So lately, I've been able to soak up life lessons very easily. Normally I just throw it out the window as soon as it's over but lately, it's been sticking unto my back like a lifeless slug. Well there's a good and bad side to it like many other things in this world. This lifeless slug, is my recently revived conscience, otherwise known as the whispering angel and devil on your shoulders. Okay, it's not like I've not been using my conscience, it's just that I've not been paying much attention to the angel.
Take for example, I was listening to a lesson-in-a-cd thing in my friend's car one day. Although I can only faintly remember the whole lesson, I
do remember something very clearly. It's only a phrase but a good phrase indeed and it was "appreciate people's differences." If I remember correctly, the speaker was saying that he use to had very little patience with people who didn't share the same ideals or thoughts as he did. It was hard for him to meet new people
and to get along with people. He had an abundant number of problems with people and constantly blamed
them for the problems. But after reading a book, he slowly learned to be patient and to embrace the differences of people which made life much more peaceful for him.
Because the person who has problems with everyone is the problem himself. That phrase, too, struck me very hard.
Hence, that lesson have been in my head till this day. To talk the talk is easy, but to walk the walk, wow. I've tried to apply it to my life and I've also tried not to judge people but it's very very hard. It annoys me very much that now, whenever I
break any of those principles my conscience haunts me even to my dreams, like seriously. Though, It's a pretty great feeling when I've restricted myself from judging others but appreciating their dissimilarities instead.
I'm sorry if post is cliche. (:
Much love, AngelKein.
