V-A-L-U-E
Focus on what value a person can bring
I came across this phrase in an article and it immediately caught my attention. These 8 words speaks volume and can be relatable in so many ways.
It can be looked at two ways. Either we are the "person" or literally seeing it as "another person". The latter would relate to how we look at the people around us. How we view the people that we work with, the people we talk to, the people we spend time with or even our own loved ones, our families. Do we see beyond who they are as a person? do we really value what and who they are as a person? Think about it.
Recently I experienced a hiccup in my career, and a few days after that difficult ordeal, i came across that article and it seemed as if the article was written for me. How often do we always strive to be perfect and in that way, try to be the correct at all times...so much so that when bump happens, it hit us hard because we were so focussed on the perfectness that we forget the reality of life; that there is always two sides to a coin.
And that is just what it is all about. we focus so much on being perfect, being on the "right path" that we are blinded of the meaning of what we are doing what we are doing. We forget the value and virtue in the things we do. And that phrase speaks just that.
The similarity in both situation is just a 5 letter word. V-A-L-U-E.
Whether value as a noun or value as a verb. both matters. Just prioritise the one which you think is more important to you and work from there but concurrently, not choosing one over the other. When both forms of value takes precedence over the other, you will lose the real value in the end. Yourself.
Think about it. It is hard to digest, but it is important that we are aware of this to make the most out of our lives.
The year is ending. Make the most out of it and strive to be better in the year to come.
Help us God. Amen.
