Do you see what I see?

Do you see what I see?

Definitely not!

Even if we all look at the SAME thing, at the SAME moment, we cannot see the SAME thing.

If we remove the scientific angle from the explanation and only try to understand the philosophical or experiential angle, we would know that it is impossible for two people to look at things in the precisely the same way.

How we experience things, places and people around us depends on our past experiences, our mental status and a lot other internal things.

Though we can try to relate with others around us in a similar settings, we never know what they must be feeling exactly, sometimes they themselves don't know.

Having difference of opinion is completely normal, very rarely it will be the case that two individuals can completely agree on something, and we should understand and respect that without any ego or negative perception.

We all have a different life philosophy, different goals, different learnings, We all cross paths with each other for a short while and it would be very naive of us to expect that someone will reciprocate our actions and intentions. 

They can only be empathetic and make you comfortable by agreeing to disagree, but they can't do anything more than that.

The life that you have lived, no one else had.
The words that you have spoken, no one else had.
The journey that you can envision, no one else can.

Don't let the difference of opinions make you feel that you are worth any less.

The nature is beautiful because there is difference and variety in everything around us, Imagine every flowers, fruit, weather being the same throughout, wouldn't it be a depressing scenario to live on.

Difference is what makes this world beautiful, and we should all be proud that we all are so different and yet capable of making things happen altogether.

Lets us learn to enjoy the fact that it is us who can understand ourselves the best, expecting others to understand our emotions and feelings will only lead to sadness.

Love others, but also don't stop loving yourself.

 

Live, Laugh, Love💓

Don't try too hard to fit in, let things fall in place with time!

Trying too hard to fit-in in any group, community, society or network can often lead to a feeling of being left alone. It can also be pointed as one of the reasons behind people feeling lonely or unacceptable at times. But, think it this way, Resistance is a very natural phenomenon, everything in nature resists change at every level. Change can only be brought upon with gradual and positive efforts, that's is the only way, or else it will feel like an act of suppression or intrusion. When we try too hard to fit in, we make ourselves vulnerable to others opinions, we do things which don't actually align well with our core nature, we try too hard for others to like us that at times we even start compromising our self esteem and self-belief for it. This act of getting validation from others and seeking a sense of belonging is what makes us feel lonely and sad when the expected feelings are not reciprocated from the other end. A few things which I can think of, which might help you...

I am not who you think I am; I am not who I think I am; I am who I think you think I am

"I am not who you think I am; I am not who I think I am; 𝐈 𝐚𝐦 𝐰𝐡𝐨 𝐈 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐤 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐤 𝐈 𝐚𝐦" Yes! read it again, and let it sink in for a while. This quote by Thomas Cooley says a lot about how we perceive and judge our own selves. How we indulge in the act of being liked, praised and recognized by others and how we lose our own identities to become someone who after a point doesn't resemble the real us. We all start out with a dream, a dream that makes our eyes shine, which makes us all welcome the rising sun, But as we grow up, we let go of those dreams and start doing things that would make our parents, relatives, neighbors or even strangers proud. We shed the wings of our desires only to rest in the safe nests, we get so trapped within our own minds, that we neglect to see the real world. We give up our dreams of a lifetime, just so that some people will one day pat our back. But is it really worth it? Is it really worth to live for an identity...
