People who shape our lives

When you first meet a person you start perceiving things about him. These perceptions with time prove either right or wrong.

Most of the times what we think about the person before knowing him turns out totally opposite when we get to know him personally. A person who looks cold hearted, rude and hot headed turns out to be someone as soft as a cotton. Sometimes people whom we hate in the beginning become our favorite and most loved. Our parents, who scold us, criticize us when we do wrong don't do it because they want to hurt us, they do it because they want us to learn. If nobody cared we would never know where we went wrong and where are we supposed to work on ourselves.

Similarly, Teachers are our second parents, they love us just the way our parents do. They take care of us, scold us, criticize us, love us and support us. Our life wouldn't be worth a penny had they not been there for us. Whatever we are today and whatever we will be in future is and will be only because of our teachers/mentors. The way our parents teach us to walk holding our hand our teachers make us walk to compete against the world, to fight, to be different . While doing this they inculcate ethics and values in us. Mostly teachers who are very strict with their students are also ones who love them the most. They shape our lives and try to make it perfect from each angle.

A Teacher is someone who is a guide,support,counselor and motivator to each one of us. More than all of this a teacher is a friend. They guide us towards the right path, motivate us to do better. It is they who make us believe in ourself, they who teach us to keep trying and believe in us. Most of the times, we try harder to achieve a goal just because we know that if we didn’t they would be more hurt than us. When we bring smile on their face it is the moment of satisfaction, we feel we actually achieved something. Their immense faith and trust in us is what makes us work hard and do better each day.

Just like Parents love us unconditionally, our teachers do the same. No matter what you do, they’ll always be there to love you, hold your hand and teach you which path to take. Always there to give you that extra push needed when you think you “can’t” and when they make you believe u “CAN”.

Life

Why do people ever argue? Why are there times when even after having immense trust on someone we fail to believe that person? Why do sometimes even after knowing a person in and out, we doubt if we really do? Why does life sometimes seem so painful?


Life gives us many such experiences when people we know suddenly turn out to be totally unknown to us. A person may sometimes exhibit certain qualities which is absolutely unrelated to his/her personality. It is very difficult to differentiate between people like these and those who are genuine and fake.


A lot of times we refrain from speaking the truth because it would hurt people around us, but we fail to realize that by not conveying the truth we are being enemies of our loved ones ourselves. A person who speaks the truth to his/her friend is a true friend. A Friend would never lie to you,if something is not right a friend says that it isn’t and not lie just to make the other person happy.

Sometimes truth comes in between people and thus gives birth to altercations. Sometimes these altercations get so worst that it becomes very difficult to instill the feeling of positiveness and friendliness back again into people. We often have altercations/arguments with our friends,parents, siblings or our better half. Most of the times this takes place due to misunderstandings, also when there are people you know in and out and suddenly you discover the person to be a fake. The trust factor gets a beating here, everything slows down and then you start wondering if people really are trustworthy or worth believing in.



Life isn’t a bed of roses, even if we believed this statement, it wouldn’t be true because every rose carries a thorn in itself, it grows with a thorn and in the end the thorn can leave a scar. No matter how long it takes, a wound will heal after sometime but a scar never heals, a scar remains for life.


In life, we should always make sure that we do not hurt anyone by our actions or words. Like Time once gone never comes back, words and actions are two things which we would never be able to undo and erase no matter how badly we would want them to and a scar left once will never leave.

So whatever one does, at the end of the day try to erase all the bad or negative things out of your system and live with the memories which bring a smile on your face, because life is too short to cry over what happened, the best way to live is to forgive , forget and move on.
