It was during my random surfing of every account and every profile I have on all these insanely popular public sites that I came across 'Today's Fortune' that read :"Make yourself necessary to somebody".
It left me thoroughly perplexed as to the meaning of this statement. I mean, it sounds really nice and pompous, but how on earth are we supposed to do that? Like, duh! We obviously like to bask in the feeling that we are indispensable to someone, but how are we to make ourselves necessary to someone? Doesn't that seem as if we are asking to be used by someone, I mean used not in any derogatory way, but simply to be wanted when needed and not otherwise?
I think whoever has made this unfortunate fortune has missed a very crucial point.
The point that there are some other things which should be considered while determining how important we are in someone's life. Other things like love, trust and friendship.
Maybe next time someone makes such an ingenuous fortune, they'll be a little clearer as to it's meaning.

trust networking sites to come with such toss.
i mean,wouldnt you rather be good to someone and let him/her decide whether you're necessary or not.
i think the trick is to do good anyway :)
You echo my thoughts... :)
