They say that doing good is forgetting oneself to give everything to others, but that’s not true. Acting properly, with integrity and promoting the well-being of those around us, does not mean “abandoning us”.
He who always seeks the best for everything, acts according to his inner voice and according to his own values, otherwise it would go against your own essence, and then you would seriously harm your identity.
- They say that there are disappointments that make us open our eyes and close our hearts.
- It is a pain that forces us to be more careful.
- But that should never lead us to lose the ability to do good.
In a way, this idea reminds us of something Saint-ExupĂ©ry The Little Prince left us to do: “It would be crazy to hate all the roses because they stung us. “
Therefore, because we have suffered a disappointment, we will not hate the rest of the world, and even more so, to change our own philosophy of life having experienced many, if not many, disappointments. You can dress with caution, with the precautionary armor, but never give in to bitterness or hatred, it’s not worth it.
We all have more than one personal story marked by disappointment, some have done more harm than others and others have forced us to lose the original innocence with which we come into this world.
They say that even the most passionate heart is tired of being hurt, but even if we have many wounds, we must never lose the ability to love, to love those who truly deserve it.
In life we invest time, emotions, dreams and hopes to achieve certain goals, sometimes they are just aspirations, other times it is the life invested in certain people who, at some point, can disappoint us.
We should never let ourselves be taken to those extremes where values are completely broken, when we lose our values we lose everything, and if you lose the ability to think that it is not worth it, you are no longer yourself. recognize you every time you look in the mirror.
Everything that happens in your life, good or bad, accept it, integrate it and keep moving as lightly as possible. If you hold a grudge, you will walk slowly; if he keeps the anger, he will seek vengeance; if you hide hatred, you will be blocked and you will have completely lost your ability to do good and generate happiness in others.
In this life, we are but brief passengers on a path where those who go through hatred and resentment can enjoy the journey with more wisdom and integrity.
We know it’s not always easy to deal with disappointment, but if there’s one thing you shouldn’t allow, it’s that other people’s bad behavior will implore you to the point of changing, making you think there are no good people, or even. , good people always end up getting hurt.
Take note of how to protect yourself from disappointments in your daily life, whenever possible:
Think of disappointments as a renovation: it’s an experience and a clear example of what you don’t want to repeat, never lose the ability to do good even if you’re disappointed several times, even if you fall several times.
