DP Daily Prompt: Keep Out Posted by Ranu
The one person who is not reading my blog I hope is my classmate Rina. She will criticize until the ,”Cows come home”. It’s not a good thing. The world unfortunately has a mixture of the good,the bad, and the ugly.Which category does she belong,you may wonder.Let me give you some examples: She is very negative e.g when someone says,’Chaman is a nice girl’, her sister is conceited will be her reply.I know the girls were talking about me. No one knows my sister and it isn’t about her. If I say so n’ so is pretty,she’d say but she limps when she walks. These were some of the instances that bothered me. I know she will not have anything good to say about my blog. This is the way she is. Since my blog is not restricted to a few,and internet is popular all over,I won’t be surprised if she gets the opportunity to read it.

Dear Ranu,
Thank you for this.
There is the saying: “A complaining soul will complain even in paradise.” I have found this to be true in life.
Some people focus on what they perceive is good, and others on what they perceive as bad. They both can equally focused upon. For me, I try to pick the one that contributes to elevation. It can be, as you’ve described, challenging to be around someone who consistently focuses on what s/he perceives as negative.
I like how Iqbal puts things in terms of “I aim; therefore I am.”
Life, according to me, comes down to what it is on which we focus. And who knows…we may indeed become that upon which we focus long enough. I certainly don’t want to focus on my foibles, vices, and weakness, thus making them even bigger than they already are!
Thank you again for this post.
All good wishes,
robert
