CHANGE!!
Someone said this," It's hard to change people.. However, it is not hard to change yourself.. To change the way you see people."
How true.. Most of time, we treat somebody the way we have prejudged them to be. However, who are we to judge in the 1st place? Assumed that particular person doesnt like us or wadever and end up not feeling happy. Assumed that the particular person is haughty n thus not willing to draw abit nearer to start a new friendship.
I have this friend who always will call me up to "complain" tt nobody seems to like her.. everybody is going against her and tt she's not happy in this and that, in who n who.. cos she thinks tt person is this n tt.. wadever..
So my advise for her after hearing this from somebody.. STOP! U need to Change.. WE all need to change.. TO Change the way we see people. When we view ppl as friendly, harmless, nice, we will definately react differently.
At the same time, I heard this short story from 933.
There was this lady who went to this grocer selling vegetables in a wet market. She picked a few tomatoes which cost $3 and was about to pay when she realised she only had a $100 note.
The grocer offered the lady to bring the tomatoes back and to return her the $3 during her next visit. However, only after the grocer returned from his holiday trip 3 days later.
Indeed, 3 days later, the lady went back to the same stall, wanting to pick up some cucumbers and also to return the $3. The moment the Grocer saw her, he asked if he can help her.. (without mention of the money she owed)
Lady picked up the cucumbers and returned $7 in total for the $4 cucumbers and the $3 tomatoes she owed that time.
The grocer smiled and said,"Wow.. U're trustworthy!"
The lady left the smelly wet market tt day feeling happy and lighthearted. She was thinking..
(WTH.. $7 for everything? SO EX!! Wahahas.. Kidding abit anti-climax here)
SOrry, cant help it. Yah, back to the story, She felt happy as she ran thru wat the grocer said in her head.. (YOu're trustworthy) She was actually thinking He was the one WHO FIRST TRUSTED her and she merely reacted by returning that trust.
SO, start your day right.. By Changing yourself.. The way you see people. SMILEZ!!
