They say too much of a good thing is not good at all. And it's true, too because it generally applies to everything. We all want all the good things in life, that's right, but in a certain circumstance we have to embrace all the bad situations that happen to us so that we will appreciate all what we all have now.
There is a major difference between an idealistic and realistic world. What we have been taught, is the ideal things that we should have done, the ideas whe should believe, ideal living lifestyle that culture have brought us, ideal this, and ideal that. But none, whatsover, have been brought up to the realism of life. The world, or life is as REAL as it can get. We are all bounded by the laws of physics that until now, we are still unable to describe it accurately.
If this world is ideal, then we should belong in heavens. But for heavens sake, we're on earth !
We are not trained to reat realistic-ly when we face difficult situations. Why? Because in ideal teachings, there is no such thing as a difficult situation. It's just campaigns the positive morals that should be inculcated into individuals, ie, 'be good at this, do good in that, always be hardworking and everything will fall in place" . If so, why there so much suffering in the world ? We are not lazy. We are not, not good. We tend to do the best thing in every execution, but still bad things happen! What is wrong here ?
So what point am i getting to ? Okay, in the real world, as i see it, it not ideal at all. We are living at a delicate balance of negative and positive things that occur to us. Some people define it as karma. Things don't happen as we plan, because there are almost always an unexpected things that could happen along the way. The best way to face this kind of situation is to manually face the problem, deal with it, and prevent it from happening again. This will definitely have an impact to others initally, but facing and dealing with can 100% prevent from impacting the others. We have to face certain amount of difficulties so that we can learn from it, and at the same time creating methods from happening again.
I recently had a heated discussion with a friend lately that subsidy is a poison. He said it as an aid to a certain group of people in meeting a certain objective. In my belief, initial subsidy is very good, but it is only good when applied once. The continuity of granting subsidies would weaken the individual by making them more reliant on others rather assessing self potential and creating a dependent mindset.
An example of 'poison' subsidy ? Well, the easient example is a defacto case of giving cheaper quote to a certain group of people because they are economically weak. It is very good, if the provision is granted at the first place. The same set of people will ask for subsidy again even though they can afford it without having the subsidy. Worse still, they still defend of having the subsidy because they still classify themselves as economically weak and 'in time' they will eradicate the aid. Bullshit, as long they are still around, they always be a subsidy. This will only create an unfair battleground to others, leading to accumulated envy, jealousy, and amuk in a future time.
So what now ? Well, as they say, we sometimes have to learn things the hard way. Yes that is 10% true. Having learning the hard way will inculcate positive attributes to attitudes, ie endurance, preserverence, or whatever you can associate with. But this time is different. Now it's all about timing. Time is the ultimate governing factor of life. It is the most important variable to concentrate with. Time is associated with intelligence that we have so that we can make the most out of the time that we have.
The good thing about the human race is the supreme adaptability given all the conditions they face. And it's due to the supreme engineering of the human brain, they can create ways to adapt the situation in the pursuit of acquiring advantages to them. In this context, this applies to our supreme mechanism of thinking that will allow us to establish more better ways to pursue our objectives. We have to be independent, we must know how to be independent and dependent intelligently. This will ensure that whatever objectives we have to meet is achieved with respect.
I'm not campaigning arrogance. Arrogance is a negative attribute of independence without the help of others, but actually needs some serious help.
