crazy.

At The Cross - Hillsongs

Sometimes, somethings, even though it is against the norm of a society, it is not necessarily wrong. For instance, when we talk about crazy people. What makes you describe that certain person who behaves differently crazy? Just because he talks to himself, constantly mumbles, smiles at his own jokes, talks to the wall, talks to non-living objects, that alone makes him crazy? Don't you think it is a little too judgemental and stereotypical? Of course, it is not entirely wrong to describe him as peculiar or odd. But, many chose the word 'crazy'. 'Crazy' is such a strong word. So, do be extra careful when using this word as it can be very hurtful to the other party.

Won't you try to understand why he does that despite knowing what others may think of him?

Won't you try to think from his perspective and try to understand him instead of labeling him under the much undesirable group?

Obviously, we are living in the 21st century already. Everything around us is so fast-paced it is already a trouble keeping up with. So, who will actually take the time out to bother so much about something no one gives a shit about? Truth is, everyone will have their time. It is just a matter of time and situation.

Just imagine, if one day, you have this much of unsolved problems and tangled feelings that you need someone to talk to, even though that someone can't be much of a help. But, there's no one around you who is willing to spend their precious time to listen about your petty problems because they are simply too busy with their own business. What will you do? Just simply keep them all in even though you know you can't contain no more? At this point of time, people will deduce that you are going crazy. Know why? Because you start talking to non-living objects yourself and smile with relief after you have done so. Or you could even cry in the process of ranting to the wall or something. What outsiders may think of you? That's right. They think you have gone crazy. They may even go around spreading the news about how they saw you talking to the wall as if it responses to you and crying in the process and laugh about it as a joke!

Hold on a second. Rewind that tape. Rewind that whole scenario.

Didn't you once do that to another person who did the exact same thing as what you are doing right now? Now, think about it. Are you even right in the first place?

If you are still with me, congratulations. You have realized that you are once a stereotypical hypocrite and i hope that you will change that negative thing about you. At least, try. And, once you realize this, who knows, you might find a new philosophy of life? Or feel like you are a step closer to being a better person?

Life is not only about you. It is also about the people around you, the people you interact with. Being individualistic ain't always a good thing.

Always keep an open mind and a compassionate heart. - Phil Jackson

A good head and a good heart are always a formidable combination. - Nelson Mandela

Have a good day ya'll...
