On bending rules
December 8, 2007If there’s one thing that I value most about myself, it’s the fact that I always mean well. Each one of us holds our own set of ideals, beliefs, and values. Imagine waking up one day and you realize you have to bend some rule… In fact, you realize that if you deviate from some of these set of ideals; it will be your passport to becoming a better, happy person.
Almost! Because as soon as you realize that it will give you a sense of being whole, you found out that the very reason that you bended your rule for have deceived you. How will you take it? What if despite the fact that you meant well, you were subjected to the opposite by the person you care(d) for?
These questions have troubled me for the recent weeks. For a certain event/circumstance, the persons involved will always have different stories to tell. It could be for or against those people involved. Or it could just be that in the story, people not involved in the plot are trying to retell the events according to the scenarios that suit most their need for spicy and juicier twists and turns.
Just a thought…

It all comes down to clarity in your communication. What are these things that you want for yourself and for others? How do you go about getting or delivering?
I’d prefer not to call them bending rules but making adjustments. Things change, so do processes, it’s part of being human and the beauty behind it is how you respond to the call of change. So try and adjust to whatever you feel is right.
I hope this helps.
Peace.
