Hey Human,
Here I am again writing something which I thought might tickle your brain a bit.
We all have favorites right? favourite animal, favourite person, favourite thing, favourite emotion, etc etc etc., I think this happens automatically. We tend to like something/someone a tad more than other people or other things. And also we want to become everyone's favorite. common who doesn't want to be liked by others, we all do! I do! you do! and it's not new or bad. As a child we want to become our parents pet and relatives favorite , then when we grow up a bit we want our teachers to like us, then become popular among friends, after landing up a job try becoming boss's favorite etc etc. Ultimately, we constantly keep trying. This is the case of majority of people. And in that majority I too have a share.
I always wanted to be everyone's favorite. I became "THE FAVORITE" or I thought I did. I am still figuring that one out. In my life, this has been the reason for my sadness many a times. When I became their favorite I have only tried to please them when I literally did not want to do few things. When people did not like me, I have tried to bribe them with gifts, trust me that has worked but it was not permanent. It lasted only till the excitement of the given gift lasted. I tried talking to them nicely when they weren't even interested in talking to me. It was the constant urge inside making me do all these things. The goal was constant "I WANT THEM TO LIKE ME".
Finally I learned my lesson the hard way. Yes! the 'R' word "REJECTION", after all I had to face it. I cannot be liked by everybody forget becoming their favorite. Few people don't like few people. PERIOD. We have to understand that and of course respect that. They all have their own reasons. But don't hate people too much which will turn toxic for you, not for them. You will become this negative, horrible, toxic person and from there you will have no turning back.
Even we don't like everyone right? so think that you are on the other side when other people don't like you.
"NO EXPECTATION = NO SADNESS. AGREE REJECTION AND LEARN ACCEPTANCE"
It's quite simple actually. The above formula is not only for this topic, in general that is what we have to follow. For example few people read this piece few won't and I cannot make anybody do anything right? Few might like this few won't. Again I don't have any role there either. So leave it. Just 'LEAVE IT'.....
"FEELINGS ARE CREATED NOT BAKED"
As always I talk(write) and talk(write) and talk(write) but you are the one who is reading this, understanding this and deciding what to do after reading this. Who am I to tell, I'm just a mere common commoner.
Yours truly,
TCC
