our little world….

Why is it that people always become so consumed in their own lives that they fail acknowlege anything else. A broken relationship, a failed exam, a horrible mistake and we think its the end of the world.  If only we would remember to take one tiny step back and look outside of our little world, maybe then we’ll realize how small we really are.  Not to say that we are insignificant or our problems are meanlingless, I mean they do directly affect us.  But…speaking strictly for myself, spending so much time and energy, getting so worked up about something that when compared to just trying to stay alive, seems so trivial.  We dread that we have to make choices, figure things out, when others hope and pray that they had a choice.  When will we ever learn to step out of our little bubble and acknowledge that there’s more to life then us?
