Valuable Items are Dropped at Owner’s Risk

Valuable Items are Dropped at Owner’s Risk

“I went over to the hospital with my wife this morning. We are actually expecting our first baby. She’s been over 40 weeks old and complained that she felt the baby was not moving as it should. To her the baby in her womb is the most valuable thing to her right now and she can’t afford to take chances. I hope you get where I am going? We were asked to go for a scan and it was while I waited at the lounge around the reception after raising my head up that my sight caught attention of the inscription on the wall. It read “valuables are dropped at owners’ risk”. My son is now six months old and is really a treasure which I don’t intend to drop.

Every day we drop a lot of valuables from our lives and continue as if all is well with us. I hope it is really. It is impossible to live life dropping every positive and valuable attributes in our lives and expect to be going on a meteoric rise.  What are the valuable things in your life that you have dropped consciously or otherwise? Your smiles, attention, commitment, dreams, skills, talents passions and goals are some valuables you should pick up wherever you have dropped them. Pick them up once again and start living.

What is life if we can’t live our dreams? What is life if we forget our purpose? What is life if we do not appreciate the important things in our lives? A lot of people claim that things are not going well with us in life. We claim that life is only show us its ugly side but we fail to reflect on everything that has made us happy that we have abandoned. Refusing to do your routine exercises might increase your health risk. Refusing to serve your customer s effectively might increase your employment risk. Refusing to be nice to your spouse may increase your divorce risk.

Close your eyes and reflect on all the things that are important you that you have dropped. Imagine yourself getting them all back. How do you feel? Live your dream and pick up your valuables once again. Every day opens up itself to help you. Give life a chance and start living once again. Take back your valuables. Pick up that attitude once again. Be joyful once again. Be purposeful once again. Don’t be overwhelmed by what you don’t have but look at what will come back to you if you start to pick up those valuables you have dropped over time. It is a choice to be happy. People are the most valuable things in my life. I have decided to start repairing broken relationships. I am calling long lost friends and apologizing for neglecting them. I am picking up my books once again and pouring my heart out. Please follow me to doing the same. Remember the important things in your life and start doing them right away. Nobody will make your life special more than yourself. Pick up your valuables and start living life to the fullest. I see you on top of your riches.
