All our lives, we keep having this irrepressible urge to justify every action we take, every word we speak and sometimes even every morsel we put in our mouth… Why! I ask… Why do we always have to keep proving ourselves to the crowd… Why cant we be what we want to be and not what we want the world to see us as…!!! Is it because we want to be accepted?? Possibly yes…
But Is that what we are living for? Sometimes i believe, you need to keep justifying because of lack of communication on either your part or the other one concerned… But, then again, Why does communication between two people suffer? Is only the language (or the lack of it) to be blamed for the same??? Not always… sometimes, we want to hear something and we thus condition our minds (or ears) into hearing something that we want to hear and in the process miss out on what was actually spoken… Even then, the root of loads of misery still remains… the need to justify!!
And I guess, As long as there is human subjectivity and as long as we continue to be “social” animals… This need will remain!!
Is it because we want to be accepted??
yup, this is the key to survival.
u cannot survive without being accepted.
its just ppl respond to this neeed of acceptance in different ways, some want to make a mark a life, for dear ones we choose the right words.. u rightly pointed out, in the end the final answer is ‘communication’.
truly portrayed the complexities of being a SIMPLE human….:-)
Well… it depends on how much can u carry yourself around with “I dont care” :).
With a close person you would not want communication gaps, with others you might be ok.
In my case its a combination of “i dont care” and “i am lazy” :d
You yourself are justifying what you think @ anyone’s need (including your need).
If I understand your post correctly, I think you want your blog thoughts be accepted.. 😉
Well.. don’t think much about such stuff…coz in a way you are not achieving anything..
To anoymous: Sometimes thinking about such stuff is better off than not thinking at all… coz life will most certainly take u at a crossroads, where u will have to think… The thoughts expressed here is entriely my opinion, people may chose to agree or not agree – thats least of my concerns. If the blog can make u think, i think my purpose would be served…
Lovely… what a shot to me 🙂
hey buddy.. what i mean is any blogger when puts the thoughts across.. there will always be 80% expectation of thoughts being accepted. And when you defend.. I think u get angry.. hey cmon.. it’s just a blog.
I think what u r saying is to think wellbefore than the situation actually occurs.
Let me tell you, you never know what you will think/react when something happens in your life. (Even though u have planned some thoughts for some situations)
By the way.. your reply is appreciated. you did not reply to my comment on other posts 🙂
Hi X, Your point taken 🙂 And I was not angry… 🙂
Its the matter of being at peace with oneself. At higher level of spirituality one doesnt feel the need to justify his/her actions. Of course its easier said than done. Justification is a sign on insecurity.
In my opinion its a sign of “lack of confidence” in how one relate to people.
Strong relationships dont need justification.
