The thing that most of us are working tirelessly for family and not our own self tells a lot about everything you need to know.
I can't remember much about being selfish but I won't deny that I've never been selfish though I have always thought about others and have even dropped my dreams to pursue what's necessary to make it up for others.
And when I'm talking about being selfish it doesn't mean I went to that kind of height where you're taking someone else right, that is something beyond ridiculous.
The Selfish Acts That I Can Remember
Those were the golden days when I was just in 9th grade and we were having those classes and fun altogether but most of the time I used to skip school
I was that one kid who'll show up occasionally and never consistently, my attendance was the lowest amongst everyone but still I was good at picking up things quick so I got away with that kind of attendance
But during those tough days I had this friend who was the victim of me being quite selfish
Everytime when I used to show up after skipping somedays I used to take his notebooks for notes and when he just let me take one of those at home
I was again absent for next couple of days so now I ain't the only one left behind but he too was taking notes on a rough register instead of the notebook that was in my bag.
It used to be so often that he was like I know if I gave you books this time you won't come tomorrow and I used to do a lot of hustle to get it.
It was me being silly and selfish but I made it up for that act later when we were together by giving him a treat from the café.
I was quite selfish when
I wasn't that mature and used to have this silly wishes of mine like I need to get this gadget and that one so I'd insist to get me one of those to my mother
Not thinking about that I'm being selfish I have my younger brother who'd want same things if I kept up that behaviour
And honestly I don't have words how grateful and lucky I'm for having a mom who still got me things when it was difficult, those days are going to be with me forever
And have made me who I'm today when I put my family first it is because there was that time when I was being selfish and she did put me first.
So now when I do things for her it kind of makes me happy like it's a good thing to spoil mother with little things and taking care of the younger brother without being selfish anymore.
No one can tell me that I'm selfish now and I'm quite proud of being someone who's gonna do whatever it takes to keep everyone safe and happy around me and I guess that's all it matters now. Wonder what's your thoughts on this? Do share about it in the comments.
that's all folks.
