Silent Sound of words

"He just cannot keep his mouth shut!" "Why does she not hold her tongue, she does see who she is talking to!" "That person is so irritating that I can snap their neck"

So many times in our lives we are hurt by what or how people speak to us. We are hurt by the words that pierce our ears and make us vulnerable to the emotion of dejection and sadness. Our hearts are torn into pieces, our confidence lost. For some this is followed with tears of sorrow, for some anger and pain, and some react in a violent manner.

There is no excuse for the person who does speak the hurtful words and make us feel the way we do. but why do we let ourselves get hurt by this person. He/she may be a close friend, a relative, a co-worker, a well wisher, boss, or any one who you are speaking to. WHy do we let the words come into our stream of emotion and play with it?

There are few things that we can control and the way another person is speaking or acting is definitely not in our control. So why are we troubling our senses on the words or that are uttered by the person? There is no power in the universe that can enable us to make them stop or avoid such beings from existing. 

Fret not, for a solution does exist. We are the solutions for this problem. while we cannot control the way the others act or react to us, we have the power to shield ourselves or get immune to such words of derogation. We can make a choice, a choice to be in a place of happiness even though the given situation is not in our favour.

In a famous bollywood movie, Munna Bhai. He asks people to start a revolution called Gandhigiri, do not bother of what the other person is doing but smile and retaliate with warmth and kindness. Its easy said than done isnt it.

I have been reading a few religious books recently and am finding that forgiving the offender is much more powerful than wasting my energy on the ones who have done wrong against me. Its a burden that you let go. The day I said, "I forgive you!" I was truly and sincerely happy. You can do it, by sending flowers to the person/s or maybe a thank you card or email. Anyway possible make the other person know that there is a hope for humanity to better itself.

We are into pointing fingers at the rest of the world but we are not willing to make the transition ourselves. Why wait on the world to change? Lets rise and make the world around us a better place. 

The next time you hear those awful words that have just pierced your heart or made you feel miserable. Just say, "Thank you". Remember, this person is making you feel. He/she is making you realise that you are just human and are possibly gullible to the way of the worlds. It is ok to be Human, else you would be an insect or an animal or just a fish in the sea. You have the emotion to shed a tear, to smile, to wake up and appreciate the life you have. Which other animal on this planet is so fortunate to do so?

Just like the way we celebrate our happiness, we should take it in us to celebrate our sadness and pains as well. Lets rejoice in the silence and be the happiness that we dream of being and let not the sound of words bring out the negativity in our lives.
