We care about oxygen only in its absence. It teaches us a true nature of human being. We don’t care, what we have in abundant or free. May be the free is more precious than anything else, still we neglect it just like our health. We all know we cannot survive without air and water. Still, we rarely take any steps to plant new tree or conserve water. When was the last time you consciously saved water? Similarly we ignore the precious relations with out friends or family members. We realize the importance after we miss out.
Likewise, the growth stock gets ignored. The analysts doesn’t cover them until they are five fold or ten fold. They keep on highlighting the hot stocks. Just like we keep running behind some useless materialistic wants. The true happiness lies always inside us or in front of us and we continue to search it at other far away places. We like the complex things which we don’t understand instead of simple things, which is easier to understand and follow.
Life is simple but not easy.

We buy things we don’t need to show off to the people who don’t care, instead of buying things that we really need. At times we don’t even know the things which are important to us as we don’t put on efforts to think. When was the last time you thought what’s most important to you? Or did you just go with the flow after observing what other human beings are doing in your surrounding?
We would spend a lot of time searching for the things we want to buy or for searching for the coupon codes to get some discounts. If we applied the equal amount of time to search a boring stock* or think what we really need, we would have been happier and healthier.
Until then…
