First, they tell you just to be yourself, then they judge you. So, that’s the way: never fight with the pigs. They love it to make you ‘dirty’. Some people have the only thing in life that’s gossiping. That is nothing but scuttlebutt. Honestly speaking, I have a la-dida personality, just to show off maybe. But believe me, I never faked it. It seems like it is very impossible to exist who never lies within this world that’s full of white lies and grey lies. Remember that telling lies and be silent are two different things. Choose wisely.

Society nowadays!

“Don’t criticize them; they are just what we would be under similar circumstances”— Abraham Lincoln

Like every coin has two sides, each society has two sides! If a prestigious person is holding some position, the pity-minded people start questioning their deeds without realizing the circumstances and their curiosity goes skyrocketing and they become envious all of a sudden even the situation is not so serious. Yes, of course, they have the freedom and rights to do. But in this course, some of them are seriously lacking etiquette and some become mouth shut. Their motive lies to reach that height without doing anything and/or by any hook or crook to diminish them to hold that position. They think that these prestigious people are there without any hard works and sacrifices. I don’t blame anybody. I don’t think I am important enough to blame or forgive anyone. I am too late for this piece of stuff. Yes, they have the right to do anything with their life but it is also true to become self-aware in society. It is not helpful just to pass on some self-created notions. A peaceful discussion is necessary.

You can point out them everywhere in your family, neighbor, school, college, office, or any social gathering. They are all run for covers. They never read or even they never show any courtesy towards each other. They have picked up the lines and memorize them so well that you can’t argue with them. They want to cut to the chase. I like to believe that: they enjoy their life. Well for them.

We all have the freedom to do fruitful things with our lives. Without freedom life becomes dull. Freedom means the opportunity to think and decide without the interference of anybody. Freedom does not mean doing anything without any concern for the laws or social customs. Freedom brings us all together. We forget to celebrate it. We are so obsessed with ourselves that reflect in our society. I told it as a socially aware person.

If you can’t give her wings to fly, then let it go. Birds are not free since man invented cages. Freedom means the absence of undue interference from others. Judgment is also called ‘common sense’, the ability to make considered decisions or come to sensible conclusions by considering all. Why is ‘Lady Justice’ a woman and not a man? The symbol incorporates a woman and not a man because the woman represents ‘continuity’. A woman gives birth and so carries within her no less than the future itself. The blindfold is there to represent ‘purposive blindness to personal bias’. That is the difference. Do all men (gentlemen) also think like that? I wonder. What do you say?

Silence and Respect

“Silence is the loudest cry for love”— Unknown

Silence makes your mind empty. Emptiness makes room for new things. When you lack the quality of self-love. You suddenly feel lonely. If you care for others more than yourself, then it will only make problems for you. Others will taste your water and take advantage of you. Use you as a doormat. They never see your genuine quality. But Positive feelings or actions showed towards someone or something considered important or held in high esteem or regard. It conveys a sense of admiration for good or valuable qualities. And it is also the process of honoring someone by exhibiting care, concern, or consideration for their needs or feelings. Thanks to all of them to be present in your life in your bad and good times. Also, thanks to your critics that they show you what not to do which are not best for you. Self is the best critic I must say. Be grateful for what you have and what you have not.

Courage and Confidence

“Courage conquers all things: it even gives strength to the body’’— Ovid

It is very hard to pursue courage within a long successive failure after failure. Courage is like a loving-mother who nourishes you. It gives you a survival pill in uncertain times. It takes an act of huge courage to do something great. Some people may call it a bee in his bonnet. There is no living thing that is not afraid when it faces danger. True courage is in facing danger when you are afraid. The truth and courage are not always helpful to you and others. The opposite of courage is the behavior in accordance with socially accepted conventions. It is called conformity. The opposite of courage is not cowardice. When you don’t have self-confidence, you can feel inferior, isolated, depressed, confused, sensitive, and fail.

Resilience and Adversity

“The oak fought the wind and was broken, the willow bent when it must and survived.” — Robert Jordan, The Fires of Heaven

In genuine life, we for all time have to be have the two qualities in life: One is resillence and toughness. Within the time of misfortune in life, we need to select shrewdly to preserve and adjust your flexibility and durability and demonstrate it ourselves and not to awe others. Versatility is critical since it gives individuals the quality required to prepare and overcome hardship. Those missing strength get easily overwhelmed, and may turn to unfortunate adapting mechanisms. Resilient individuals tap into their qualities and bolster frameworks to overcome challenges and work through issues. Mental durability may be a degree of person versatility and certainty which will foresee victory in each range of life.

Sense and Sensibility

“It is not what we think or feels that makes us who we are. It is what we do. Or fail to do.” — Jane Austen, Sense and Sensibility

To emphasize the emotional and sentimental nature of people or their rational endowments. Which one is best? I would say both are best. People are adaptive. That’s why we are human. Don’t confuse your emotion and rational thinking with other people. When you tend to have the same level of thoughts, you attract the same-minded people. If you not, then contrasting thoughts will clash in your own mind. Keep calm and focus on your thoughts that are coming and going. Ultimately, you will choose what is best for you lastly. Because you only know what is good for you at that particular time of adversity.

Pride and Prejudice

“Pride may be allowed to this or that degree, else a man cannot keep up his dignity.’’ — John Selden

Partiality is an preposterous loathe of a specific bunch of individuals or things or a inclination for one bunch of individuals or things over another. Yes, we all confront this in our life. Nothing is modern. I am not born yesterday. I know how it feels. It is our obligation to have pride in our possess works but moreover know the other side of the preferences. We are social creatures. We are able communicate. That’s how we develop and learn from each other indeed from ourselves. One of the leading qualities people have is tattling. Yes, you examined it right. So, utilize this advantage for positive development and advancement as a entirety.
