Change urself!

Sometimes you don’t know if should change others to suit you or should change yourself to suit others.
If you change others, that is pure meanness of your heart..if you change yoursef, it is a compromise.
If your friends want you to change, introspect whether it is a desred change. If a stranger wants you to change, ignore it; the person has no authority to do that.
If you want your friend to change a certain thing, introspect and see if it’s a desired one, would not changing it make him/her a lesser gud friend of your’s?
If you want a stranger to change something to be able to become your friend, forget it; it’s just not worth the effort.
At the end of the day, we are all humans subjected to change and evolution. We just happen to meet people on this journey of ours called ‘life’ who make this process of change faster or slower.
I’m expecting an array of confused looks after people read this post. None of anything stated above is based on some statistics or research done on test cases. It’s all straight from my heart and experience. So, I do not expect anyone to try to ‘change’ my opinion. 🙂

The other side!

This happens to be one of the most progressive periods of my life so far and yet immensely unbearable! When I thought I was on cloud nine, (thud!) I was dropped on the ground to face the reality.

It’s not as dramatic as it seems but yes it surely marks a turning point of my life in some way.

I’m riding high on my bad luck n confusions and they seem to have become an integral part of my life 🙂

So, a very small snippet of the whole thing that happened today when I was super low on my confidence and super high on traits like envy, anger, frustration,discrimination,etc etc. Obviously all of that was self assumed and I had pretty vague logic for all those feelings.

And then my friend had me rediscover the other side of the coin. I was literally brain washed and yes in the right sense. He asked me to look at things differently and from a different perspective. He asked me not to judge some one’s opinion by how I feel about the matter but by what the other person would have on the mind.

Not that all this was alien to me but it was the first time when I had to practice what I have preached earlier.

Not that I’m oblivious to the fact that a coin has two sides but it was the first time I had to look at the other side while still facing the torturous one side!
