    if only…why not…

    i was watching liverpool v villa match and by the end of the agony, i just had this phrase in my mind.

    if only alonso did not leave in the summer…
    if only gerrard scored in the first half…
    if only lucas was a bit more composed in midfield…

    in life, we have a lot of “if only” too

    if only i have more money to buy that thing…
    if only you can understand me better…
    if only he can love me more…

    the problem with this “if only” attitude is we will never achieve any difference. nothing will change. after 10 years, 20 years, 30 years, or even after an entire lifetime, we can hear some people say, “if only i had known earlier”.

    why not change our perspective of things? why not say “why not” and don’t say “if only”?

    why not i start to save and plan my spendings wisely so that i can buy that thing?
    why not i start to understand the people around me and build that bridge so that we can all become more understanding?
    why not i learn to speak his/her love language and not ask for returns but start to give?

    life is just so amazing. so many things can happen just becos we choose to say the right and postive things than the negative things..i rem pastor said before, life is full of choices, its our choices that shapes our decisions and our decisions shapes our future..
