Story of our lives / T&O: Understanding

I don't know why, but I felt the urge to post something.
My brain can be a wondrous tiny place, it processes the most random things out.

Let my serious//random side show then.

This will become some small blabber by Sta yo. But um...finally...another T&O topic! x'D

In some or most of my previous posts, I do realized this fact about me: emphasizing readers to have a great amount of understanding for other fellow human beings. But then again, despite all "saintly" advice I gave from most of my blog post entries... many a time, I know it is not easy to follow nor empathize with others . No one is perfect, remember? I don't make an exception either. But that does not mean I shall give up trying. I believe in taking one step by one step to fulfill certain goals.

Yes,  I might not get to experience what other people go/gone through, therefore whatever strong feelings they foster from within, I will not completely feel the way they do. To be frank, not even the so-called "psychic" people around me, will get to know what one truly feels every-single-time. Instincts, theories, assumptions and interpretations are the things that keep conclusions going.

From here onward, I would love to elaborate more on what "understanding" is for me.

Humans are more than colors, more than plant types, more than animals (even some of them show emotions)... the list goes on. Truly, it is a privilege to be raised as a human, because humanity is the most intelligent one out of thousands of other living things.

But --people tend to overlook that point and many other good things by bringing people around them down, how wasted! I mean c'mon... that's not a smart move. (ME INCLUDED)

For instance, I see people judging one another too easily without basic understanding, always involving the "I...I...I" factor in various ways; the egoistic nature. I read books relating to EGO and they all begin inside the mind.

After all, the mind is the major root to all thought processes. I see why meditation is very practical for some. They know when to.."rest" their minds. Hear their thoughts without giving feedback. Free from negativity, just wanting that peaceful, undisturbed moment. Then wishing everyone with good prayers after settling down. When times get rough, I see the need to take away thoughts that revolves only around me, and spare some other ones for "no-me-being-a-bitch" things like enjoying nature, watching documentaries that involve others' lives or simply keeping silent. Why don't I listen more? I remind myself this sentence frequently, over and over again.

Hence, instead of having songs or titles like "story of MY life", I replaced it with "story of OUR LIVES". Its not just ourselves, but Everyone plays a part in making a story called Earth. No exceptions. Everyone ought to understand people around them. 

I guess as being humans... we tend to get placed into vulnerable moments. After our downfall, we eventually blame things around us. Personally, I like blaming some of my love-ones, I like blaming the weather... I like blaming my fate, my whatever you can think of... including myself. Crazy, isn't it?

But those things only got processed out from the brain. 

When I think deeper and straighter, the chances of things I mentioned that were at fault, are completely illusions. They weren't at fault, silly. Its just how things happen for a reason. It is my destiny to face certain things, and it is your destiny to face yours.  I can choose to ride along with life aka a sweet struggle and adventure, or sit there and cry over spilled milk, dragging others into my unhappiness. But one thing's for sure: the latter one will bring me to no good ending.

LESSON #59.

If I learned something new this year, it would be the fact that the world do not just go around with my way of thinking. Others have feelings too. It is easy to say, but hard to act out as if I really understand and attend to someone else's needs and point of view. Lets say for example.. when a parent is disciplining or scolding his/her daughter out of worry, the son stands on a whole new level to protect his sister from getting hurt or sad. He ended up "talking back" to the parent. As a result? The parent and son clashes. Maybe they'll quarrel, maybe they'll sort things out.

As I'm writing this down, again...it is my way of expressing things from within. See the relationship? Not everyone will agree with what I wrote.

I don't think I am the only one reflecting on these things right? I believe in my lovely, positive, life beauty community, be it on Google+..Youtube etc.

Here's a piece of Cal's thought processes for you!

Have a wonderful life y'all. See you with another post soon.
That being said, I know you know what is coming up!
