I'm writing this based on the recent happenings with me. I'm not describing the incidents, but writing this in general
We live in a pathologically dissatisfied world and I'm going to tell you why because we love to compare. Go around the world and you will discover that people aren't happy with their bodies.
Indians want to be fair complexioned like westerners and so buy beauty enhancement stuffs, westerners want to own bronzed bodies like ours and so purchase tanning lotions.
Those with moles have them removed, while who don't surgically implant beauty spots. Some people want to shed some pounds ans some to put on some baby fat to look like a model.
When are we going to stop and simply be happy with how we look? I tell you, we live in a sick world. Yes that sickness is comparison. Take a look at wealth. when we drive our old car, it really suits us fine. In-fact are blessed when the rain pours outside. But the moment we see our own office mate or neighbors, drive his classy 4 wheel drive, we automatically feel like we are third class children of god. Next time we drive our noisy , rusted bumpy car, notice how the defects come out all of a sudden? We feel deprived, dishearten and dispossessed.
Listen carefully. Billgates total assets are worth billions of dollars. Thats more thab the GNP of somesome small countries. Amithabh and Sachin earns Lakhs n lakhs by simply smiling on the TV commercial and other stares just in thousands. MY POINT?
No matter how hard you work, there are people who will be richer than your are. And there will be some people who will be more beautiful, have more money and have more problems.
Try it for once, Stop looking around and don't compare.
Dont compare her nose with yours, don't compare his money with yours, Don't compare friens girlfriend or wife with yours. Stop comparing and start living and you will be happy with your life.
This is crucial, the most difficult thing in the world is to be who you are not. Pretending and trying to be some one else is the official passtime of the human race since history. I don't think dogs, cats and other animals have this problem and the easiest thing in this world to be YOU.
BE HAPPY
There must be a reason why god made you tall or short or thin or bumpy all over.
