Love how reality speaks….
Around 8 months ago, I was told that I am being too hard on some of the decisions, people or friends. So I made a decision, if I am hard on people then I rather make it a point to lossen up. However, I used the most powerful tool “Trust” to ensure everything runs well. Its a rare commodity, that no one would dare to just give it away.
Well, I did. That decision proves to be disaster.
Not only was it broken, but an abuse of privilege on the freedom granted. The twist was so far backwards, only time will tell. One might say, oh, too much relaxation or perhaps the responsibility wasn’t there.
But the funny thing was, it a decision which one makes, internally. Be it friends, collegues or by person of authority. We tend to find reasons(more of an excuse) for it or perhaps an action that justify the means. For the sake of comfort, then again, everything happens for a reason. True character of a person can hide when facts are there to prove otherwise.
The truth be told, that most of us knew about it. We chose to keep it away from particular person(s). Is it betrayal? You decide. The worst crime, we chose to do nothing. Not one, nor two but all. Sounds familiar? Perhaps it sounded like … well… politics…
Politics can swing both ways. Its a double edge sword. The environment we create, irrespective how we find reasons and shift blame, will never wash away for who we really are! Shocking isn’t.
Today, someone told me, if we have the wrong color in the wrong place, its no surprise how everything turns out the way it is. It took me a long time to think about it. So long in fact, the whole morning wondering if reality hits me.
Funny thing though, tonight, I put this same question to another person. Its the wrong color, what are you going to do about it?

Of course Steven.
Reality have spoken and the solution is?
People have always fear facts and preach fiction. Its easy to say “Just do what you FEEL”.. It takes more than that. If everyone thinks of I FEEL THAT or JUST DO IT, its an environment which one sets their own standards rather than the standards of others. After all, there are the human factor which one does not sees.
