Sometimes it cannot be helped; people get nosy over other people's
lives.
We like to talk and discuss about others -
the negative and positive.
The positive I encourage, because to talk
about the positive things inspires us.
It beautifies our thoughts. Like a gem of
ruby, gold and silver,
and dusts of diamonds here and there.
Yet we are inclined to talk more about the
negative- most especially the negative:
it fuels our fascination; the juicy
stuff. And the juicy stuff we like to share.
How sweet is the mouth that carries it to the ears hungry for
entertainment!
Are we bored or just obsessed?
The negative stuff, if it does not
concern you,
and if harmful to the people involved when told,
then my dear it is better for you to close your ears and shut your
mouth.
Don’t talk about it nor think about it anymore.
You won’t explode if you do.
Refuse to be a channel of bad vibes. Nor
be a source of it.
If we cannot control our own lives, there
is no use in trying to control others.
Or worst; try to fix it for them.
Isn't it funny how we always (always) see other people's mistakes
and not see our own?
Their weaknesses, flaws, and the many
imperfections,
we perceive and think and talk about over
and over again.
We are all busy analyzing other people when
it is not our business at all.
If we can only stop, and look at ourselves
instead, and be the change we want to see.
What a great amount of work to be done!
What habits to change and values to develop,
and what thoughts to vanquish.
Perspectives to shift!
When it is easy to blame others, quick to
judge and point fingers,
assume so many things,
then it is time to quit.
Quit your obsessing.
Get over it.
Instead of asking: Whose fault is it? Why are they so stupid?
Why not try: How else can I think about it?
What am I responsible for?
Then maybe, no, I am sure,
there will be hope for peace and happiness for you.
