What’s something most people don’t understand? – An interesting thought and question from the daily prompt.

I revisited a list on this question I did 2 years ago, and I think the following are still true.

• How lucky most of us are. If you want proof go to a children’s cancer ward, war zone, or cemetery. Have some appreciation for life, safety and health.
• How important it is to use the time we have wisely and in the right way. Well, maybe this one is just me.
• How very interlinked as human beings we are. Separating us by color, ethnicity, or religion is WRONG. We are one. We need to stop the HATE.
• We are going to destroy the earth if we aren’t careful.
• That the job is just a job, it doesn’t define you, it provides a living. Yes, you can be proud of your work but don’t live for it, unless it’s your life’s passion.
• That love takes work and effort. If you put little into it, you will get little in return.
• That you aren’t connected with your face in your smartphone all day.
• People used to understand the word Compromise, but that has been removed from Webster’s.

But as always, I’ll try to update this with hopes I’ve learned something more after 2 years.

• Most people don’t understand how things really work.
• Some people don’t understand that money isn’t happiness.
• I didn’t understand the percentage of people that could be willfully ignorant.
• I’m surprised at the number of people who worship and idolize the wrong people or things.
• I bet most people don’t understand Bitcoin. Even a lot of those in it. I guess the same could be said of the stock market.
• Why do people get so wrapped up in online influencers?

And some people don’t understand the sound of the waves is all some people want to hear.
