Have we Become Cold to Avoid Getting Hurt?

Why we have become cold? Why the incidents and happenings of others life don’t have effects on us? Why we don’t feel sad about others tragedy? Why other's life lost any importance to us? It is seen and observed that whenever we heard about some catastrophic incident, we feel worried for just a brief moment (maybe seconds) and then the very next moment we forget about that incident altogether. All human beings are made of flesh and blood and all can feel hurt, upset, wounded, unhappy, brokenhearted and gloomy. When we go through some kind of pain, we feel like the world is crumbling and our pain is the real while if someone else is in the same kind of pain, their tears seem meaningless to us. When they express their grief, their grief seems to us like they are acting.

Are we really that bad as human beings? The answer lies in our psychological defence mechanism, we feel hurt on seeing others hurt. But what we do because everyone wants to be happy in his life, there is nobody in this world who wants to be sad. So, when we feel hurt for someone whom we don’t know, we don’t wonder how was that person life or circumstances. We shut the feeling at once and divert our attention to something that seems pleasant or meaningful for us. But on the other hand, when we attached our feelings to somebody or something, we feel hurt as much as the other people. But as the time is passing by if anyone feels the grief over anyone’s else we term him or her as he or she is doing overacting or being extremist. You have sometimes heard from people to someone who raises any concern about a social issue.

“Why are you being so sensitive over this? It always happens like this.”

This statement represents our shunning attitude towards various social issues. Why we do not care about different social issues. Here the need arises to leave this attitude and ponder over various social issues. It is us who need to work to make this world a better place to live not only for us but also for others. To express ourselves through words is something that makes us human, different than animals. So, why behave like animals? Care for others as you care for yourself, although you may not be able to do something for them, at least have an earnest and pure feeling towards that person or that community. This will make you humble and pious as a human being and trust me this is the most important thing in the whole world.

Praying for all who are facing any problem💔.
