Sharing is important, but not at the expense of your requirements. Compromising is a great gesture, but not at the expense of your dreams. Helping people is critical, but not when they don't value it.
"A little boy walked on the road eating his hard earned bread. A girl, he admired, asked for some. The boy finally realizes that she ate it all, and walked away thankless. "
While we all teach our loved ones on the importance of sharing, compromising for siblings and friends, and helping; Many of us fail to explain the end limit for this kind gesture. You may find my posts radical, but the fact remains, that after a certain age, we need to teach our children to "Be Selfish".
By nature, the female is more considerate while the male more practical. A lady compromises her ambitions, dreams, likes and dislikes, many a times for her parents, siblings, husband and kids. But, the world is changing. And the need of the hour is to 'Think about yourself first, then your immediate family and then the rest of the world."
And why am I saying this? Simple - Never have a reason to blame others for things you couldn't achieve. "Only if my father allowed me to go abroad! Only if he let me choose my career path, Only if my mom allowed me to marry the one I loved! Only if my husband supported me! Only if I was free of any responsibility of my wife and kids! Only if my boss gave me that awesome project! Only if I had money to work on that idea and the list is endless..... "
Things could have changed if only - you would have got selfish , strong, determined to do what your heart said and not what the world!
