Life – “we need new eyes”
So Dhoni’s honeymoon stint with Indian Cricket is about to end and that too on a sour note. The reason being he couldn’t deliver in world cup t-20 which most of the players still consider a fancy form of cricket and not the actual one where you show your skills. They don’t remember how successful captain he has been and has even lead Indian team to top rankings. It’s not only about Dhoni but it’s about people who fail at some point of time and that point forms a memory for other people, the result being they are more remembered for their failure rather than for their successful period. Chetan Sharma is more known for giving a six on his last delivery to Javed Miandad in a match against Pakistan, while the bitter fact being no one knows that he was the first person to take a hat trick for India!
We have a habit of seeing other person in a negative shade regardless of what all constructive work he/she has done. We just enjoy doing this because this makes our ego swell with pride. How he can do this, when we couldn’t! It’s just not cricket but it is a common nature which is seen almost everywhere. We are made to grow like this where we learn to envy rather than praising. Our deepest fear is that we are inadequate. Success is a personal and subjective achievement; we have made it more like a relative term where we become successful only when we are bigger in terms of wealth and whatever factors you count. That’s the reason why people remain unhappy. They can’t see other person grow. Instead of growing themselves they keep on trying how the other/successful person would die down.
When will we really grow up? A person who can’t see his mate grow than how do we expect that he will see or help the society grow? Society is made of different people and it only grows when the people in that particular bunch grow or want to grow. We should learn how to praise and help others. There are few exceptions always but we can simply ignore them and move forward than only we can be among the top guns. We just need to change the way we think or take things. We need to change our perspective towards others. Just a new pair of specs would do which can show everything or rather everyone happy and enjoying the success of others.
