And when they taunt you!

So, I am here again with another short article. Another frequent problem of our life. And another aspect we need to think about.

Whether it's me, it's you, or anyone else.... we all are blasted with taunts in our lives. Sometimes with our closer ones too. When growing up as a kid, I used to think like....getting taunted is something because of our own shortcomings. But, as I grew up with time and gained experiences I came to know that....I was living in a half truth. It's not just our shortcomings or so, it's the habit of people too. No matter how good we are, there will always be something they will taunt us for. 

It's not just educational underachievement, but anything which is a bit lacking in us. They may taunt us saying, you're too fat, you're too thin, you're too tall or you're too short. The thing is that, the people should find something to crack a taunt on us. It's like a dopamine for them. In my life, I've been through this n number of times. And I know, so would've been the case with you too. 

Being a sensitive creature, I used to feel a lot in my nerves, whenever I went through such a situation. And when the person was someone closer to my heart, it felt thousand times bad. But, growing up taught me.... rather than saddening we should keep a check on the intentions of the other person. 

Taunts are not always meant to show us lower or to project us a looser, or a bad person. It's just the intention of the person which defines the motive behind that taunt. So, we need to take a halt, understand their context, and most importantly, understand their intentions and motive behind that particular taunt. And if it feels genuine, rather than getting depressed and saddened we should sit with them to discuss life and how the things can be brought back on the right track. If they care, and their intentions are good....they will surely guide us on the right path. And, if their intentions are not good or it's just something to make us feel bad about ourselves, we should ignore the shit. Just listen and try to forget it within a moment. What's the point if they can't raise their hand to help us. It's more important to be in peace inside out. 

There is always someone for everyone to discuss the things running in our head. So, go to your altruistic friend,  your family members or anyone you can put your 100% trust on. They will reach out their hands to make you feel good. And they will tell you that....you are enough just being you. They will believe in you and your existence. And not just that, they will always have your back, everytime you need them.

So, what are you stressing over my dear creature? Smile, laugh loudly often, and go for everything you want to grab in your hands. Live it, love it, and grow up.....this is the one time life. Live it the way, you'll never regret living.
