In today’s self-centered world,
everyone is so much involved in the itself that given a choice between “Thank
you” and “You are welcomed” many of us would choose “Thank you” instead of “You
are welcomed” means nobody is bothered to help today, everyone is so involved
in themselves that they always want someone to help them, be it friend, a stranger
or their luck. But they won’t miss a
chance to give an advice who need help. “I think you should work for an IT
company, they pay handsomely” , says the guy who works as a clerk in a bank, to
a person who is there for car loan and about to buy a brand new Mercedes.
People sometimes forget who they are what they know about any particular thing
is right or wrong? But what they will do is, give an advice. And one
of the common thing observed is, jealousy because of somebody’s success. If a
person is making good money for himself, this thing makes their face sour.
Today I went to my friend at his
shop, just to say “Hi”, it was long time since we met, and I happen to be in
his area so decided to pay him a visit, there I met one guy, probably in his
late 30s. well dressed, good looking, came to his shop to buy certain things. List
was long so he happened to spend little more time at the shop. The guy in the
shop was taking out things from the shelves as per the list, while we were both
busy in talking about one of our mutually known person. As we were discussing
about him, and his habits, that person was listening us, the moment we stopped,
he jumped in, “Do you know how much money he makes, he was just an ordinary
person like you and me, we were in same class, we even used to sit together on
same bench, we used to do lot fun, he was very rebellious back in school days,
used to use lot of bad words for his other school mates. Now look at him, doing
same thing with is subordinate sucking their blood, and enjoying profit on his
own.”
Everybody has heard such stories at
least once in their life. Where a lay man feels like he is been cheated by his
luck, looking at the other guy who is very successful in his life. So this lay
man starts to make stories out of it, just to soothe his heart and mind and
create a protective layer of excuses about why this happen to him and not to
me. After spilling all of his comforting, and jealous coated excuses, he got
calm down, his good were now ready on the counter, he placed them in his bag
and took an exit with saying bye to us as if we were his school mates and a big
smile on his face.
We both looked at him, said bye.
As he went my friend told me to ignore the frustrated poor soul. After almost
half an hour I also took an exit from there but this person kept me thinking
about the psychology of human being. It is same as that of, ‘if your friend
gets fail in an exam you feel bad for him and try to sympathize him, but if the
same friend scores distinction and you with just passing marks then you feel miserable.’
The same psychology is applied in real life also.
If somebody is so successful today,
there must be good qualities in him otherwise he won’t be that much successful today.
So instead to criticizing him try to analyze him, who knows you may find some
good hidden qualities out of him, which will help you to make your life
successful.
That’s why it is said behind
every good thing there is hidden truth. Only few will know it.
