All of us are so much busy in our lives that sometimes we take the people in our lives for granted. They may be our parents,friends,relatives,neighbours or spouse. We keep on running the race of life ignoring the fact we are missing something very precious in return. Have we ever thought of spending sometime with our parents simply talking about day to day affairs or anything we feel like? Or spending an evening with our friends as we used to do when in school or college? There are many such simple pleasures which we are neglecting in our pursuit of success and our dream for attainment of greater goals.
We are also forgetting that the persons who are with us now may not be there with us always neither will be the time which is lost. And by the time we realise(if we realise) it might be too late for us to be able to do something. Many of us don't get the opportunity of realising it also.
Can I say we all are being selfish? Then some us can object that whatever he or she is doing is for their family only, for there better future. Its not that we don't love our family or friends its just that we have become so busy achieving our goals that we are ignoring those persons for whom we are struggling so much. This is such a fact that all of us know but are ignoring it. We think that we will make them happy when we would have achieved something in life. But the problem is this at every passing time our goals change and we aim higher. So we never get the time.
Whatever we are doing may be good but we have to rework on setting our priorities. So that at the end of our lives we shouldn't be left alone pondering on things we could have done for near ones which we didn't and now we couldn't. In today's fast paced life we may try everything we want to fulfill our aims but not at the price of being so far away for the persons who mean a lot to us.
It will be better if we realise this fact as early as possible before we lose someone so close that we will be left repenting our entire life.......................
