As unimportant as most of the opinions of others could be, sometimes it hurts. No matter how strong- hearted one might be, sometimes those mean, negative and destructive words, insults or criticism hurt a lot.
The people of the world are becoming more insensitive everyday. Some people think the universe has given them the right to say hurtful words to other. Some hide behind the cloak of being blunt, some as being advisers or counsellors; others as being fearless or being straight to the point, and most under the pretense of not being afraid to voice their opinions.
Well, I do not know who told them that they are that important in the first place. Who gave you this authority? Who crowned thee Vocal Prince of the universe? Who made you Judge and Jury over the lives of others? I do not know why you do it, but it hurts sometimes.
It does not hurt because you think it is true, many at times it hurts because someone as unimportant as you is the one talking. Someone insignificant in one's life is the unfair and destructive assessor of our actions and inactions. It makes the victims believe the universe is unfair for giving such a cruel individual a voice.
If you want to advise, correct or even chastise a person, it should be done constructively. It should be done in a way that the person does not feels attacked, violated, insulted, belittled or even saddened.
Although these opinions hurt a lot, it is not your problem. Please know that it is JUST an opinion. Many of them say these hurtful words because they do not really know you, others are trying to get a reaction or confirmation about something they heard about you. Some are just bitter people with no atom of joy in their lives, so they want to kill the little joy in yours. Others are not used to seeing people happy with themselves, and decide to look for different reasons why self-happiness or self-fulfillment is a problem.
The worst and most pitiful group of these class of people are the frustrated ones with family, marital or self-esteem issues; these final group are looking for where to transfer their aggression, and if you look or seem happy, then you are a perfect target. Just try to ignore them because your reaction is their joy. Please stay away from them or learn to be allergic to their negative energy. It is very important for your mental health, to stay away from any and every form of negative energy. Self preservation is key.
The world is getting scarier and more hopeless every second, please do not use your voice to steal the little piece of joy in the lives of others. Please think, construct, deconstruct, revise, analyze and scrutinize each word before it is spoken.
Suicide is becoming rampant, please stop being an angel of doom; but instead either look for how to bring a sense of hope and joy into the lives of others, and if you can not do this, then be quiet because silence is indeed golden and you look better with your mouth closed.
As we approach the Christmas and New Year celebrations, let us be careful and choose our words wisely. Wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year in advance.
