 | Everybody dreams of becoming the best in every aspect in the human life where there are competitions. We join contests to win. We fight to prove we are the greatest. We all want to get the golden cup or the sparkling medal for recognition of our glory and hard work. In short, we are all born to fight just like the saying “survival of the fittest”.
In our way to the top, we gather friends and peers for help and support. They make our goal-hunting easier and hassle-free. Providing laughter and smiles to wash the tiring competitiveness away.
But of course, when the road to our goals gets nearer, everything changes from flowers to thorns. Earlier, I have said that everyone wants to become the best. But sometimes, some of this “everyone” is your friend.
This is when the war begins.
People start to drag others down so they could work their way to the top. Either you deny it or not, we possess this attitude. Crab Mentality. To win, we strive with our best until we realize that our best is not enough, we resort to our last option. The dark evil ones: backstabbing, lies, gossip, etc. All of these under crab mentality. We destroy whatever good we have gathered through the way just for the prize on top. The flowery – friendly adventure has turned into greedy self – centering quests.
What we don’t realize is that our friends, the memories, the smiles, the laughers…everything, is more than the prize that we kill for. All we have to do is open our eyes and see this. Then, everything will be more different starting from you. |  |
