Fix it!

I know I've said a few times that it's important that one carries himself/herself with pride. But it seems to me that I have to clarify my statement, because I have been told that people might misunderstand it.

Hello all, I'm the Earthian.

In life, often, you are made to meet with people that you are barely interested in. You always have an idea of the person whom you want to meet with. When the person you're made to meet with, doesn't satisfy your own "demands" you start to build a half hearted relationship with them.
You avoid talking to them about their good qualities and you almost never fail to point out their weaknesses and mistakes. It's almost like you've been waiting for them to commit a mistake so that you can pounce in and... well, point it out to others.

Now, how is all of this connected with pride?

Well, like you might know, you often only realize the value of what you have when you lose them. And here too, when you get the first opportunity to get rid of that person whom you pretended to like, you do it. You do it because you've found a replacement who is just the picture perfect person that you've dreamt about. But only when you try and start developing your relationship with this new person, you realize that you're being the victim of the same illness you treated a person with. You realize your mistake and start repenting.

Well, this is where pride comes into play. Lose all of it, and try and get back what you didn't mean to lose. You're most likely to not get it back, but it's always worth a shot. Try with all your might, especially when you know there might still be a spark.

In life, we don't always get to decide whom we hurt. We don't get the opportunity to heal their pain either. So when you do get an opportunity or when you think you have an opportunity, it's important that you don't stand in your own way.

Lots of love, peace.
