Our dignity lies in the respect we accord to daily lifestyle

By Super

We are important as we have many latent qualities in us. Our personality is different than others because we have shaped it ourselves. That's why we are different than millions of other human beings around the world. We were needed just the way we are and that's why we are on this planet to play a special role. If we remember just these aforesaid lines even once a day, our lives would look far more valuable than we consider it today, especially when we are undergoing a challenging phase in life.

If we have heard or read similar things many a times, how can we allow any individual to judge our worth ever and start believing it like any soft-minded individual?

Whether it is the fragrance of soil or flower, the standstill water in a lake or the breeze on our faces or the language of birds, animals or friends everything holds a distinct meaning to us. Who cares or why should someone care at all if 'others' don't or, possibly, can't understand it. For, that's our individual self, much wider and deeper than others' can see. But how many of us remember this at all times, especially, when the chips our down? We tend to forget it all. Why?

Surprisingly, despite having an individual self we allow ourselves to be taken for granted in personal lives. Are we supposed to observe everything in the beautiful world through others' eyes? Even when we agree to most of these arguments, why do we ever underestimate our original self?

We can be kept in delusion for a short span of time but not forever. To see things in black and white, we need to stay alarmed and must question ourselves why have we been made different than other human beings? And, why do we usually fail to draw respect and importance despite being able to understand this much? Many of us do not know how, when and why to welcome or plainly ignore others' evaluation of our lifestyle. Most of the time we forget: It's our life. And, we have every right to chose things, habits and creatures by our taste or put aside.

It doesn't take rocket science to remember that we are valuable and worth doing many great things like any legend who may have been ignored like us by others at the outset. We can do wonders if we strongly believe in our intuition that helps us through common sense. A philosopher, not me, said it.

Not may of us remember that the people who are today called "Great", were those who always believed in their strengths much before others could recognize it. Such people listened to others only to know about their hidden side of personality. But they never started believing in everyone's evaluation of them.

We are a success by many standards. We are in a far better condition than others (i e physically, mentally and financially). But we don't realise it and complain for more like any kid.

Success is always possible for each one of us. We don't realise it because we await somebody to come and tell us how much capable we are in comparison to our peers. Isn't it regretful that despite not having any disability, we feel crippled in difficult situations? It is always easy to give up but it takes a real man to take on the problem and view it as opportunity to move ahead of others.
