Just felt like posting, for my mind was again in a whirl. Today I want to let out some of my thoughts on relationships. Well, one thing that came to my mind today that I felt was very true was that "Trust and respect are the foundations of all relationships". Without trust and respect for other people, there can be no further communication between two people. This is especially true in romantic relationships, where trust of your partner, whether temporary or lifetime partner, is extremely important, and its also very important to respect your partner's privacy and time alone, if he/she needs it. We often hear of "Trust" and "Respect" from our parents, and yet these qualities are seriously diminishing nowadays. Kids dont respect elders anymore. People on the streets hardly trust one another. It makes the whole "We are one country, one people" thing seem ironic and moronic. Next, wanted to let my thoughts out on worldly matters as well (again). Indeed, the world is not perfect, but if we could stop hating one another and start loving each other more, the world would definitely be a better place. If we stop complaining and start praising and appreciating instead, the world would definitely be a better place. If we stop lusting after the material and instead strive for the eternal in Heaven, the world would definitely be a better place. Think of me what you wish, I am but a simple idealist. Deep inside all of us humans, we have a barbaric nature, a beastial rage that is kept under check by civilization. This means that if there were no law and no ethics, and no education, people would simply kill each other without a reason to, and we would be no different from wild beasts. However, apart from that barbaric nature, that honed instinct to kill and rend flesh, we also have a pleasant nature which allows us to understand each other, to understand other animals. We have in us the capacity to destroy, but also the capacity to create, to love and to understand. Why then, do humans waste away that capacity to love, to create and to understand and allow themselves to be consumed by their barbaric nature? Why do people think that by committing acts of terrorism, others will submit to their cause? Terrorism and extremism are barbaric acts that dont reflect well on the civilized humans that we are. Blowing up people indiscriminately and mass-murdering the innocent, you call yourselves humans? I believe that no matter what religion we may follow, the practices, laws and morals are all the same. They all exist for the same reason: Ultimately, to guide us to become upright and honorable humans and to guide us to the eternal paradise (For believers) and to become better people in general (For non-believers). Thus, there is no such thing as "My religion is better than yours" or "I'm born European, so I'm superior to you, who is Asian". That kind of thinking is extremely naive, childish and foolish. There is no race which is better than another. Our bodies, no matter our skin colour or race, are all constructed the same way. Just because someone is Asian, doesnt mean that he will have one less liver than an American. Just because someone is African, doesnt mean that his brain will not function as well as a European. Its because there are people in this world who think that they are so superior to others in every way that conflict exists in this world which we live in. It is truly a sad and lamentable thing. |
