The Difference is Perspective

Poetic or philosophical?

By Rohitha LankaPublished about a year ago • 1 min read

In fact.. people who are "happy"

and people who are.. who are.. sufferings are slightly different.

1. One person.. looking for what is missing

Another person.. happy with what is there

2. One person.. just sits and feels sorry for the person who left

Another person.. thanks for the person who is still by their side

3. One person.. just looking for a way to forget

Another person.. understands what happened

4. One person.. refuses to change

Another person.. understands that.. everything must change

5. One person.. just thinks that.. they are worthless

Another person.. sees.. the person who knows their own worth

6. One person.. speaks without thinking to the person they love

Another person.. thinks before speaking to the person they love

7. One person.. only looking for love

Another person.. understands that.. in reality, not having a lover does not cause suffering

8. One person.. only thinks about possession

Another person.. understands that.. not possessing will not result in loss

9. One person.. runs away to the edge of the sky to.. extinguish suffering

Another person.. learns that.. Suffering is in the heart

10. One person... keeps everything in mind

Another person... forgives everything before going to bed

... Where there is love, there is ''suffering''

Everything... is suffering...

Therefore...

Make... every second the most valuable

Not... for others...

But for ourselves... So that...

''We don't have to regret it'' later...
