been thinking alot this past days. dont know why.
why is it that people only treasure things only when they have lost it? maybe thats human mentality. when you have it, you tend to take it for granted that the particular thing/person will be with you always. you've simply forgotten how hard and painstakingly you've fought or done just to have that particular thing/person. when you've lost it, the memories of how you fought for the thing/person all resurfaced in your mind and remorseful starts growing in you.
cant people treasure what they have? everyday you hear complains from different people, about this about that about everything under the sun. and yes, it makes sense to you. you agree with the complainers. but what can you do? what can the complainers do? keep on complaining like an asshole?
once a cab driver told me. 20 years ago he had a friend who was driving taxi. he keeps complaining about the government, customers, traffic etc. he swore here and there that he doesnt want to drive a cab anymore. 20 years later he's still driving a cab, and everyday complain complain and complain. and still keep on driving the cab that he complains about. sounds contradicting right. you might think the cab driver is stupid or what. before you even think about that, think whether you've done the same thing before. definitely a yes.
why cant the cab driver think of his situation in another way? he could have compared himself to people living in those countries like India and Indonesia. isnt that better?
maybe thats human. they're nv satisfied with what they have. they ask for cars you give them. the next time they'll ask for a house. you give them a house the next time they'll ask for dont know whatever shit thats getting more and more expensive.
i'm not a philosopher or what. i'm just telling people how i feel. thats it.
go die.
