Being nice to make others like you – 03 Feb 08

Today my mood was better again. I am not a person who can be sad for a long time. I get this emotion of sadness but quickly I find a reason to be happy again. I love to laugh, I have a happy nature. However when sadness comes I accept it. I have experienced extreme sadness in my life. I know what it is. Accept the situations and feelings. It will make you strong.

At the dinner table we were talking about being nice. It is very common here that people act and try to be nice so that others like them. I think I am a nice person but additionally I am always honest. Maybe this is not appreciated by my surroundings sometimes and some people might think I am not nice but if there is some feeling inside me I cannot hold it back. I do not suppress it. It is the truth and by suppressing it I would not be honest and I would deny my own philosophy. So I have to say what is inside me and as it is the truth people accept it. I say clearly how I feel but I am never unfriendly.

    Kindness and compassion come from honesty. Compliments or other things from politeness or charm aren’t about you they are about the person that is spewing them.

    I do this, every person in my family does this, some of us are real nasty though when other people aren’t there. It’s no good.

    I’m starting to believe that honesty i the best policy, simply because there is no way to keep from hurting other people, even if you ARE nice all the time. So be honest, there are a lot of good things that come from that, things you’d never see by being only nice and lying all the time.

    I do think that, in the end, people appreciate someone who is real and honest more than someone who is fake just to please others. Even though you might disagree with people, if you do it nicely and with genuine truth (rather than disagreeing just to cause friction) they will appreciate your realness and authenticity. I am working on this myself… so thank you for your lovely guidance, Swami Ji. 🙂
