It all seems so trivial
This week we were allowed to blog about whatever we felt like. To be honest, I really don’t feel like writing about anything. When you experience loss, it all just seems so trivial. We are so caught up on getting ahead, being up on the latest trends, trying to be ahead of the curve, but none of this really matters in the end.
Being so caught up in this race to be the biggest and the best, we tend to forget what is truly important in life. Family, friends, and being with the people in your life who love you for the person you are- that is what’s important. We learn about advancements in technology and strategies to deal with crisis situations, but none of it matters when the people who matter most are gone.
I am guilty of being so caught up in the chaos that I forgot how important it is to stop and enjoy the simple things in life. Reflecting upon the life of a person that I love and on my own, I can’t help but wonder what was so important that I couldn’t be with her more during the time when she needed me the most. To be honest, I could not think of a thing.
So, since we were allowed to blog about anything this week, I ask anyone who reads this to stop to appreciate the people in their life that matter most. Because, you never know when that day will come when you turn around and they aren’t there to comfort you.
