In my point of view
Our difference, I believe it is something we have to overcome. I choose to believe that God put all of us together for one reason. All of us are different in our own way, our habits, talents, interest. Sometimes, even I feel that it is TOO different, how do we even usually talk? I feel that every one of us should try and learn to embrace each other's difference. Sure, some of us are not used certain stuff, those things are not in our comfort zone, but this is when we need to step out of our comfort zone and to really unite together as one. I tried, I mean I remember once saying "they are sooo lame and childish, I don't know how to talk to them!" But I guess I really tried to just talk to them, and I realized that it is not that bad after all. If only some people know what I'm trying to say. It takes effort. In life, there sure will be people that we find it super hard to talk to. Like no matter how hard you try, you just can't seem to find a common topic to talk about. I've experienced that before, but THINK. You see these people at least once every two weeks, you cannot just go on not talking to them or anything right? Then may I suggest, talk about the Word of God. I'm not asking you to preach, but maybe just do a little sharing about what you feel about the word. I hate to say this, but I really don't like the barrier, this invisible gap between the group. I don't know if others feel it, but I do, and I don't like it. God created us for relationships (or friendships), and God didn't say to only be friends with a certain kind of people, the bible teaches us to embrace everyone and everything. Just look at the 12 disciples, all of them have their flaws. Some of them lie, some of them kill, and some even betrayed Jesus. But still Jesus still choose to love them no matter what. In the same way, we must learn to love and accept people for the way they are and still treat them like any other friends. Also, I believe that to make any relationship successful, it takes two hands to clap. It is pretty pointless for someone to continually trying to ask and care and then on the other end, the person is not trying his or her best to avail himself/herself. Sometimes it's just unfair isn't it. Honestly, isn't it just simply being rude if you ignore someone's text? Okay, if some people don't check their phone is okay, but to see that you've seen the message and yet choose to ignore. Think about what kind of message you are trying to send across to the person that is texting you. How will that person feel? Through all these, I really think I need to pray. I need to have wisdom and more patience. I don't know what others are thinking, really. I am not them so I am unable to stand on their point of view. Do they think that we do what we do because 'we have nothing better to do' and that 'we are too free'? That could possibly be one of the reasons, but that is definitely not the main one. Sigh. |
