When people show true colors

When will people show true colors, when masks fall down? Everything is great until you have harmony in relations, no matter is this love or friendship. Until you support and confirm other opinions, until you stay away from discussions, you are peaceful. In this way you feed another ego, you are not a competition and there is no reason for envy or jealousy.  Once when you have a conflict with someone, things are changed. Suddenly you see a real face from your friend or lover. Then you can see how indeed that person respects you and what he/she really thinks. Denials and rejections are not easy. It can be very painful, unless you are a professional person who offers some products to customers, and they deny and refuse to buy. That is normal that you will say no to Jehova's witness who rings on your door, to people who are hired to sell brochures because they can be indeed boring. But they will not cry if you deny them, because it is their reality. Someone

Do you throw your frustrations to others?

You know the feeling when someone is getting on your nerves, but for some reason, you can't respond properly. You depend on this person and you will swallow your rage. When rage is placed deep inside you, it will find a way out. This rage is traveling until the right target. So, the poor victim is the third person, someone who is in the wrong place at the wrong time. The mother comes home after an exhausting day at work. Her boss gave her a hard time, but little daughter asks for attention, she wants her favorite candy or she lost her Barbie doll,  so the mother should help her to find where it is. - Damn, leave me alone. I can't open my eyes, I am so tired. Can't you give me a little peace? The little girl will be offended without special reason, just because her mother did not face it with problem eyes to eyes with their causer. A new man comes to a business company, he progressed as a boss. His employers are in fear becaus

Do you wish to stay young forever?

In the story of Oscar Wilde handsome man never get old, but his portrait of youth getting older and older. He had eternal youth and his soul was black; he was full of vices and evil. He became so unhappy that he committed suicide, and suddenly his portrait became young again. We are dreaming of eternal youth. That is why is Twilight saga so popular, there are handsome vampires who are young forever and live an eternal life. This is impossible in reality, but that kind of trend is everywhere. We can stay young and extend our youth for some years, with few tricks. As long as you are young, your chances to survive in this society are bigger. Photoshop on Instagram gave opportunity even to plain people to stay young, so if you wish to play with your smartphone you are welcome into this illusion. Recently I read about a woman from Croatia who lost her job in public service, she is 42 and she sent many appeals for a new job, but employers denied her because of her

Are we slaves of the own addictions?

Look around and you will see a cloud of smoke and a person with a cigarette, man who gamble, people with glasses filled with vodka, wine or beer, and a bunch of other people busy with computers. All these are addictions. Life is hard and we need someone or something to lean on, to make our own mislead that all will be alright, in the moments when we don't know where we are going. Someone will say that gambling, smoking, drinking or playing video games are things for weak people without character. Someone will describe such people as losers without friends and real life. But can we judge someone without looking ourselves inside? Of course, there are just some steps from casual smoking until addiction crises, from current gambling until dangerous game with roulette where your money can burn and you will be in financial trouble, and also here is familiar story about kid who died thirsty and hungry because he spent 2 days in front of computer by playing video games.

Did you face it with treason?

Face it with treason is a hard kick in the ass. That moment when you realize that trustful person is traitor, someone in your life with whom you share trust, confidence and give part of yourself is indeed mole, the discovery of treason is a great shock. That Caesar and Brut story can't leave us calm.  What is treason indeed and who are traitors?  Indeed, a traitor is a selfish person. When someone is a snitch, spy or rat, that person is selfish. It is the opposite of loyalty because when you are loyal you are thinking about your friend, you don't want to hurt him or her, you are careful and you have balance. But indeed treason is a kind of weakness, and a traitor is a person with a price. Now you must only find out how much that person costs. The worst kind of treason is in the area of friendship and love.  Life will give us situations when is time to choose.   It is hard to stand between two fires. For example, the b

Who is manipulating us?

The oldest and the most dangerous weapon in human nature is not anger, rage or wrath. That is the ability of manipulation.  We can see results of manipulation on every corner. 1. beggars on the street - have you ever wonder who is that person who asks you for money, is he/she really so poor? What people see is a superficial view. We can see the mother and her child, how she begs for coins. But where is the father of this child and where is social service? We can't help a poor child with giving money, because the mother is not a responsible one. A responsible mother would find a job or a man who will take care of her. But this kind of mother is asking for compassion, condolence, not a solution how to get out in this situation, because she is lazy to work or because she is afraid to face it with her problems. And on that way, she uses an innocent child to manipulate with the crowd.  Also, I know a woman who has an adult son, an invalid in a chair, and

Did you forget your honor?

Once upon a time, there was a handsome knight who fought for the honor of his lady. If someone insulted the lady of his heart, he started a battle, intending to win or lose his life. As time is passing by, we forgot the values of honor. Nowadays we have different choices, and we will not ask our men to die for us. But together with past times, honor became something old-fashioned. Some men will think: "My woman knows how to defend herself, she is swearing and drinking more than me, so what should I do, to stay without teeth because of her? No way." What happened with a feeling of dignity and honor? And why guys lose respect toward women in some situations? Here are examples. The woman opens the profile on the social network. If she is not traditional, big chances are to lose respect, to be invited on camera for striptease show or to be insulted. But different attitude doesn't mean always that she wants sex or that she is promiscuous. T
