There were so many things in my youth that worried me. Only to realize later on that those were unimportant. Comparing grades, gadgets, shoes, clothes with classmates and friends. Terror teachers, anxious bosses, angry clients, envious colleagues. The list goes on and on. Thanks to age and aging gracefully. There is no need to compare lives with others. When I see people happy and successful, I'm happy too. When I see people struggling, I try to help in my own little way if I can and I say a prayer for them too. With aging, it's a realization that there are times that my circumstances are better than others, sometimes others are better in circumstances. But that's what life is all about. It's a journey. It never should be a contest. Life now is not just about school, workplace, home, and community, we have our virtual world. Sometimes these social networking sites are made as the venue to compare, evaluate, judge, ridicule the lives of people. This is our extended world, the Facebook. Facebook should never be a contest. Facebook is a venue for family and friends to connect, to offer our words of encouragement and inspiration, to celebrate the victory and joys of oneself and others. Let's connect, inspire and celebrate!
