Be fair-minded

In this life, what you assume is what you’ll see, and how you see it is how you’ll feel it, and maybe I should also say what you feel is what you act in response to.

For instance, someone was in the habit of doing something for you or with you, but suddenly stops doing it or is no longer regular, now if you choose to discount all other odds and interpret that as betrayal, wouldn't betrayal be exactly what you’ll see? CERTAINLY, and that’s because your judgement was subjectively preconceived.

As superior beings, we need to be objective in considering causes and effects. It could be that the person failed to fulfil that duty because he forgot. Maybe he was so busy but was going to make amends for it, or perhaps didn't do what was supposed to be done as a result of something you may have done or not done. Maybe the person was in a certain state or just not in the mood. People get worked up at times and can be thrown off balance, that’s only natural.


If you ask me, be fair-minded in your judgement, for things are not always the way they seem. If you overstand the fact that we all have our shortcomings, you’ll certainly make allowances for the other person’s inadequacies; and in place of pointing a finger at one another, each one will go all-out to fix whatever issue there is. This is how unassuming beings behave; they don’t absolve themselves from fault.

I’m sure some of you’ll remember my bashing of those kids who fervently trust that “you only live once” (YOLO), mostly to feed their desire ...
