Being yourself when most people think like you, where the environment is right, is easy. The challenge is to maintain your integrity in a place where most people think and act differently from you. An even greater challenge: to be able to remain with its unaltered principles and values, so as not to corrupt yourself where adversity prevails. Certainly, you have to be very aware and sure of who you are and what you think so as not to be part of the group or to look more like one in the “herd”.
However, it is always prudent to exercise caution in the face of people and situations that we do not know, especially when we suspect something, many people have a very distant image of their true essence, perhaps because they think that the character they wear is much more interesting than they really are. Even they may not accept themselves as they are.
- It is often necessary to pause and wait for the other person to come forward.
- Be naked or give indications about what they intend to do.
- It is not prudent to infer or judge in advance.
- Because we can come to erroneous conclusions and be frivolous.
- You have to be patient and tempered.
- Because sooner or later people show up.
- Nobody spends all their time pretending what’s not.
- It takes trouble to disguise.
- Put on the “fantasy” and the “mask” every day.
- It takes time and energy.
- If that doesn’t happen right now.
- We have to wait.
- It doesn’t take long.
- And soon we’ll know who the guy is and what he’s coming from.
Impressive, but hardly anyone gets away. There is only one opportunity and, immediately, the person gets naked, and one of his facets is presented to us, as it has always been and is, does he show us if he is courteous, if he is integral, if he has character, if he has consideration, If it is to be trusted? I think that moments of difficulty allow us to see who the people really are, because what they have always hidden comes to the surface, not even the varnish remains, it is also an opportunity for us to find out who our true folks, because companies have fun, drink beer, barbecue and play cards, there are countless, always ready, available.
Do these people think they are smarter, smarter than others and still think that others are idiots and can be handled with some ease, that they will never discover their true side, so they always give us a certificate of fools?Are you cheating with attitudes, false speeches and smiles, a lot of half-truths or the nonsense they say?Unfortunately, looking like someone isn’t enough, and most do. To be a real person, you have to prove and do it anywhere. You have to have firm principles, solid and not malleable depending on the situation or suitability, or the individual has them or not, it is not possible to invent in an emergency.
It requires a good education, a solid foundation and many good examples if we want to adopt it, all this does not depend on the economic situation, because there are very poor, simple and educated and very rich without education and without rudeness. it’s not tied to justice or money. You can’t be a little honest; the subject is either honest and decent or it’s not. It is a fact that these values are becoming rarer, not for everyone, I would say for very little.
Do you recognize great, unpretentious people in small attitudes, small gestures, details, subtleties, minutiae?Are they simple, clear, direct, honest, don’t snuggle up, trick us or try to sell us?Something they don’t even have to deliver. Those who claim all the time are pure deception, but each is each one!
