...AND YOUR FAMILY ✍️

 

Every Christmas and Easter, I receive a few messages that begin with this line...

'Wishing you AND YOUR FAMILY a wonderful Christmas / Easter.'

Looks like a very normal harmless message, doesn't it?...But what may seem extremely ordinary and regular to most people, 'rips my heart out' every single time.😢

Not just because it clearly indicates that it is a 'Blindly Forwarded' message, with no personal feelings attached; but also because, it shows an absolute 'Lack of Sensitivity', on the part of the people, who send messages like these.

Sadly, in most cases, these 'extremely heartbreaking insensitive messages', come from close friends; and often, from extended family too.🤷 

And each time, these messages make me 'wonder about and ponder on' so many things.

Why do people send wishes on days like these at all, if they are not even going to first, 'Read the Text' that they are sending across?

How can someone who is close enough to be your friend or even a relative, not even 'Think' how a text like that, would make the other person 'Feel'?

How meaningless and pointless it is, to actually send a wish like that across to someone, if all it is going to do, is deeply 'Wound' and 'Hurt' that person, especially on days, when they truly miss the ones they love, most of all.😒

But, 'That's Life' in today's world, I guess. A 'Disconnected World', in which people want to feel 'Connected', to just about everyone in the universe.

...and how do they do that? By sending 'Seemingly Personal', but actually 'Absolutely Impersonal' messages, to everyone on their 'Contact List', on occasions like these; often without even bothering to 'Stop' for a minute and 'Think' about, how generalised messages like these, could make a few 'SORE LOSERS' like me, feel.✍️
