Its so easy to extend niceties to all those whom we like/love. Everything seems so effortless. There is so much joy in doing things for those we love. But, the same cannot be said about those whom we dislike. Sometimes this dislike is absolutely frivolous. You probably may not prefer to be friends with people outside your own community/ religion or with people whom you think do not belong to your strata of society or probably share the same line of thinking or probably someone whose face/ideals you dont quite like. What one forgets is that the world comprises of people from different walks of life who are as human as any of us but only divided on the basis of colour, religion, boundaries, tribes and sadly wealth too. Sometimes people spend years living in an area without even having exchanged a basic 'hello' to people living in their own building, forget about befriending people in the locality. With urbanization, one sees huge towers mushrooming all around, but somewhere it has also resulted in people going into a shell. Unlike in the earlier days, when everybody knew everybody. There was warmth and care in the air. People did not think twice before saying a 'hello' or wait trying to seek the prefect opportunity to say hello to another person. Today. a mere 'hello' is restricted to society meetings of the building or maybe if someone comes over to invite for a celebration or religious ceremony at their place. Sometimes our selfishness takes over and we want to be friends who will be of use to us. Life is so unpredictable. It is always better to be nice to people. When you meet people, wish them well. When you see them in the down's of life struggling and in pain, show some concern, even if you dont like them and if possible extend whatever possible help that you can. When you see they are hurt, dont gloat like a sadist about their wounds but rather extend care, support and your time to help them recover faster. When you see that they are celebrating, dont wait for an invitation like most of us do, instead extend your joy and best wishes for the same. If you feel they have'nt invited you on purpose/ or not the way you should have been, don't let the feelingof ill harbour in your heart for them. You will be surprised to know how a small effort of your part can surprise and melt even the stoniest heart. It is always upto to you how extend your hand of friendship, especially to those whom you dislike and take your first step towards inner peace. Because when you are at peace within yourself and make a sincere effort towards friendship, love and care, you are also unconsicously doing what god wants each one of us to do. Extend the goodness in you because you want to and not to show the world or expect anything in return. Its good to be selfless too. All it takes is your own will and determination. Take a step now..
