Reading lotus's journal

How can a life change so rapidly from meeting new people or discovering such special and wonderfully sweet people you never knew they were? You never know the depths of a person unless you want to. Unfortunately that's true in many societies, people are too concerned about what others think, there are too many labels, too many stereotypes and too many misconceptions. Everyone is missing out on everyone.

What is lacking are kind words, not for the purpose of exchanging them, that's just meaningless unless you really feel, but just from one person to another in honestly. But you can't say something true and nice unless you want to or need to, and that's what is absent. People do not realise how fantastic others really are because sometimes they don't want to and so don't see anything in them to compliment or even acknowledge. When's the last time you noticed something wonderful about someone or saw how much effort they put into the things they do? This isn't intended to be corny or stupid, it's just what I feel. People don't feel enough, and by the time they do it's too late.

There's too much frustration these days? I see people everyday stressed and unable to appreciate the simple things in life. Life is a gift, it's so beautiful, so why can't they see that? You should enjoy life for what it is, it's yours.

the end is the beginning.
