Hmm… one more of those days when sleep refuses to honour me! And so, I thought I might as well utilize the time writing something…rather than just tossing on the bed… but no thought coming to my mind right now… guess the mind is just too relaxed to think
But wait, if that’s the case…then why can’t I sleep… I though one sleeps better when the mind is relaxed….chuck it man…who cares!!!
Btw…now that I’ve been doing relationship counselng for sometime, I must say that this has been the most satisfying exerience of my life…. and I’m so thankful to people who encouraged me to start with this… Today I was doing some couseling for my bhabhi (my bro’s wife) and at the end of it I asked her.. “Are you convinced with what I said?”… She said I guess so… but the thing is that whenever I talk to you, I feel fine and I can think rationally and see my own faults as well… but whenever a similar thing happens again, I forget everything and there starts the whole cycle again…why is that so? And to be honest that confused me as well… for sometime, it made me think that when I counsel someone, do I just make them feel better for then or do I try to solve that problem forever by givin them a perspective from the other side of the table? Well… to my mind, I try and do the latter and also, I try to give proper reasoning behind whatever I suggest…otherwise why would they ever listen to me? But then, the question remains… why do we forget those things the very next time? And when I really thought about it, I figured that it happens with all of us… anger/frustration/disappointment makes us forget how we solved the same situation the last time… and we then need someone to remind us of all those ways yet again…but then, that’s what relationship counselors are here for
With each problem that I get from people, I feel more and more lucky. With each passing day I’m evoloving more as a human being, as a wif, as a partner, as a friend…I thank my stars that I’m not facing any of those problems in my life…All the stupid things that we call problems seem so tiny and meaningless.. I’ve started valuing rlationships so much more…. I think there’s nothing better than this to really learn about life….
hey sakshi,
in my opinion this all happen just bcoz we (human) dont really want to blame ourselves for some problems or sort of conditions.
sometimes it might turn into this way that we are (in today’s scenario) so much used of others opinion or suggestion that we e1 cant decide ourselves the reason behind such silly mistakes..and we kept on doing same mistakes on and on coz in some corner of our heart we r still thinking that may b this time the person (or conditions) might get turn up in another way or in favor ..
Very interesting post…this made me think.
Sourabh…u may be right…what i also feel is that sometimes despite knowing that we r wrong, we can’t accept it…we need someone to tell this to us in so many words…
Shivanand…thanks!
