Met a lady, she was very aggressive in nature. Everyone was scared of her at home. No one wanted to cross her paths with her. She would criticise anyone, shout at anyone and misbehave anyone. She could blame anyone. No one liked her which further annoyed her. Her aggression was increasing everyday. She blamed everyone for her emotions and situations. Everyone was scared of her aggression, even her parents. She always said, what have others done for me that I have to thank them for. And believe me, no one would that way. Those special occasions always come very rarely when you feel someone has really done something for you. But on the other hand, family is one thing, which is always doing one or other thing everyday. Still the next question was, what are you doing for yourself that you should be grateful for. If you cannot be grateful to others, atleast be yourself. At least it should start coming into your attitude. No one will make your day. You will have to make your own day. This thing got stuck with her and she started searching for answers. What would make her smile and like herself more. What would make her a better person, so that she could be grateful for her life. When you ask the question, your answer appears. One day, her mother was really struggling with the work as lots of guests were expected. She thought and then decided to help her as she thought if she would keep sitting and her mother would keep struggling, she would not like herself. But as she has to thank herself, so she has to do something. She went and helped her mother which surprised her mother too and ended up talking and building a bond with her mother. She liked herself more for both the things and then thanked herself for doing so. She realized, she was blaming others but because she was not making a positive contribution to her life and other’s lives, she was feeling aggressive and she was blaming others for her lack of actions. She started supporting her family and thanking herself. Then she started supporting others and thanking herself. In the due course she also started receiving lots of thanks and love which really brought out the most beautiful of her. Now, everyone loved her, wanted to talk to her and be with her. She wondered if it was her or others.
It’s always about what we are thinking, what we are doing. It is not about others. Your life is your responsibility. make a positive use of it. It’s one life you got. Do something good now.
