selfishness .. through my eyes

the only people who are selfish are the fish monger who sells fish in the market !!!


that is not the point .. selfishness is a talent and you a whole amount of it .... including me and the fish monger in the market!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it is normal to be selfish .. is it an emotion or a habit formed even before we pop out from our mother's womb .... i am not making any sense of it .. why do we become selfish ?


maybe you got hurt along the way or your sister or brother was selfish towards you and it went on for awhile and then it was payback time.. how about if we payed it back with kindness ... just forget about being selfish ......


i don't understand .... people are taught differently .. unlike you or me .. it matters a lot to me because i was not brought up that way .. selfish in sharing a toy when i was a little girl .... yes but it goes away as you get older .. perhaps when you understand better , maturity enters in ....

so then ,what is the true art of selfishness ? i cannot answer it for you but what i can do is .. to reflect upon my life quietly and then only will i find or seek the answer ....

through selfishness comes great strides in self worth and as we move along and change it in us , we can become one .... with Jesus anything is possible ..
