Prioritize Yourself

           For each and every individual there are people in this world to whom they value more than themselves. They may be their parents, siblings, spouses, children or anyone else.

Happiness of the other individual is always given priority.

          A mom, in spite of her work and stress, each time prioritizes her children. She never says a no for the demands made by her kids. Her sacrifice cannot be compared to anything. A father too works day and night in order to get his kids a good standard of living, education and everything else.

           Without the proper support of the wife, even the best husband fails to flourish. A wife sacrifices her dreams and supports her husband unconditionally without expecting anything in return. She would be happy just to see a smile of accomplishment in her husband’s face.

         An elder sister starts to work part time during her college so that her younger brother can easily pay his school fee and concentrate on his academics.

           A young engineer who was posted for work at the foreign country skips his breakfast and other expenses so that he could send some extra money to his parents, who have toiled all their lives to give him a good education.

There are so many examples where other people are given more priority.

          Priorities for other close ones are stressed to that extent that after certain time, we fail to recognize ourselves. It would be considered as a duty to give priority to others and when the priority is diminished, it would be considered as something offending.

          No offence in giving priorities to others. But what’s the use of giving so much priority to another one where our own individuality would come to a nil?

          We must learn to value ourselves too, If not full priorities, we must at least keep a pinch of priority to ourselves.

After all, we too are someone important in this huge world.
