Salam and good evening to you all~
I used to feel indifferent whenever this particular classmate of mine called me "Bodoh"/"Stupid"/"Pabo". yet this chinese girl would call herself clever.
But as time passed by, i started to get tired and feel annoyed and irritated and agitated..
And i thought to myself.. Why ignore? She'll be bigheaded and will continue oppressing me.
So sooner or later, i started calling her "Bodoh" back.. "Stupid".. and also "Pabo".
You can call this revenge.
You dont like people calling you that..then why started it first? Are you trying to create hatred?
I pretty well know that revenge is haram, in the islamic context. But she was definitely asking for it. And why do i keep letting people bully me verbally? In this modern world, humans step on each other as a ladder to their success.. They just wanna be on top. And they dont care what happens to others. I've experienced this while pursuing my journey of knowlegde.
And i can see the changes going through me. And so does my family, relatives. I dont know whether you guys noticed. Coz i always act "crazy" whenever i hang around with you peepz xD
I used to be an introvert to the max.. only an extro whenever with my cliques.. However, now i've saw a glimpse of the real world, i've seen myself not caring what others may perceive me as.. And i would stand up for myself whenever people look down on me or shoot sharp words at me.. Whats the use of keeping quiet and let them feel superior? They will keep stepping on you. You'll become a toy to them.
Here r some lessons for all of you.
Never let your guards down.
Step up for yourself.
Identify a true friend from a "not-so-good" friend.
The later might backstab you. Plus, gossip about you.
Be strong.
Be unconcern of what people perceived you.
Never let them crush you.
World, Where is the love?
