Knowing me - knowing you .......

On a cold - cold winters morning a little bird was sitting in a field, shivering, minutes from freezing to death. The next moment a herd of cattle passed and as they passed a piece of cow dung fell on top of him. He couldnt believe how unlucky he could be, but while he was sitting there, contemplating his bad luck, he felt that he was warm and that he actually felt like singing... Which he off course did. A cat walked heard his little song and dug him up from amongst the dung and ate him up.

Moral of the story - when somebody causes shit in your life it is not necessarily a bad thing and when somebody gets you out of the shit, it is not necessarily a good thing!

Has it ever felt like you are selling your soul, your birth right, by taking help from somebody else? Why are people doing the things they do? Why am I doing the things I do?

People want to be judged on their intentions, but they judge others on their actions. What am I trying to say? People don't always intend to do a negative thing, but what do they actually do and do they actually realise what they are doing and how it affects the other people around them?

We all need to take a step back and really try and analyse why we are doing the things we do, what do we truely expect from others and what causes our disappointments. We tend to rasionalise our actions - finding "good" reasons, why we are doing or not doing certain things.

I believe that there has to be balance in everything - for every action a reaction. One cannot continue to take from others and never give anything in return and visa versa. Either of the scenarios wont have ideal results. Life will balance itself out eventually.

So what am I giving and what am I taking and from whom?
