In life we wade through multiple scenes of good, bad, happiness and contentment. There’s just no one who’s forever happy nor forever sad. It’s often curious to notice that some of the most successful, materially rich and well placed souls are the most unhappy. They land up being critical, sarcastic and rather sadistic in their interactions. If by fluke of circumstances you need to work with a colleague in that pitiable state of mind, you either should learn to ignore, disrespect or yield to the taunts of words and deeds and live in misery.
Closely looking at such people over years, it’s this realisation that’s seeped in that these mortals are store houses of remorse, dissatisfaction and materially hungry beings who are never grateful for anything they have. Here we need to appreciate that there’s a difference between pride of possession and humility of gratitude.
If someone is proud of their position they can only radiate arrogance and vanity. Grateful people remain humble and carry an aura of self respect, dignity and charm of amicability.
Every being in this world has their own share of talents and limitations. As per their ability each person achieves their dues. Just the fact that someone is wealthy and affluent it’s mindless to gauge that as a measure of accomplishment. You don’t need money, power or position to be gratified or happy. Infact wealth management and fear of loosing power and position are often the greatest triggers for ever sarcastic socially repulsive people.
Practising gratitude is an element that comes from self love, self discipline and perseverance to improve. What do people gain by hurting and demeaning others. The day you step down from your power and position you mingle into oblivion, beware.
