This is a repost. Hope it makes those who are lonely on Valentine's Day feel a little bit better..
It does It does!
Its really good one, all the incidents have happened I know!
My elder cousin brother was a good looking chap , young but he was diagonised with a kidney problem, it failed! at the mere age of 26, he had to do dialysis every month or something!
He lost his valor, jest to live and face others! He doesn't socialize anymore! I miss the ols him, but I don't know what I can do to make him feel better! He takes every thing as "sympathy/pity" for his situation.
now he is way better! but he reminds me tht anything can happen anytime!!
Very well said :) Where is the tag ?

[:)] surprising that the level-headed-always-planning-for-something- Sneha Desai has written " live like there is no tomorrow and dont worry" ! turning a blind eye to a probable problem doesnt take it way. Having learnt it the hard way, I can say Live life to the fullest but care about your future ... every moment you have lived is a million dollars each BUT every moment you will live is priceless ! so enjoy it wisely !
Loved this..! Its so relative to what I always try to say .. ! Had written a poem long back as why we complain about small things ..kinda smiliar to this post .. Check it :) - http://musheer.blogspot.com/2005/11/why-me.html
Good one. So true!
I remember having read this post on ur blog, when I was a quiet visitor, who merely read and thought about it to myself rather than commenting!
n yes..when we look at the Big Picture, the things we cry about seem way too trivial!Our generation is so much more demanding and has a tendency to remain unsatisfied...ie is good wrt some things but very bad wrt certain things!
n yes, yes, yes rgdg living like today is the last Day..infact thats the same thing I have written under my blog title!
PS: Hope u had a nice day yesteray :)
Buddy, if any of my friends feel sick of life, I'll recommend your name as a pshycologist without a second thought.
'Make it count' is good advice.
