Jealousy

             We often talk about jealousy. It has both good and bad sides. When you realise, your sibling is comfortable with someone else is jealousy. But, this comes out of love. The bad side is excessive jealousy which makes you hate someone.
              Apparently, no reason is good enough for you to accept the fact that other person might actually be good at heart. Slowly this jealousy turns into envying and you want to hurt that person in any possible way. By making them feel bad about themselves, you feel good.
              You know, there are two reasons for being jealous one, they love you and fear getting replaced and two, you are everything they want to be but can't be.
               You become habitual of saying mean things and when someone says something mean to you, only then you realise taste of your own medicine, only then you know how bitter it is.

Insult

                  So many times, we come across situations which are insulting. May it be a teacher scolding or your friends making fun of you. Naturally we become angry. We think,"How can they say anything about me? Who are they to judge me and insult me?"
                  You know these people are actually indirectly motivating you. When you are in that moment all you can think about is how to prove them wrong. Which indirectly pushes you to do better. All these efforts are made just to prove them wrong.
                 Sri Sri says,"Insults are like cow dung. When you add it to the plant, it becomes manure." Initially when you add cow dung, it smells. When the plant absorbs it and the flower blooms, the odour of the cow dung is forgotten.
                 People are going to insult you anyways. It is up to you whether to take the insult positively or not. You cannot stop people from talking but you decide what pact does it have on you. At the end, if you take it positively, you succeed. If not, you are at loss.
                   
                                  INSULTS AREN'T INSULTING,
                                  THEY ARE MOTIVATING (indirectly).

Underneath the Table

In our childhood I think most of us have enjoyed the comfort of playing underneath the table. What was so comforting about it? Personally...
