish about feelings, love, everything.
More concerned about how you made them feel.
Rather than how they might of made you feel.
More concerned with who they love.
Rather than who loves them.
More concerned with what makes them happy.
Rather than who they make happy.
Most people forget who they were 15 years ago.
Who they loved, where they were, what they wanted.
Most people dont realize if in that span of time,
If they have made a difference in someones life.
If they made a difference in their own lives.
Or if anything has even changed at all.
No one ever thinks of what they need.
Always concerned with what they want.
Want versus need, are two totally different objects.
I wonder how many people ever take the time to step back,
and look at the big picture.
Look at their surroundings, home, life, family, city, state, the world.
Does anyone take the time to notice the small things in life anymore?
Or even enjoy such things in life anymore ?
Are we so busy with what makes us more money, famous, richer, etc
That we forget everything else?
Can you remember what was your favorite smell was 15 years ago ?
What your favorite feelings was ? Favorite Sound ?
Can you remember what made you happy, that didnt include;
Cell phone, telephones, tv, cable, internet, video games, electronics ?
15 years ago, there were 3 people in my life, That I will always love, forever.
Forever will they be in my hearts.
When I think back, these are the thoughts, smells, sounds, feelings, I miss.
Things I cant ever have, but can only remember.
When I think about now what I want, what I need.
I want to give someone all my love, make them happy, comfort them.
I need to give someone all my love, make them happy, comfort them.
As well I want and need that in return.
Friendship, loyalty and trust, are all needs and wants.
Years ago, it was my time to be selfish.
But now I am not. That time has past.
Yet I find everyone else, its their time to be selfish.
I know who I was 15 years ago, and I understand how and why.
I now know who I am.
My heart is bigger and my soul is deeper.
And my person, has grown to appreciate everything it encounters.
