Are You Turning Your Back On What's Important In Your Life?


I took Katie to the the park this afternoon and I noticed something that bothered me.

There was a little girl who couldn't have been three years who was just wandering around the playpark...climbing on things that she shouldn't...and almost getting knocked out by the kids on swings.

Her mother was reading a book...with her back to where all of the children were playing!

Now...my values may be different to yours...but even though Katie is now seven...I would NEVER take my eyes off of her when we are out.

Who knows what can happen in that split second when you look away?

It got me thinking that there are some people who treat life just the same.

- They turn their back on the opportunities that come their way because they are too 'hard'.
- They are more engrossed in reading novels instead of focusing on what's important in their lives.
- They are too busy thinking of themselves to worry about how they could help others.
- They complain how 'unlucky' they are because they are never in the right place at the right time.

Are you one of them?

Are you looking the wrong way to look out for what's really important?

If you are...you'd better change...as otherwise, who knows how your life can change in a split second.
