Just this morning, an experience forced me to reflect on things that really affect us as humans. These thoughts forced me to write this blog post, which should be considerably short. I don’t want to talk much but I just want to convey a message in the most simple way that I can.
The Situation
In my neighborhood, there’s a lady that has been on everyone’s nerves. She always picks up a fight with everyone around her. She whines, complains over little things.
Everyone in the neighborhood is a threat to her life and her family because that's how she sees it. As a matter of fact, I hardly see her smile at all and even if she does; it doesn't last.
She’s incredibly angry at people for the slightest of reason. She’s naggy, insultive and, to an extent, nice..This should be the only compliment I can give her.
She’s nice if you are close to her, but the issue is that her kindness is being overshadowed by her annoying attitude.
I know exactly how people feel about her in the neighborhood, and that is; PISSED.
People are “pissed” and they keep asking, “What the hell is wrong with this lady?”
I can’t wrap my hands around why she’s mad all the time. Why, she complains and whines all the time.
Why she thinks everyone is the reason she has problems, even though everybody in life has problems too.
And why she has allowed her bad side to overshadow her good side.
So what about you?
- Do people feel irritated around you all the time?
- Do people you see others as a threat to your affairs all the time?
- Do you feel that you are the only person that is good and the rest is bad?
- Do you feel angry, mad and sad all the time?
- Do you feel you have been cheated by nature all the time?![]
If the answer to all the questions above is affirmative, then it means that you have allowed your bad side to overshadow your good side.
Whenever people think about you, your annoying character comes to their mind. This, my friend, is dangerous.
Everyone has a bad side, but powerful men always work on themselves to let their light shine so bright that it illuminates others.
What comes to people’s mind when they see you? Good or bad?
Thanks for your time. Always remember that you have greatness within you.
