What can I say?
Each and everyone have their own point of view and they are very entitled with their own opinion. Knowing that, people are still too harsh on their opinions towards other people. Sometimes, no matter how polite you wanted to deliver your opinion to a certain situation, people will still be misunderstood and think that you are too arrogant with your point. Thing is, we really cannot please anybody. When you do sometime bad, they complaint, and when u do something nice, they still have something to say to you. Where to stand? To be nice and kind or to be too harsh? Isn’t it in on the same outcome? Is it better to be too harsh and to act and look hard in front of the people? To let people say you are a bad person but deep inside you, you are just showing them what you want them to see to avoid comments or complaints?
Someone once told me that at the first time he saw me, he thought I am too hard to deal with and he honestly thought that I am a bad person. Sooner or later, when we get to know each other and hang out most of the time, he confessed to me that I might be only acting to be bad guy in front of the people. My answer? Yes. It is easy to accept that people will think bad to you and say that you are bad than proving them that you are a good one. Also, it is easy to prove them wrong by showing them what is real not by telling them who you really are.
Because I believe that when you tell people who you are, they will still be in doubt to believe you. So why tell them if you can just show them? My favorite statement is “I can show you better than I can tell you.”
