Negative Emotions....

Anger, Hate, Scorn, a grudge, jealousy.....u name it. Weve all experienced atleast one or maybe all of these. Ive been introspecting lately and looking back on the stuff that ive done wrong. About friends or family whose feelings ive hurt or those whove hurt mine. Ive been thinking about how i could have made things easier for me.

Well firstly, i think its always important to care for yourself..we all worry about what the other person will think about us and we worry about hurting the other person. But what were actually doing is prolonging the uncomfortable situation for ourselves AND for the other person. So u kinda need to love and take care of urself before u can do the same for anybody else.... There is NOTHING without self-respect. No relation, however formal, professional or personal can last even for a second unless theres mutual respect.

We all think we are always right about somethings.....'SORRY' is like an impossible thing to say. Its difficult to accept ur fault, sometimes even when the person at the receiving end is your friend. But once u do that, its the most beautiful feeling.. Because its like saying u care enough to accept that you are wrong. If u can do this, trust me, u can do anything under the sun.

Whenever u get angry, or feel jealous, or hold a grudge; the only person that u harm is urself. That's because you are taking away your capacity of thinking rationally or normally...and someday ur gonna feel like a fool, coz its a pure waste of time. Thinking negatively abt somebody and something is equivalent to giving it importance. Thats how 'Your worst nightmares come true'. The amazing thing is that when u are able to completely isolate that uncomfortable situation/feeling, when it no longer bothers you, things which were irritating you or people who wouldn't care start to change.

But the truth is.....they didnt. U DID. Great people say 'Its all in your mind', whether good or bad. Its the way u think that defines how you feel and how people or things can affect you. By changing merely the way you think, you can pull yourself out of the worst imaginable situation. You can change your behaviour, and therefore your LIFE. I guess that's called writing your own destiny.

This is probably sounding like some self help recital. But its all original. :) Just something on the top of my mind, i thought i ought to share.

Hey Guri...really in introspection mood.But very true..our mind needs to be powerful and character to be strengthened and its start from the realization to accept our mistakes and being apologetic to the people whom we have hurt intentionally or mere by chance.

Keep giving insights about the things moving in ur mind.

good one..love u
