What will they say?

We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves.

Buddha

Which cloth will they appreciate today?.

Will the pink one work the charm or is the red one more suitable?

I should probably go with the blue one or is the purple cloth much more better?

Should my hair be combed backward or be kept in a ponytail?

Would it be better if I had lip gloss on or a red lipstick or maybe I shouldn't apply anything?

Should I walk like this or like that?

How would they appreciate my tone of voice toward them?

Maybe I should work on a change of voice?.

Where would they want me to pass today?

Should I walk left or right or just be at the middle?

I need to do all these to perfection because of what they would say.

The work I got is that of a receptionist,I can't do it even when I know I have no other alternative.

Do you know what they'll say if they found me in such place?

No, it better I sit home and continue searching.

But what if they insult me for not taking the job?

Omg!!! What would they want me to do!

******************************

I'm definitely putting on the blue gown today.

I'd better leave my hair in ponytail, I'm tired to change the style.

I should go by bus today as it would be faster..

Surely I'll be putting some mascara and lip gloss to match.

I'll definitely walk by the right side as it much safer.

Starting the new job as a waiter even with my qualifications is so alarming.

But it's better I start from somewhere instead of waiting for a miracle to arrive.

I need to work with what I have to get what I need.

After all no one would feed me if I go hungry.

I won't let that pull my spirit down, I'll be having a great day ,that I know.

*****************************

The comparison between the two dialogue above can be well noted.

The first one speaks on someone who wants to do things in order to please people , what will they say if I were to put on a pink dress,they won't like it!

What will they say have led many to their early grave.

Many opportunities have passed by because you don't want to engage in menial jobs because of how people may view you.

Dreams have been lost with no hope of rising again.

They said I wear this same cloth a lot, I'd better use my savings to be used to start up a business to get some clothes so they'll stop complaining.

They even commented on my shoes today, that should also be changed.

Surely, if I listen to them and do what they said of me they'll stop complaining and start liking me more right?

Hmm...

The second part speaks on the other person who do things without looking for people's validation.

This person is sure of him or herself,they motivate themselves even in their trying times.

They know what they want and how to aim at it.

They don't care what people would say and do things as long as it pleases them and do not hurt others.

Conclusion.

We have this set of people in our world today and some of us fall in the first group,doing things to please people.

These people have forgotten that humans are insatiable and can never be pleased.

People will always talk no matter what you do, they'll always be comments and it can't all come out positive.

It is said that when you do things and all you hear is praise all the time then you need to check yourself.

We all complain to God when things don't go our way.

Shouldn't that show that when even God cannot please humans, who are you then?

Whatever you do,do it well, seeking people's validation always will make one fall.

Don't give up on your dreams because of what people might say.

Don't displease yourself to have them pleased because at the end...

People will always talk.

So live a pleasing life as far as it doesn't hurt others and do your best and leave the rest.

Peace!
