Consequences

November 7, 2006 · Filed Under All Entries 

There are times that it is better to leave a person suffering from a consequence of his action and not try to alleviate the pain or mend the broken pieces. For in doing the latter, you are only denying him the lesson that he needs to learn. Help him carry his burden but do not try to take that burden away from him. Some people need all the pain they can get in order for them to learn their lesson.

“By three methods we may learn wisdom: first, by reflection, which is noblest; second, by imitation, which is easiest; and third, by experience, which is the most bitter.”

Confucius

    sa totoo lang isa sa prinsipyo ko yan, just happened to me recently..no actually a friend was left by her bf..grabeh halos parang gusto na yatang mamatay …hindi ko siya tinatawagan alam ko naman narerelease nya yung pain sa iba naming friend e isa pa kahit na ano sabihin mo sa kanya di niya inaaccept ang mga advises so I think I better leave her that way muna … let her feel the pain and realizes whatever happened between them (ex bf na nya)and learn from that experience dba … saka na lang kami magkwentuhan ulet pag okey na siya.

    pero kailangan din natin i balance. if we think he can make it through with us probably we should let them be for a while.

    melai:
    minsan kasi medyo nakaka drain din makinig sa mga problema. pero we should be sensitive them to determine when to let go and when to be there.

    cheh:
    probable. pero what im talking here is yung mga self made na problema. yung mga naiwasan sana kung nakinig lang sa mga payong kaibigan. hehe. pero all of us have his own stubbornness talaga.
