Simplicity: A Boon or curse in human life?

In our day-to-day life, we all have so often seen about some people who are very simple in nature. We also like them and discuss about their simplicity. Also people discuss that all should be simple human being like so and so. But in reality a simple person suffers a lot. The people take advantages of his/her simplicity. Many times, this simplicity becomes a curse for him. As a simple person’s heart is clean and pure, he/she does not adopt complexity in turn people exploits them. Now tell me what is the fault of a simple person? Is Simplicity is a boon or curse in social life? Let’s discuss it because it is a known fact for all.

We know it well that all people in this earth are not same alike. Their attitude, behavior, character differs a lot from each other. All can not be same also. But we should nurture good quality of human beings so that the existence of us as human being can be justified properly. Definitely simplicity is a boon. A simple person never makes any damage to others because he believes in true humanity. He/she always perform his/her duties according own conscience. As we know conscience never tells us to do wrong things, definitely a simple person’s deeds can never be wrong. A simple person always fears about god or he believes in a super power. He/she always asks to himself/herself that if I do this thing, will it be right/wrong. That means a simple human being always thinks good about others. He wants to help others. He/she does not cheat anybody. Basically simple persons are too miles away from the selfishness and cheating. As their thinking is noble, so their work does not harm anybody. They can understand the plight of others because their simplicity nature helps to go through the heart of others in a real manner. Also they may be poor, but they are always in forefront to help a needy one as they always believe their conscience.

But, I have seen practically, how people take advantage from the simple persons. They often talk; see that person is so simple, even though people cheat him/her he/she does not able to know that. They also treat the simple person as a foolish one. They often cheat/harm him/her in many circumstances after getting help from that person also. Do you think to make harm to simple persons is a right work! All simple persons are never foolish one. They do not want to cheat others. They do not harm others. They are always in their own world. They do not follow any falsehood. They do not posses any arrogance. Their hearts are always noble.

I have come across many simple persons, who also know that people cheat them because they are simple. They get hurt deeply in their heart because they do not harm others rather they help others. But people take advantages even though personally they sometimes also get help from them. It hurts a lot to me. I asked to myself, being simple has a curse or what!  In my life I have faced this problem also. I am a simple person with true heart. I am emotional as well as helping person. Generally, I may not take part in merry making social gatherings but I take part in pain of others. I do not harm others. I help others as much as possible. But people take advantage of that. They take help from me and talk against me in front of others. Whenever any problem comes they come to me and I try my level best to help them and I have seen those people try to harm me a lot after that. The surprise thing is that they come to me again and again at the time of need and I help them always. I get a lot of pain in my heart. I think about the people. Also by the grace of god, I do not take help from them but I always help them when they want. Many people also blame me that I should not be simple. I should be like them so that I can live peacefully.

Now all of you tell me, whether being simple is a curse? Should not we adopt the simplicity in our life? Should we do not follow the virtues of being human? As a human being we should praise the persons who are so simple in their heart, deed and thinking. We should pray to god that all should adopt simplicity virtue of human being. At least we should never make harm to simple persons because being simple is a noble quality which is very difficult to acquire. There are many great persons like Chanakya, Abraham Lincon, APJ Abdul Kalam, Lal Bahadur Shastri, Pt. Sriram Sharma Acharya and many more. They were in very high positions of fame and power. But their simplicity always makes them great. Simple persons suffer in life a lot but they are always great because of their true mankind. One may not earn money or power by simple nature but simplicity provides true fame which can not be diminished ever.
