I always wondered why do majority of the people have same views about a particular thing. Why there is more of despair than hope? Why there is more of hatred than love? Why there is more of deceit than loyalty? Why there is more of doubt than trust? Why people choose to be silent than to be heard? Why more of pessimism than optimism?
I think I have figured out the reason of this "why"!
Being hopeless used to be a negative sign for me. but now, it is a sign of being practicality. Exposing hatred used to be sign of immaturity for me, but now it is a sign of being real. Expecting good was a sign of optimism for me, but now being cautious is a sign of intelligence. Being silent used to be a sign of denying ones own self, but now it is a sign of understanding! And, most importantly, all my definitions of optimism are proving me false against every common man!
Yes, it is because now I am one step ahead from the stage of "imagining and expecting", and that is the stage of "experiencing". Thoughts and beliefs do play an important role in building up a man! But they are nothing if practical experience is absent!
Books taught me how to "think positive", and I could not understand that they could never teach me how to "practice" that thinking in real world! There was a gap between my interpretation and actions! Now this gap seems to be filling!
Being silent seems to be a sign of peace now, because peace is better than a war. The things which cant be explained by words, find their way by silence. And also truth never remains hidden, and the goodness never dies, so you need not to blow the trumpet of your helplessness! God knows everything, and He fixes everything!
