Its not what others like you that matters but what others think of you

Its 3.12 am 18/8/2010, I cant sleep and eyes are wide open as if its mid-day. Sometimes it happens in your life too. I'm just wondering what to write. Everybody think they are the greatest in the world. Even everyone of you who r reading this blog. Whatever you do u think, you r doing the right thing and others are wrong. But life is more than that. Its not about right or wrong. Its a process of understanding things around us and learning how to deal with it. Whats right for us may be wrong for others but more importantly what matters the innocent feeling in our heart and mind that we are doing the right thing.

Some may say like sillytoe.. we need to be kind and say nice things. I cant be a hypocrite saying nice things, when in reality i dont feel so. May be others can be actors saying all the good things and be nice to everybody, so that everybody likes u. For me its not important that ppl likes you or not but they are able to read your mind.

I can read most of my officers minds and can tell what kind a person they are. When they talk to me, i know how sincere they are. Some even seems to be so pious but inside its another thing all together.

i'm honoured to be mentioned (or rather, quoted?) in your writings. i feel famous :) haha.

true, you shouldn't be a hypocrite. you should always be true to yourself (at the very least) but that doesn't necessarily be of convenient for you to be able to just say whatever that you feel like saying, without thinking the consequences. what's the point of apologising, but the same mistakes are repeated again and again? and how does that reflect you as a person to others?

i can imagine you telling me this right to my face, "i don't care what people think of me." and with that statement, you just contradict yourself to this particular entry - in which, we always think we are right, that we could never allow ourselves be criticised by other people.

my point is again, if you don't have anything nice to say, sir, you should just keep quiet.

"Wise men talk because they have something to say; fools, because they have to say something."

have a pleasant day :)

You cannot make conclusion about things so fast. Seeing things alone doesnt give the right to make interpretations.
