Selfishness

Sometimes I cannot understand why some human beings can be so selfish. In fact, ihis selfish species can be someone who is really close to you, with blood connection, share the same DNA profile ...so selfish to the extent I think it is forgotten that we are ONE FAMILY!!!

It is so sad to note this. While there maybe communication breakdowns at times in our lives, while we may have different perspectives in our lives, while we have our differences, are we not still a family?

What does FAMILY mean to you? Just a name? Or a burden to you? Or people whom you once loved? Responsibility? You have been so selfish till I could feel if you can, you just want to get away from us. Avoid us and ignore us. This is so damn bloody hurtful to think that it came from you.

Your family does not look down upon you. In fact your family will always be there when you need them. Sometimes, advices are being misinterpreted as nagging and lectures. Misinterpreted as scoldings. Heed advices offered by the elderly. As the young ones, we have nothing to lose. As the saying goes, "they have eaten more salt than us eating rice".

Criticism from your family does not mean they want you dead. It is in fact for your own good. If you can't take it, then no one is able to help you further.
