(Warning.This is a really boring post.Unlike most of my posts which may be witty and funny and what not this is absolutely non of those. its sort of serious and totally tries to make a point. If you ask me it tries to hard. But anyways. Enjoy)
I do not even know how it happened but I found
myself sitting across an elderly gentleman discussing politics and the current
government in this country.
He said the he believed in giving credit where
it is due and while he may not agree with some of the policies or lack thereof
the current government he did not agree with an opposition that acted and spoke
like the government had done nothing.
Placing my own political views and bias aside I
agree. I believe that everyman should receive due and fair recognition for his
work and such.
I believe all that even for those that we have
little regard, we must pause and applaude them when they do something noteworthy.
I don’t think the past successes should be a
constant way point for us when weaknesses and failures are pointed out. Instead
they should be encouragement and proof that we can indeed do better.
My thoughts then wondered to my children. What
shall their world be like? What shall they complain about and what shall they
point out? What shall they be left with after all the potholes are gone?
And I realised to that with great success comes
great expectation and for those that have gone before we should not castigate
those that come after for being ungrateful for they have no understanding of
your ‘past’ tribulations and can complain about only what they perceive as
theirs even if in stark contrast to yours its frivolous and petty.
I wonder, truly, what shall be the subject of
complaint when all the potholes are gone.
(P.S see what i mean when i say boring. Yeah and you noticed the trying to hard bit right...its like so totally lame yeah..)
