If someone asks me what is one of my greatest strength, I would say I had meaningful conversations with thousands of people or spent significant time in understanding people, partly as part of campaigning for Vote For Sure or out of general curiosity. So I can imagine what an average person would behave like given a situation. Any new personality type I meet, it is possible that it is in my dictionary. My life took me through being considered as rich, middle class and poor. Even after I started earning money I did not find happiness in it. So I struck off money, things and people that come with only money from my priority list.
When no one is watching, I go to ordinary
people and talk to them either be a security personal or house keeper to learn
what they think about others and what is happening with their life. I think, it
is better for me to talk to them rather than bitch about a girl. One
important and common trait I noticed is that women have the ability to
multi-task quiet gracefully and are much more human than men. May be it is
because they go through painful labor contractions and know the value of life.
I feel I am protected always by constellation of mothers. So my first
impression towards them is 'admiration and talk as if I know them before'.
I
have difficulty communicating not because of difference in language proficiency
but because of the way I think and process. I don't understand what most people
consider simple things or complex things. In the same way, people don't
understand me either when I share my thoughts. Because of this, I initially
spent lot of time to understand why and reasons behind this. It is not funny as
it sounds because I distance myself from people and spend time lonely. It is
one of the difficult part of my life and will remain forever because people are
lacking inclusiveness and unable to realize difference of opinion. I found great insights about life in general, and spirituality. I respect everything around, be it a person or tree or anything for that matter but no conditions attached. I am now trying to balance both my way of life and socially acceptable way.
Humans
have been on earth since 2000 years but still we see 90% of the people are not
happy with at least one thing and in fact percentage could be close to 100%. We
still have problems which we could have solved in years time but they were not.
Such a kind of thought process took a whole lot of my school time, and concluded
that there is something fundamental in thought process that is missed by most. So I started being skeptical of path of what most people take. I suffocate when
people discuss about things that come only with money. Of course, it is the only
language of most.
My
school friends continue to mock my idea of ordering drink different from what
they order every time we meet. When I was working in UK and Gurgaon, India, one
of my colleague used to debate with me because she hates my opinions. She kept
saying, she hates me! But her husband accepts difference of opinion and usually
welcomes my opinion. After many days, she accepted that I am correct but
suggested me that I should not differ with people :) I agree, so I don't
involve in casual talk. My close friends say that I can strongly argue on either sides, and can prove or disapprove any argument.
When
I completed my engineering I thought I would join army but I lacked clarity on
my career path because of financial difficulties. But I choosed path which is more challenging because enemies are invisible and, in fact, enemy takes
new different physical form, from one person to another. I wish I will
counterbalance little at least.
Enemy
is 'not knowing how to wield power and thinking that power on your side makes you
right'. Male dominance - men are usually physically powerful so they think they are right and raise hand against. President
not worrying about opinion of few segments - he thinks he is right because he
is President.
