IMPORTANT????

how important?? so important??? is it??? how to measure important??? why must it is called important?? in what ways things are considered to be important?? can people be important  too??? is it important for us to really understand the real meaning of the word 'important???? why the word even exists at the first place???

those are among the questions that were in my head this morning... and now that i have time to write about it.....i would like us..whoever this may concern......to think for a while....why the word important carries a deep meaning with it...

here is a direct meanings of the word 'important' :  -------->

           " Strongly affecting the course of events or the nature of things, Having or suggesting a consciousness of high position or authority (The American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language, Fourth Edition copyright ©2000 by Houghton Mifflin Company)"

            "of great significance or value; outstanding, of social significance; notable; eminent; esteemed, (when postpositive, usually foll by to) specially relevant or of great concern (to); valued highly (by) (Collins English Dictionary – Complete and Unabridged © HarperCollins Publishers 1991, 1994, 1998, 2000, 2003)"

so what i want to discuss is the role of the word important for people. yup...people like us...you and me and them and those who draw oxygen into their lungs and have other human characteristics..

this morning i asked myself..how important it is i am in my family.....???

how important it is i am in the society???

how important it is i am in the world???

and so forth....

so..the point is...there are people who risk their life just to make themselves important to others....there are also people who done nothing but is important to the eyes of society.....there are also those who work so hard  just to become important to the eyes of others....... so back again......to the fundemantel question of the day??? how important it is for us to make ouselves important to others????

my answer is although may not be a good answer but i am comfortable with it....

to me to become important is almost the same as to put ourselves with a bigger responsibilities....so the more important we want to be , the more responsible person we are suppose to be....if we try to be important wihtout getting ready with the responsibilities..then we will end up  being ignored by the society.... 

so lets make it clear to ourselves...where we want to put ourselves in the eyes of others..

based on my observation there 3 consequences concerning how important we are in the eyes of others..

1. not important   ---- people will ignore us, they will never care about us..and they will feel happy when we are not around

2. average ------- this is when we put ourselves in the middle of important and not important in the public eyes..people will have a balanced view on us... they will care for us as much as we care for them...but not until the level where they would listen to our sayings and thoughts....

3. lastly is important -------- people will listen to us, they will care for us..respect us..believe in our sayings.. happy with our presence...and they will eventually learn to appreciate us ( this happen only if we take full responsibilities upon how important we are in the society's eyes.)

so..i believe we have the freedom to choose which is us....among the aboves choices......if we choose not to be important ..then people will never care for us....but great people will choose to be important because the more important they become in the eyes of people ..the more important people will be in their thoughts and actions...that is how changes happened.....
