>> We should learn to avoid fussing over ‘little’ things and focus more on ‘bigger’ things instead.

>> We should know what things that are rightfully ours and what things that belong to others. We should also learn to treat what belongs to others with proper care (and with respect to the owner).

Like when we use other people’s stuff, do we always bear in mind that it doesn’t belong to us and thus, need our extra care until it’s returned to the rightful owner? Often, intentionally or unintentionally, we … forget.

>> Something that’s offered ‘free’ to us doesn’t always mean we ‘HAVE TO’ take it. At times, depending on the occasion and a particular circumstance, we may need to politely decline the offer. Of course, it doesn’t mean that we have to always reject ‘all’ offers too.

Ah, I do realise that sometimes things are not always just black or white.

And so I guess we just need to continually ask for God’s wisdom so that we can ’see’ with better understanding of the things that happen in our life, so that we can react to each situation accordingly. And with the right approach.
