Simple Huge Blows

the little things create huge impacts to us.

i remembered, a friend sent me a text message saying that when our big dreams did not materialize, the emotional blow of it is actually nothing compared to the unmet small dreams we have nurtured.

why?

simply because they seem so personal, seem to be so close to us.
seem so simple, seem to be so attainable,
it seems so realistic but we were never able to bring it to reality.

i can attest that.
the simple things are usually the reasons for huge conflicts,
it is the simplest of things that gives me headache.
it is the simple things that compel me to go beyond what i can offer.
it is the simple things that hurt me a lot.

people often take for granted the simple things because for them, they are literally simple.
simple, like it is just easy to forget and so simple for one to really take time and effort to remember.
