Its Not Always About You

Its never cease to amaze me how people are so caught up in themselves and never once consider that its not always about them. There are so many other matters at hand to be considered, but to them it really doesn't exist. That's until you do something that's out of the ordinary just to get their attention and to allow them to see how selfish they really are. I did that two days ago to someone whom I rreally love and admire as a human being. Its been today's since I last turned my cell phone own consistantly. I am contemplating how long before they realize its not always about them and that they will see how they have literally step all over my intent and genuine concern for them? What I find astonishing is the fact they are exhausting all forms and kinds of rationale to try and ascertain why I haven't called or text them. Its rreally kind of sad to see such a person I held high esteem for to be so selfish cruel and unaware of how much I don't need them in my life and how much they do need me in their life. Its not always about this! Its not always about that! Its truly about how you contribute to life around you in order that those same contributions return to you before you call it a day and you lay down to sleep in hopes of arising to the dawn of a new day...
