How great thou are???

Greatest tragedies in human relationships are the inability and unwillingness to tolerate and accommodate views that are different.

We find comfort in those who agree with us, but personal growth occurs in situations where there are differences in views.

It is best to express our views regarding any matter, without the usage of harsh words written in anger to hurt other people's feelings.


Sometimes opinions others have of our views and actions may not be what we would like to hear. But if we listen to them, we often find some truth in their opinions. If we are prepared to change our ways and approaches there is always a chance for self improvement.

No one can hope to change the world by preaching a message of love while criticizing, blaming and publicly humiliating fellow humans. On the other hand if we can not deliver a Godly message in a gentle manner with respect to every living being, then we may sound like we are preaching some failed religion with a false prophet.

And it is not fair to lose temper when our faults are pointed out. Though we might think we can intimidate others by using foul language, to overlook our shortcomings, it exposes our weakness of inability to handle criticism. Foul language and anger are weak man's imitation of strength.


Having said that, we cannot remove all the stones and thorns so that the pathway be smooth. To feel comfortable, it is better to wear a pair of shoes instead. likewise, we should learn to guard our senses to have our peace of mind since we cannot succeed in removing all the disturbing objects from the world.

The mark of great people lie in how they face daily irritations with equanimity.

Wish You a Blessed Weekend!!!
