Coming back to my point, today I heard people talking about how others should make a decision about a particular event, how they should behave with others, how they should talk.... the list goes big. I was thinking that, these people who made the comments.. did they ever analyse their decisions, behaviours etc and rectify them to adjust with the immediate family that they live with..forget relatives... Does a human being ever have a right to talk about how another human being should live? We can guide someome if we think that they are putting wrong steps, but we can never judge them on the basis of the steps they are taking... because for all we know... that could be the best step for their life!!.. There are exceptions in every case and here I am talking about the general mass and not exceptional scenarios !!
One more habit of people(sometimes including myself) that annoys me, interrupt any conversation in the middle and abruptly stop the conversation of the person who was talking and immediately start with yours OR when there is a discussion happening about a subject everyone is eager to share their experiences and thoughts and least bothered to listen to others !! Sounds pathetic.. isnt it? Are we all such a impatient people OR is it self-assertion??? I think its both.
Todays incident has strongly clutched in my mind and what I have learnt is henceforth I will consciously not involve myself in any such useless discussions of accusing ,blaming or making judgements about others. When I do this the only question keeps echoing in my mind always is.....afterall who am I to accuse others or who am I to set any rules on how one should behave?
This post might not make any sense to most of the narrow thinkers.. but who cares.. I am not here to convince anyone...

Nice post and you make all the sense! Its irony that, some of these attitudes are built into most of the Indians who doesn't have anything else to do in their life. You can see this attitude of I'm always right and always others are wrong in most of the day to day activities. No wonder nobody follows law, they just take it to their hands and they decide how to act and feel they are doing MIGHTY RIGHT!
ReplyDeleteHopefully the educated, younger generation will learn and not adopt these traditional, inefficient, illogical attitudes and make their life and life of people around better or at least live non-intrusive life.
