Appreciation


Appreciation means , to say ‘Thank you’ to another person. Nah , its not that simple.  Its not that complicated either actually. Truth is ,I’ve been raised in an Asian environment as well as typical Asian thoughts and reactions fed to me from a very young age. Its been said that,whoever gave birth to u,it is an absolute rule to appreciate and show gratitude. However , aren’t things always not that simple? I personally think it is the parent’s duty to be biologically program to love his own child.
Should they not care,raise and love it sincerely from the bottom of their heart’s instead of treating the child as a sense of duty only to be rewarded when they are grown up and are able to make a living. Isn’t it satisfying enough to know that your child that was raised by your own sweat and tears , all grown up and finally start his or her own family? What’s with the need for a reward? Or repayment from the child? That itself is proof of insincerity and a disgrace to the word love. Appreciation comes from the depths of the heart and the need to thank someone for everything he or she has done out of her obligation.
As long as the sincerity exist in an action done for somebody,no doubt the receiving end will be grateful and will show his or her appreciation. Unfortunately,these days it’s all about the money,it’s all about the duty. No more sincere feelings like Want , instead it’s Need,Must,Have to,Suppose to. It’s undeniable that , for example, I want to be with my family is way more sincere compared to I need to be with my family. The word ‘need’ shows that the freedom of choices doesn’t exist at all and is very similar to being forced to do something. Thus, if one knows about his or her lack of sincerity,it’s best to not do anything at all with that level of effort.
Speaking of appreciation,I would like to thank Bernice for upgrading this blog from a blank sheet of paper. Even added a ChatBox too! She didn’t need to do it, but she still did. So,thank you,really do appreciate it. Till next time.
