Its Their Problem

Oftentimes we are faced with criticism from people around us. Sometimes this criticism can lead us to betterment and improvement of self.

However, more often than not, this criticism roots from the frustrations of people who are inflicting it upon you. Another reason behind this attitude of picking upon others could be only to prevent boredom, because most people could not keep themselves occupied with constructive endeavours and hence their lack of creativity shows up in the form of unjustified behaviour like poking fun at or commenting upon people's lives.

It is my personal observation that people often knowingly or unknowingly pick upon their own family members like their children and it is mostly done to the more patient one. The one who wouldn't retaliate is often commented upon the most.

Another set of behaviour is not letting people be at peace. If in a family or an organisation, certain members are at peace or content with what they are doing and try to keep growing at their own pace, it is not taken very well by others. This is actually the result of their narrow point of view, due to which people are not able to think broadly enough to see that people can be content and happy with what they do or with their present state, while striving for better at the same time.

Sadly, most people do not have the courage to live their lives completely in the sense that they could never break the vicious cycle of the criterion set by the world, which leads to frustration and sense of unfulfilled life. This multiplies over time and comes out in the form of aforementioned behaviour or attitude.

So, the next time someone makes you feel any less or tries to pull you down to their level, don't let them succeed, rather, know that all this stems from their discontent and you need not fall into that dark pit as them. Help them come out of it if you can, but if they refuse to do so, the least you could do is not get pulled down into it. Know that its their problem and not yours.

Also, it is very important to live a life of your choice unless you are bothering anyone else, because if you don't live a full and content life, you'll end up sad and frustrated yourself and become the propagator of the vicious cycle like those around you.

I'm pretty sure we all have had our share of experiences of this kind, where we were made to doubt our thoughts, decisions or even our physiology which we have little control over. Don't keep it to yourself, share your thoughts and experiences in the comments.
