hmm u know something? though i may not be the happiest person on Earth right now but am thankful for the bunch of friends I have who can not only tolerate my mood swings(by teasing me about it but being patient with me nonetheless) and hot-temper, but also make me laugh like I've not laughed for a loooooong time.Is it just what i feel or are so many people really realising that they are just being used and their efforts are not at all appreciated? So many people work behind-the-scenes till their face is literally shining with sweat and yet their work isn't recognised. Or rather they are not recognised for the hard work that they've put in. Whenever some major event's taking place, people only notice those who usher the guests etc etc. Nobody even bothers to think about those who put in their everything into making those posters, banners etc. Those who went an extra mile to ensure that everything was done up to perfection and that expectations were exceeded, when they could have jolly well decided to let somebody else shoulder that responsibility.
It takes a lot of courage to do that, doesn't it? Guess thats why I get sooo pissed off when I feel that I've truly done something extra and don't get the deserved appreciation/response/whatever. But shouldn't we feel that way for ourselves sometimes? I mean if you allow everybody to just dump all the hard work at you and just bask in the glory, isn't that allowing yourself to be stomped over ?
Yeah its a nice nice world. We must all put others before self. Like they say in hindi "neki kar dariya mein dal" meaning do a kind deed and forget about it; don't expect anything out of it. Yeah it makes sense at times but you surely musn't abide by it always. If you can't care for yourself, seriously I don't see how anybody else truly can?
Guess the one thing we all must never fail to do is learn to respect yourself. That way respect for others(PS those who truly deserve it and *Not every tom,dick and harry that u meet!) will naturally follow.
Ooooo am giving tips eh? Hehe but I do think that made sense :)
