Change focus lights from distant relations to near relations
Each individual is surrounded by a web of relationships that form distinct circles. The closest circle encompasses loved ones, followed by family, friends, and a broader social network. Akin to a car’s headlights casting a distant glow, people’s focus often falls on the more distant circles. This dynamic can lead them to invest substantial effort in nurturing their connections with the broader social circle.
Regrettably, this emphasis on outer circles frequently results in the oversight of the nearest one. Time constraints compel individuals to allocate their energy primarily to the fourth circle, then the third, and eventually, if feasible, to the second. By the time attention turns to the first circle, exhaustion—both physical and mental—has already taken its toll. This inadvertently leads to neglecting the nearest circle.
Ironically, when assistance is required—whether emotional, physical, or mental—those within the first circle are usually the ones who step forward to offer support. This highlights the dichotomy: while the closest circle is often overlooked due to external commitments, it is the same circle that steps up during times of need.
