Who are you?

that's really a puzzle!

Seriously if we had to think hard and answer this question, 'Who are you?'. Really, 'Who am I?' How whopping do we all think we are these days? Well self-esteem is great to have but its intriguing; what gives us the arrogance and brashness that we habitually bare to the rest of the sphere? What happened to modesty and unpretentiousness? Where’s that art of being selfless and benevolent while simultaneously working towards higher goals and meeting greater targets incessantly (that’s should be routine anyways). To keep that head on those shoulders and those feet on the ground. Honestly, who do you think you are?

Don't you know who I am?

Sometimes we just never seem to get the message. Yet again when you hear this question, it arouses a very negative and heated response in your brain. The fact that someone dared to ask you that. The truth that they didn't think you were extraordinary enough to be given the regard you feel you deserved. The question should make you reflect within yourself and introspect a bit to really reappraise yourself and where you stand. 

What is it really that makes us so great?

• I’m wonderful because I manage this big company
• I’m superior because I work in the police force?
• I’m an edge over you because of my looks?
• I rule because I’m in the parliament?
• I rock because I’ve a flashy car?

Really? The answers to these questions are more like you are that ordinary (or as extraordinary as any other) human being who works to earn his daily bread for a living and uses means of transport to get to places and likes to look at himself in the mirror once in a while to monitor his appearance. Why do any of these traits make you so special?

Get clean

No it’s not the branded body washes and cosmetology cleanups that cleanse you. Rid yourself of these self pounding thoughts that pull you down and disburse your energies in negative emotions like anger, arrogance, contempt and hate. The more you are dissatisfied with the people around you, and the way you ‘feel’ they should treat you; greater is the torture you inflict on yourself by complaining and feeling perturbed about it. War has never lead to favorable consequences. So stop battling the world and most of all yourself. Start treating yourself special because you are special no matter what everyone else thinks. Don't change their cognitions or actions; learn to alter yours. That will change the way you see them and with a bounce, they will see you better too. Look into the mirror and truly SEE who you are.

Reality check

We all were born special. Each of us is unique. There are no 2 fingerprints on the planet that match each other, and it will be so for several millennia to come. So we must not forget that we are all are exceptional. What we usually tend to overlook is that everyone around us is distinctive too. If we have regard for ourselves, there’s pretty tall chance that everyone around us deserves that honor too. They are as unique as you and have as much self-respect as you do. If each one realizes that and respects the other, there will be no room for anyone to ask: Who the hell are you?
