Fast Tracking

Hello world,

I know I don't blog often. And actually have decided that I'll only blog when I feel that it is needed :D

So, Fast Tracking.

Have been thinking about life and relationship as per usual. And have been thinking bout what makes a successful relationship or even life.

Then BOM! Just realized that our generation wants everything Fast Tracked. We have forgotten that life is about learning and growing and building. We want the best in technology, the best in transportation (cars), the best job and the list goes on and on.

I know we all deserve the best. But if only we can step back and realize that our parents actually work for all the things we have and most of them started off with nothing. Well, my parents did anyways. And so, not going on a holiday ever year is ok, not having a nice car but having to share a car or a smaller car, that I'll eventually have a good partner/ relationship and so on it is all ok.

Realizing that wealth can be slowly built up. And relationships, it starts with friendship. If relationships do not start with friendship and starts on infatuation or feelings of love, what happens to the relationship if love sort of subsides? The relationship is then reduced to oblivion. The reason for this conclusion is the mere fact that love is as many feelings are, here one day and may go the next day.

As such, if the relationship was based on a friendship to start of with, it will be able to sustain in the long run. Reason for this, simply because we are, as humans, as I would hope friendship is, more willing to compromise, to give and take, to build on and grow the friendship and to support one another.

So yeh, that's my spill on an epiphany I had this morning. :D Do comment and most of you have me on fb so do let me know what you think. As am in the growing process of understanding relationships. I don't think I've put across what comes to mind as succinctly as I should. But hopefully the gist is there :D

In conclusion, what's the point of rushing things. Enjoy life and look and plan for the future but do not rush foundation building and essential steps in life.
