There is a feel to life. And everyone has a different feel, based on our environment, how we were brought up, what values we grew up with, what our emotional state was, whether we were taught kindness and love … who we grew up with , who our friends were growing up, how much controls we had on us by elders … I can go on and on…
The point I am trying to make here is, how
useless then is it to compare ourselves to others for whom all of the above may
have been so very different from each of us !
It really baffles me that people could get
so obsessive about someone else’s life that they forget that we can only be
better versions of ourselves , not of others. And for this to happen, the focus
is our life, not anyone else’s.
Many of us find it easier to teach the
simple things of life than actually BE simple. It seems quite a contradiction
when you think of teaching as the best form of learning.
Teach yourself to take your own advice and
let others do the same is a good mantra for peace and growth all around.
