Its been just so long since I last wrote that I feel like writing for the sake of writing. There is absolutely so much I want to talk about that I don't know where to begin. Ok lets start here, today I met a friend and as we ate lunch together surprisingly we spoke about spirituality. He seemed nice and kept a straight face at all the spiritual gibberish I spoke about, which I was not expecting! Anyway I was asked if I ever get angry, which not many ask me and come to think of it, I cant even remember the last time I got angry! Not even at my flatmate who yells on the phone at 5 in the morning, puts her clothes in for a wash at 11 at night and always complains and shouts about everything. She amuses me! I love crazy people, being around them can determine who you really are, just by the judgements of your own reactions.
As all my theories are based on observation and analysis, I really want to reason out and maybe think aloud what my thought process really is. Why don't people piss me off? Why do I end up empathising with them to reason out why they behave the way they did and give them the benefit of doubt?
Maybe I empathise because sometimes I feel I've been there (even when I haven't) but I have made mistakes in the past and mistakes are the most amazing things in this world. They teach you like no other.
Sometimes I think Its about finding the best in people, no matter how horrible they seem everyone has their positives, and everyone deserves to be known by their positives.
Or maybe, its just because i don't have any expectations of them? so whatever they do it doesn't change any of my pre judged ideas, because i dont have any. I've noticed change angers people. That merely happens because we are attached to the previous situation. If only we learn to let go of the previous and welcome and accept change we can be at peace with ourselves.
If the situation involves ignorance, I find myself saying to my self 'Oh my God, Bless them! I hope they can forgive themselves for their own behaviour when they do become aware of the act.'
Sometimes I think its Karma - If they do wrong, wrong will happen with them, so why bother getting angry anyway. Poetic Justice is a beautiful thing. You may call me a sadist but I love it when I see nature's justice happening on its own. Why should I get my hands dirty in getting angry and teaching them a lesson? I think the universe or God or the one above us or whatever else you may call it, is much smarter than us. Trying to teach someone a lesson is a responsibility. I always talk about helping others and how one should give a part of themselves to others for their benefit. But in this situation, it may imply I'm confronting them, asking them to deal with something which is outside their comfort zone? Wouldn't that hurt them even more? Why should I be responsible for that? People eventually learn from their own experiences. So let them be.
But its not only people that make us angry. Its usually situations that make them do what they do and everyone deserves a chance to be forgiven. How do you forgive a situation? Now thats a really really long topic on its own. It would definitely bore you out! The gist of it according to me would be to accept the anger creating situation. Most things are beyond your control for a reason and the reason will be clear when the time is right. So dont push it. Keep calm and carry on, a quote created during World War II, still apt in the world of today.
Should we really waste our time getting angry when you can have it all with peace, love and happiness?
Like in dance or any other physical activity breath is the backbone not for survival but for its development, to be able to do more and to take the movement to an even better physical state. In life, peace is responsible not for survival but for the development of the soul. There is no place for anger.
