Have you ever been criticized? Ever? If you’re thinking ‘No’ then your name is probably Paris Hilton. If your brain raced back to the last time you were made to introspect and recognize, probably not for the first time, a shortcoming you have, then you are, in my eyes, a very noble person.
I feel that criticism is necessary. If no one ever told Steve Jobs that his delinquency wasn’t really helping and his pink-slip handed to him, the iPod wouldn’t have been the fad of the decade. The iPhone, iStore and the iPad also would probably never have been born.
Coming back to where I was, at times, my blood boils when I see this happening for no reason at all. It is not criticism that I’m talking about. It is jeering. Not just that, it is everybody who says something about anybody as just a passing remark. I wish, how I do, that I could make the so-appearing connoisseur exhibit his enviable knowledge on the subject to show the rest how its done.
The ‘it’ could be anything at all.
I will try to illustrate using an example. The usual geeky girl is on the stage
, doing anything for that matter. For the more imaginative reader, I’ll limit it to just a normal singing or dancing routine!
As usual, she messes up. The wild hooting, the name-calling and the roaring that ensues, is a situation we all are familiar with. But is it warranted? If nothing else, I respect the audacity of the girl to get up there. For I am a little lost in that part of the world myself.
If any of the hooligans, yes that’s what it is, could step up and do it in a better way, he has my respect. If not, go look into the mirror and keep looking for 2 minutes into your eyes and think what a piece of dirt you are. Knowing that you’re a loser, you jump at every opportunity at which a person comes close to being within the 100 feet of your flunkee radius. The inferiority and mediocrity with which you live each day wishing you could be just a little better makes you stumble into an even lower level. The feeling of predominance that you experience when you’re surrounded by 10 people, just as shallow as you, is one big lie you have conjured up in your chicken brain you wuss.
Yes, say hello to reality. Run along now, your house is under attack.
If I intend to get a message across, it is just that if nothing else, respect a fellow human.
