LIFE IS BUT A DREAM

LIFE IS BUT A DREAM

1 December 2015

The majority of us (basically all of us) are so busy with our lives that we forget what really is around us. We are either working, studying, cleaning, driving and whatever else but I think a lot of people forget that we weren't born just to pay bills. 

How many of us have used this line "I'm tired" or "I don't have time"? Literally all of us have. I have come to realise there is nothing more important than family and friends. I would rather have a crazy family and yes you know what I mean! That crazy uncle that always talks about politics or your non existent love life and that aunty who compares you to your "amazing" cousin or has something to say even though her opinions are irrelevant.... 

I would rather have that then have no family members because lets face it, come 15 years later you will all be together and speaking about memories that only your family know! Same goes with friends, they are a reflection of you. You are who you surround yourself with.  Working is not life. Studying is not the end all be all. In life you will always have to make compromises and one thing you know is that you will have is your friends and family. 

Recently I have see the power of having a family. The way we all joined together to support one another and how we dropped everything to be there for each other. The same also goes for friends, I have seen how we all care for one another and will be there to support one another.  Now if you don't call that unconditional love then I don't even know what it is. 

Moral of the story is life is too short, there's more to life and it definitely is a dream. Make time. Go to those long family gatherings. Meet friends. If you need to say something say it. If you miss someone then let them know. MAKE TIME. There is no such thing as being so busy that you can't make time because before you know it, you might not even get that time again.
