Your Actions define you.

Senti hits

Have you ever thought about doing anything you want, because it's your life and you don't care what other people will think about you? I certainly did and still do.

My parents raised me with an important note that people will judge you with your actions and it will reflect on how my parents raised me. Me, being the good (which I am not, but people think I am) girl and trying to avoid problems, understood the advice wrong - when I was younger. 

Human beings are not perfect. Noone is and will be. Friends think I am so perfect, nice and all. But I also have my bad side, once in a while. Which is not bad at one point. It depends on how you act and react. You can get mad. You can drop everything and quit. But you can also stay calm and let the storm pass. I remember my boss telling me that I should inhale and exhale and that I am doing a good job in keeping calm. 
In my point of view everyone can live an almost perfect life, even if they have annoying, controlling and strict parents. One struggle of the youth are always, always the parents. Because parents want nothing but the best for their children. They don't want them to get in trouble, they want them to have good grades, because with good grades and a certain academic degree, it's easier to go on with life. Yet parents sees everything from a different point of view. Sometimes they don't want their children to experience what they have experienced in their youth, or they want the same good things to happen for them. And the youth, the children sometimes don't understand this. Some live their lives with the saying "YOLO - You only live once".  For every failure they have done or mishap, they will always always blame the parents. For being strict, or for kicking their butt. But since it is your life, it depends on how you act and react to their strictness. It won't help you in the long run to do silly things. Maybe in the short run you will feel happy and free from the chains. But in the long run, you'll look back saying "Damn, why did I do this?" So once damage has been done, you can't erase that part. So you have to act and react accordingly. One has to dig deep in order to fix everything in life. Because once you have reached the root of the conflict and watered it with new thoughts and positive actions, you will grow better fruits and everything else will fall into place.
But some kids and teenagers forget that you can enjoy life, without getting in trouble. And I know that it is hard to please your own parents, because there will always be one kid who will be better than you. And it has always been the parents' problem that they start comparing children with their own. 

Nonetheless, there is always at least one kid who looks up to you. Not because his or her mummy and daddy tells him or her to do so, but because s/he sees you everyday or once in a while. Who sees your actions and want it the same way. And the problem is that once you have your own children, or kids who are really close to you, you will find it hard to be open about your life and your past. You may get scared that they will see you with different eyes, or worse: hate you for doing such things. But there is a reason why it is in the past, it doesn't mean that it should happen again. That is also why you can build a new bridge, even though you have already burned bridges. A fresh new start can begin anywhere. Dig deep and find that inner peace.

One day children will become parents and they will be on the other side. And then they will realize, that they want nothing but the best for their kid. Of course they will not do it in the same way they were raised, but wish to be more like their own parents after all.

And here goes my thursday shenanigans :))
