Thoughtful SMS

People r made to be loved and things r made to be used. The confusion is in the world bcoz... People r being used and things are being loved.

I received this text message on my phone some days back. Since then I have been thinking over it, and the more I think, the more I am convinced that every word of this sms is so true!

We are definitely in that age, where most of the time we are using people and loving things. Probably, it’s because for the thing we have paid a heavy price and people are free, even when they are not free as in the case of an employee, we want to use them because we have paid for their services. So in every situation, we are using people and loving materials.

This attachment towards our mobile, laptop, TV, car, ornaments, net and even orkut is taking us far from our loved ones. Talking about orkut, we see a column under ‘Personal’ 5 things I can’t live without, most of the times we see people writing family, friends, kids, animals… which makes humans, things. Ofcourse things cover everything but why is there nothing to differentiate between things and living being.

Really, once we clear our mind of this confusion, everything will go smoothly in our lives. Love people and use things, never the other way round!!
