Wasted

     Many times, I worried about a lot of things like an application submitted to a certain office, travel plans for next month, possibilities of keeping my job or visa application status. My worries sometimes affect my ways of doing things. Worse, they held me to accomplish so many little things that need to be completed everyday. I overlooked so many beautiful things like  a smiling friend, a new rose petals in my garden or the simple wag of my dog's tail. I only saw the gloomy side of life.

    I simply missed lots and lots of moments that I could had been spending enjoying the so many blessings I have. What a foolish way of neglecting life! What an irresponsible action to utilize time! How many are not lucky enough to see another day of their lives? How many has no capacity to explore and grab the beautiful flower in front of them? How many has no way of seeing the lively blue color of the sky? How many has never heard the sweet singing of the doves and cardinals? Alas! Here I am. I am capable of enjoying everything yet I am so fool to neglect them. I had wasted too much time worrying about things beyond my control. I had wasted moments that have not yet given to me. I am glad, I finally knew that my treasures are wasted.
