Little Things That Matter

The little things that inspired the beginning of this blog were thoughts. Just thoughts.

Coming so far made me wonder how most of us rely on emotions to react to daily situations.

It matters so much for people to ask how we're doing. A simple gesture makes our day, it reminds us that there are people out there who still care.

In today's world, people don't realize how priorities, time and just actions can tell so much. A person can be having a sardine-packed schedule, but a few seconds of telling others that they still care matters. Time can be short, but a split second of action or words could change situations a 360 degrees around.

I've known that a simple hug can make one stop crying. An apology away from ego is all that is required to stop pain in any relationship. Forgiveness is the answer to letting go of hatred and revenge. Simple keys such as these are things we often ignore.

We tend to take people for granted. Human mentality as ours are sometimes thinking that they will always be there. At times, we think time can wait, people can wait. Little do we realize that time itself can't wait too long, and then, things change. We don't realize that the whole world could collapse, things could end, things we thought were there before would disappear. That's how we keep beating ourselves in the end for being a little too late.

Also, noticing little changes about others can change the way they think. Telling people how you feel about them in a positive manner no matter what counts. Being afraid makes you suffer. Be judged, but know that you've tried the best you could. Encourage one when they need it, you wouldn't know how much that little few words could gurd their courage. You wouldn't know how one day their success may source from the support you've given to them.

People around can throw so much hurts at us, but how much can we store? That pain, the only escape is to let go. I realized that having a bigger heart to love is better than preparing spikes. Sure, the pain remains when the opponent sees nothing, but deep within, a little bit of scars or tears. Still, we know these wounds heal us, restoring us into stronger and better people. Time is too short to hate, I'd rather choose to love.

They say embrace while in our hands, the little things we ignore slowly slip off our hands unknowingly.
