life is good
to be genuinely liked by people…that is one of the greatest blessings in life. Specially for somebody like me who has battled with diagreements all my life.
I had my issues back then and I guess I wasn’t really a people person. Definitely not the popular type. Got into all sorts of squabbles from pre-school days until last year.
but things happen to us that suddenly makes us want to forget all the bad things and try to live a life that is righteous, not pretentious. Did away with all the anger and prejudices and pretty much everything that i have been used to for so long.
It’s very liberating actually to live this way. To not be always up in arms everytime somebody doesn’t agree with my views. To not be judgmental, to be a little more patient. To genuinely like people, and listen to their stories, and to empathize with them. To be a good person generally, without really expecting anything in return.
It really is worth it.
Wars and disagreements can be won by diplomacy and kindness. And righteousness, not the pretentious kind, but the moral kind, as a way of life brings more happiness and fulfillment more than one can ever imagine.
It is exactly because of this that I am truly, truly happy now.
