deep breaths

there is so much that we take for granted, every moment, everyday...

we take for granted that we are alive, that we wake up each morning, having the whole wide world to greet, having people return our hellos and good mornings... perhaps, a lot of us don't even bother with greeting people to start with... to most of us, to have to wake up is a hassle, to have to go to work, meet people, go uni, school, whatever is a hassle... rather stay in bed, rather live in dreams....

yes we take for granted the beauty of being alive... the fact that we are alive....

we take for granted friends that care and try so hard to fit in with those who don't. we brush those that really love us for who we are and want only the best for us aside, making room for those who are not even worthy of being called friends.... why? why is it so that we never listen, never trust, always taking things for granted? thinking that everything we do is right, never stoping long enough to ponder what exactly is right or wrong....

wonder... is there really such a thing as wrong and right? is there really a distinction between those two? where lies the dividing line?

we take for granted that we are who we are, always tryin to be someone else, something else that we are not meant to be.... we are made to be unique, each and everyone of us being a special, irreplaceable being created in the glory of God, yet, there we go and try to be anyone but ourselves... and when we can't, we spend live thinking worrying that we can't....

what is this?

why must we loose things only then will we know it's value?
why?
