Yes! being good is tiring and frustrating, but it's the only way of being good.

At times being good to people can be really tiring and frustrating, even more, when people don't understand you or your emotions and keep on judging and furling negativity towards you in return.

It is the real test that one has to pass, because when people are good to you, you will be good to them, but if you are good to others even when they are being totally absurd and negative in their behavior, one day it will make them change their perspective and see the goodness in you, just wait for that moment, because sooner or later it will arrive.

As we had discussed before as well, that negativity doesn't need will power or force to exist in our lives, it is our natural tendency to get attracted towards negative thoughts and actions because of our mind's self defense mechanism which has evolved from being hunter gathers to living in a social environment.

our mind's tendency is to clench to a negative thought and build a story around it, it helps the brain keep this body safe which happens to be its residing place. Mind is very selfish in its nature, it wouldn't let you be free unless you train it to let you be free over the period of time.

Due to the very same reason, being good in general is hard.

It is really hard to be good to people day in and day out, when you know they are not being good to you.

Its is really hard to stick to your principles, when everything feels unfavorable.

It is really really hard to be a good human, when there are a few examples to follow.

It is really hard, frustrating and tiring to keep being good.

But again,

Life is hard, and you can't have it any other way. 

Just hang on for a while, The things will change.
Your goodness will be answered, and your value will be recognized.

till then,

Live Laugh Love💓

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 ...

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...
