The Tortise, The Rabbit and The Horse ...

A lot of time in our life, we hold different views on certain things. It is completely normal and nothing to yell about.

However, a lot of time, when we feel that our views have been insulted, challenged or not appreciated, we found ourselves caught in building up walls of defence and guarding our fort.

And to win our game, we start to advise opponents to let down guard, which in fact we ourselves have already unconsciously constructed our line of defence.

Only at the end of the day, when emotions allow some form of calmness and senses to penetrate, we begin to realise that the ultimate objective of our view is actually for the good of the situation, and not for stirring up the whole chunk of defence mode.

So who can be the humble one to take a step back first and said hey let's not talk ego, let's talk real. The real thing in LIFE is --- no view of two equals. We just have to learn to accept and make things work round our different views.

I have a story to tell:

An old Torstise said,"I can run fast." An old Rabbit said,"I can run slow." An old horse said,"Take care of your health."


What said has been said. What's done has been done. Don't take it too hard and Don't push it too hard either.

Hey!

I agree man.. i am by nature a very defensive person who strive to get my stuff as perfect as possible. I cannot take it when people telling me that i am not good etc..

which ended up losing quite a lot of friends! ALOT. nowadays, i think i'm making effort to change that away from me.

So like you said, whatever done is done. Let's work for a better tml! :D
