Random questions

1) Why is it that we give more importance to professional deadlines than personal ones?
Like, we quite comfortably postpone 'talks/meetings with friends/children/spouse/parents/siblings because we are under 'tremendous work pressure'. Why don't we ever do the same with meetings with bosses and clients (unless of course it is a medical emergency at home)?

2) Why is it that we trust our helpers at home with our children but not with our money?

3) Why is it that physical medical situations are graver and get more attention than mental woes? (And I think we really have enough proof to say that a happier mind often gives to a healthier body).

4) Why are we more keen to give a few doses of medicines than a few big tight hugs?

5) Why is it that monetory cost benefit ratio immediately put our actions in place and other cost-benefit ratios like health, environment etc don't motivate us likewise? (Why even compare cost of organic food and inorganic food??)

6) Why do we look down on 'lucky charms' if all they do is give us some peace and confidence? Albeit, illusionary if you want to argue - but have we defined the real in any sense at all?

7) Why is it that we share happiness more publicly than our sadness? Why are we so shy and embarrassed of our sorrows?

8) Why is it that we cry watching movies but hardly ever when we see children on the street in pain?

9) Why is it that we 'manage' most things in our lives rather than 'living' them?

10) Why is it that a classmate can be your friend, often your 'best friend' but your colleague cannot?
