Don’t miss the donut by looking through the hole (Author Unknown)

Don’t miss the donut by looking through the hole (Author Unknown)

By erlymags (@cely/ @lovern)

This philosophy by an unknown writer is very inspiring. There might be many chances of improvements in your life yet you just take them for granted. Sometimes you ignore them thinking you are still young. Time flies fast and you do not notice the years behind you leaving the fortunes you supposed to harvest in the later years. There are so many times that you miss see the real thing and the right road to success. Our environment and technology sometimes are the bad influence in our lives. If your environment is full of chaotic activities sooner or later you like to join for fun and experience only to miss the many opportunities your life needs for old age. Technology is the highest form of exploitation if you cannot control your emotion and desire. There are so many things to explore through technology through its gadgets, computers, cellular phones, digital cams and so on and so forth leaving sometimes interest to decide which one you should prioritize. We cannot avoid getting exploited the trends of the time, yet discipline and control is a must to avoid addiction of your unusual activities. There are young and old easily get addicted to new gadgets and because of that they sometimes forget they have families to bond with, children to play with and wife or husband to communicate with most of the time to make their marriage bond stronger. Why look the other side when you are on the right side?

There are young people who refuse to see and court young girls in their town. They want to meet and court young girls of their age in other places. They forgot that courting a lady near you is the best option, for both of you know each other better, plus your parents are also friends. You know much about too your characters. It is not hard to adjust yourselves if by chance getting married; unlike if you marry girl beyond your knowledge for it takes the time to observe her / his character. You will also learn to love the attitude of the girl/boy’s parents and siblings. Those marriages broken have a wrong sighting of a partner. What they are attracted with is the face or the physical attraction of the person. It should be both outside and inside part of the person nice, friendly, patient, accommodating and has a very strong disposition in dealing with life as married and having children; and knows life, how to deal and ride on with it. Yes, we have ride on with life for if you do not have guts to play with it, life will depart from you. Those marriages broken are those having partners out of control, over control, or no control at all; thus many committed a suicide or leaving home for another man or wife. Why not try a neighbor to court and be yours eternally. My brothers married our neighbors. They have a very strong marriage for they already knew each others’ strengths and weaknesses, plus their parents are supportive and always extending their helping hands. Marriage at the beginning is not easy, it needs adjustments.

Somehow you become blind to see the truth. You are sighting other ladies when you are already engaged. Are you trying to break the tie or trying to create a joke that leads to injury and break-up? It is an insanity to look for another path when you are already on it, proven right and outwitted wrong. It is the impulse of man as born sinner as the probable ground for his weakness. But the mind is stronger than what the heart desires for. But if heart dominates then, it could weaken the whole forces of your being, thereby leading you to the path you want to taste and prove glorious, yet you are dispersed by the reality that you can never outsmart your destiny though we are the one making it, unless do and follow it in the right way, in order to have a triumphant destiny. Another shifting of your insight is the temptation. It is also a very strong force that misleads man to follow his right path unless the man is God-fearing and prayerful for he surely resists temptations. This word temptation has broken many marriages, has spoiled many youths, has influenced good to bad and has almost dominated one-fourth of the entire population of the globe. What is the best chance to hit the mark? This question is easy to understand but hard to follow by others. The hitting of the mark here means never to entertain people that like to exploit your life and get influenced with the wrong doings. If you are already walking in the valley of righteous, never allow yourself to step to the valley of sins for you will surely have few years to live.

Walking in the valley of sins would mean getting influenced with drug addiction that would destroy your life, family, and future. This kind of valley would also be equivalent to temptations that may ruin your marriage, and family. You can no longer repair a broken heart and fix a broken marriage. Those countries having divorced made legal, good for you for the other party cannot resist accepting and signing the divorced paper in the court of law, unlike in the country where I reside, divorce to be legalized was not granted by the Supreme Court. If I were the SC, I will listen to the side of the victims so they will know how hard to deal with life having an infidel husband or wife and likewise, and see how the children find it harder for them to see any of their parents suffer in distraught of hatred over love once cherished and bloomed and so suddenly died.

This philosophy whose author is unknown inspires me. I hope you too, feel the same way I do. You may add your insights should you happen to read this blog to whatever site you may belong. Thank you guys and let is never go astray.

    • I like that expression about doughnuts! It is better to look at the sides of the doughnut and not the hole only; looking at the positive sides of life instead of the negative ones.

    • @acelawrites, there are people like that. they want to try the road not yet taken to prove to themselves they are good only to regret far they are far behind with others whose minds are certain and fixed, lol. They better fix themselves than engaging more with activities not totally destroy their human lives.

      There are weird people by the way there are also minds cracked.

    • Others look at the other side despite already standing or in the right side of life. There are stupid people despite what they are going to thread is harmful they insist on threading on, What do we call them? Insane, right? They are called fools for they tend to keep away from the norm. Maybe they are carried away by their peers and technology.
      They should have dealt technology in the right way so their lives will prosper in whatever they want to do. sad amny are gone astray and become strangers to their own thinking.
