Day 21 |
|
Posted at Wednesday, April 16, 2008 |
We just saw you again. Think you were sleeping as you didn't move much. Well anyway, the doctor said you were engaged. So I guess it's really anytime now...
Well your lesson for the day - Learn to back off from an argument when there's clearly no way out. Often in times, you'll find that your opinions differ from another person. And sometimes, you may get into arguments over your point of views. You may try your best to convince the other person of the soundness of your way and vice versa. And if things get out of hand, you may find yourself arguing more and more vigorously.
Well, in times like this, take a step back, think of something else and let it go. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions and when you have already tried your best to prove otherwise, then there's really no point in getting upset that they don't see things the way you do. Afterall, if everyone saw things the same way, the world wouldn't be in such a mess now.
That said, it's important for you to keep an open mind as well and to always accept that you may be wrong. You can't always be right - but then that doesn't mean you should be indecisive. Be firm in knowing that you are right but at the same time, be open to the possibility that you may be wrong. It's a fine line to thread I know, but it can be done.
As you grow up, you'll find that there'll be a set of guiding principles in your life that will govern the way you do things. And as long as the principles are intact, you'll be able to differentiate what's right and what's wrong and learn to recognise when you may sometimes be on the wrong side of the fence. |
