A Piece of You.

IMG_20231211_231136.jpg


We all want to speak our minds as a sign of freedom. We want to explain things and also address everything. We just want to get things out of our minds without caring how it affects anyone else. We want to feel good with ourselves and leave the other person worse off, sometimes.

We just want to keep focus on ourselves without caring about how it makes others feel. We sometimes don't weigh the actions in relations with the outcomes. Most people speak before they think and when they now realize how deep the effects run or when they learn the other side of the matter, they feel bad.

We always give people a piece of our mind rather than a piece of our heart borne out of love. There are times we need to address the issue and there are times we need to overlook. I am never against correcting people...but there are times you study the situation and stay away from a fight you shouldn't get involved in. I noticed, most people address the person rather than the issues in their attempt to address a situation. Never attack the man IF you must really speak about the issue.

We need to let the power of love override the love of power. There is no need to oppress others so that you can feel superior to them in some capacity. We always feel the need to fuel our ego. Have an aura and not an odour. Life is more than what you can see...what influence are you spreading around?

Most issues we address they don't really worth it. There is no fuss about it. They are issues we could perfectly overlook and still be fine, but our ego wouldn't allow it and the need to pull the other person down out of our own insecurity makes it hard for us to look the other way. As humans we have ego and we are insecure about certain things too. Where is the need to oppress others? Most people focus on themselves...think about others and put yourself in other people's shoes and imagine how it's hurt.

My popular quote says "If we care enough, share enough, then the world would have enough. The world have enough of our needs but not enough for our greed."

Give people a piece of you - your love...your heart...rather than just a piece of your mind. We could do well by cutting people some slacks and looking the other way sometimes. What are you doing to build others, improve yourself and to make the world a better place? What's your quota to others instead of focusing on your ego?


Thank you for your time.

This is a masterpiece. I thoroughly enjoyed this and I must say you nailed it. We need to be more loving, more tender and correct in love. When we correct to help rather than to rub it in people's faces, helps. Lovely piece.

Perfectly true. Some people lack the attributes of been tender when correcting and at the end of the day, they discovered that the correction didn't even do justice to what they want it to do. It is necessary that when we want to correct, we should correct in love and wisdom actually

Absolutely...it's totally unnecessary but a lot of people can't live their lives without the need to show others they are better. It's sad.

We always want to rub things in people's faces so we can flex our superiority. It's a sad reality about humans which is totally unnecessary and unacceptable.

That is true. Loving and tender, if only a lot of human understand the power that lies in been tender and loving, they will try to incorporate it in their lifestyle and this is cool to see. It is just a matter of time before it starts to shape. It can make us correct people easily without fault or bitterness but quite a pity only few understand how powerful this is

I myself have seen many people in my life who don't give time to their families and later they face a lot of problems and that is one reason why the relationships that are there are not strong at all. When a person gives time, things become more special and stronger and each other is more happy together, so we all should try to live our lives in such a way that everyone is happy with us.

Many people have fail to understand that not actually every time we should express our mind. Yea I understand that it is good to at times say what you are feeling in order to feel better but at times it might not actually be favourable because the words might come out harsh and offend the other party and that's why we must distance ourselves from it. Not everytime we should express our mind

Exactly...it's not every time. We can overlook and just allow people be or just break it gently to them to let them know it's from a place of care and not about superiority.

Perfectly true. Sometimes we actually need to let some people be because that's just also one of the ways they can learn. Most times I have come to discover that some people take one for granted at times probably due to familiarity and many more

A wise person is one who can give time to both his friends and his family and try to live a good life with them in every way. In the same way, every person should try to live a good life if friends also support him.

That's very true. I have always believed that we all have two way to things. We have this side of been positive and we have the tendency to be negative and optimistic about things. We should always try to show people our positive side just as you said. We should make sure that what they are getting from us is of positivity and not negativity

Yes...we need to let it be known that it's from a place of care and not because we want to show we are better.

Everyone has the both side. No matter how the situation or challenges might want to tempt us to show the other side, we should always show the good side to people. It has a way of influencing people and changing their perspective about things. In fact even if they wrong us, we should not show them that other side of us. We should be loving render no matter what may it be

One of the truth I have noticed about people who tried to correct people is they lack the right approach to correction. It is one thing to find fault and want to correct it and it is another thing to make use of the right corrections. Also one of the things that affect people is they are not always mindful of their words. They just say words that does not live in between and they begin to suffer from the consequences. We should understand that words are powerful and it can actually make or mar us

You are very right on this and this is what has been affecting a lot of people most of the time. They try to want to correct and they lack the right approach to correction. At the end of the day, they discovered that those corrections were not even taken and they begin to suffer from it. This is what we should actually abstain from. Words are truly powerful

Thank you very much. She explained it perfectly and rightly so. Approach indeed matters and it says a lot as to the motive behind it.

It's always about the approach and most people don't do it because they care but because they want to show they are better. Approach matters a lot.

This is lit and everyone should see it. It is very important that we observe every situation before getting involved in it

And I love your popular quote... that's just what the world needs right now but unfortunately no one is willing to share enough.

Perfectly true. Quite actually necessary to observe some situations before damping into it so that one will not actually get it complicated as it becomes. If no one is willing to share it, I strongly believe it is just a matter of time before one begin to share enough

I agree with your perspective. It's important to empathize with others by putting yourself in their shoes before offering corrections. Communicating with love is crucial; people generally dislike feeling judged, and the way you approach the issue matters a lot.

What a great post friend, to frame in a picture if you could, usually many people do not have empathy towards the other person wanting to show off so to speak, there are many ways to correct people, you just have to know how to use the right words and correct to solve that problem or situation that arises, great post friend ♥

We always give people a piece of our mind rather than a piece of our heart borne out of love.

I think this really strike one critical aspect about me. Most times I am always tempted to express my mind and truth be told, it most of the time does not end well. It looks bad so I have been disciplining myself not to always express my mind

We should always try to treat people well and not like trash. We should love one another and always try to help each other in the time of need. Let's always be our brother's keeper

It is a fact that some people cannot understand all these things and do not give time to their family and continue to live their lives like this and when a person needs a family again, she definitely supports them. A person then realizes that a person should give time to every person because wife, children, parents are also a person's family and there is no stronger relationship than them in the world, especially those who are siblings are also of a person.
