It's Not Always About You


by Paco Arespacochaga



Don't even think that life revolves around you. Don't even think that YOU ARE THE CENTER OF THE UNIVERSE. With or without you, life goes on. When something goes wrong and when you think life is unfair to you, think again? It may not be the case.

The fact that you're reading this blog means life has been good to you! You're breathing while someone is on his deathbed clinging to life. You're connected to the web while other people haven't even seen a computer. You've got reading skills while others are being taken advantaged of because they don't know any better.

In spite of all of these, the world is NOT you!

Yet you can make a difference by touching lives. And the even better news is, you've got your whole life to do it! Start with your family... wife, husband, son, daughter, and then move on to your "middle circle".

Let other people lift you up. Your job is to lift them up.

If you embrace the thought that it isn't always about you, then you'll be able to see life differently and appreciate it even more.

...but I can only speak for myself!
