Unconditional Acceptance
There are beautiful days and
other. There are beautiful people and other.
What
is so special about being beautiful?
It is not just about the view from the outset. It is
about the gentle breeze that caresses your skin, and it is about the lullaby
the birds chirp together. It is about the way that nature at that moment makes
you feel about yourself and the rest of the world. That is what makes an
interaction with nature beautiful.
Some people also have that kind of a vibe. They can
make you feel great about yourself with their words, action and love. It is
those people who I most respect because it is difficult to imagine that they
have not been hurt or have not had bitter experiences. Beyond such, they put in
extra effort to make the people around them happy and loved.
They say, “It’s scary how much a smile can hide.” I
think that smile which hides the person’s pain is the most beautiful and the person
who can see right through it and tries to actually make it wider and heartfelt,
a real friend.
These people do not crave to be perfect, but they have
embraced their imperfections. They understand that when you yourself are not
happy, you cannot spread the vibes. By accepting and loving their own self as
what they are and only wanting to make themselves into a better people, they
find happiness in all the little things in life. Accepting ourselves as we are
is the first step towards accepting other people as they are.
It is very easy to judge a person being one in the
crowd. It takes heart to put in an effort to try and get to know the person. Don’t
judge the person before you have actually had a chance to interact with them. You
may or may not experience the same vibe from every person. Even in music, there
are a few genres you would feel addicted and a few not so much. You don’t go
preaching around saying not to listen to the genre of music you don’t like. Even
if you do, the people who like it are not going to accept your words. It should
be the same with people. You either get along or not, don’t go around giving pessimistic
opinions about that person to others unless you think he/she is a serial killer.
Then, you should probably sound the alarm.
You always have choices that you can make. Let’s
consider a scenario; I give you a very bad opinion about a person. So, you
avoid initiating a relationship or even a conversation with them. A few years
later, you somehow end up getting to know that person and you totally connect.
Would you not feel like I gave you a wrong assessment of a person whom you
actually would have liked to have connected without losing out the few years?
So, it is better to let people understand every other person on their own. Just
because I did not vibe with someone it is not given that they cannot connect
with anyone else.
Everyone wants acceptance and no one has a right to
take away someone’s fair chance of getting it. People’s fair chances are
already tampered with by sexual, religious, caste and racist ideas filled with stupidity.
First of all, we have to learn to let go of the little
insecurities we have and embrace the glorious mess we are. Forgive ourselves
for all the mistakes we made and love ourselves unconditionally. Accepting
oneself changes the person’s perspective so much. It helps see the beauty in
each and every soul. Hence, accepting others in their own way becomes as
natural as it gets.
Let us stop worrying about others accepting us and
accept ourselves, then lend a hand in spreading happiness by accepting others.
“Happiness can exist only in acceptance.” –
George Orwell.

Hey, guys! Thank you for taking the time to read my work. I thought only
people who know me well did read my work. But, thanks to some of those souls
who have made some advertising for me in their circles and helping me reach a
few more people with my ideas. Hope you like it!
If we are meeting for the first time, I’m Nandha. I’m not a spectacular
person with any superpowers or even amazing grammar. I just write what feels
right at the bottom of my heart. Do drop a comment, if you think it was worth
the few minutes of your invaluable time.
Thank You!
Have a great day!
