Throwing net, fisherman in Indonesia, nelayan menyebar jala by Rarindra Prakarsa http://gallery.photo.net/photo/9741723-lg.jpg
People say you can not catch happiness, you can't buy it either; happiness trips on in alone, on its own, when you aren’t stressing over it and perhaps when you least expect it. I have been looking for happiness for a long time now. I seek it in being recognised and appreciated. I do not consider myself someone who punishes themself after criticism, or believes in that hurtful misconception that because someone thinks you’re bad once, you are branded bad forever. I work hard if I know my work means something to someone and is helping someone achieve some goal, even if I’m not directly involved in the profit. And I am not perfect.
People can be mean and rude, even inhuman when it comes to the treatment of others. Do people fancy being treated with disrespect and humiliation? Of course not—and just so, they don’t have the right to behave that way with others. The choice—to unleash or contain anger—is in our hands and it is up to us to make sure that we don’t hurt anyone, known or unknown to us.
Not everyone you meet will be nice. You know this. The surprise is when you meet the rude folk, and they don’t respond to a taste of their own medicine. Try, instead, killing with kindness. Or, perhaps, it is saving with kindness. Reconsidering with kindness. They just might reconsider, and realize their behavioral flaw. Unbelievable? Give it a shot. Throw out a net of kindness, and see what you will reel in. At least you may create a ripple effect that will not soon be forgotten.
