Mentality differs from person to person. Yes, mentality of all people can not be same. But at the other side mentality should be positive not negative. We human being are superior to all other creatures in this world. Our neurons in the brain function very actively. We have the capability to understand everything. Then why do some people exhibit rough and crude behavior? Why do they possess negative mentality? All of us must have come across this factor in our life. I am narrating some incidents where people’s behavior shocks you.
I had gone to one book shop recently for purchasing some printing materials. The shop keeper is known to me and near around my age group. As now corona pandemic scenario is very dangerous, I told him, “Perhaps govt. will go for imposing strict lockdown again so that the virus spread can be checked”. He told, “no there should be any lockdown because people will die due to non-earning”. I told him, “See, the spread is very rapid and as we have elderly and children in our home, they will be affected more. There life will be at a risk specially the elder mass because most of the elderly people have comorbidities”. Utter to my surprise he told, “In India there are more than 137 crore people, if one crore people will die nothing will happen. Also let elder people die. They have lived lot, why should they live more.” After listening this I was stunned. What an absurd and crude mentality the person has!
In this corona ongoing lockdown phase, I had come across one young person who is known to me. I also told him, “See how corona pandemic spreads rapidly in our country. People are affected and dyeing He also told, “See sir, let some people die. We have a large population. Nothing will be in loss”. I told him, “You are young, your immunity power is high, but elderly people will die as they possess less immunity power due to age and other comorbidity diseases”. He also told, “Let elder people die. I will be happy and I will dance”.
There are so many under incidents but I have only narrated these two. Now, tell me those two persons have their own elder parents. But what is their mentality. If their parents get affected in corona and die unluckily, will they be happy! I told these incidents to some other young people. They reacted and told that type of people are mad and possess sick mentality. They get sadistic pleaser by seeing others’ sufferings.
I have observed that a lot of young mass who are married, only consider family which include their wife and children. They will get pain if something will happen to their own family but they do not have feelings for others even if about their old parents. You tell me, life is precious for everyone irrespective of young or old. We do not know what will happen to us in the next moment. They why do we exhibit negative mentality? Why do we show wrong and absurd behavior? What is the guaranty that they or their partners/children will not be affected by corona!
I have already written three blogs about pain sharing, personal pain, and life which emphasize the positivity of human emotions and feelings. The point here I want to keep that we are human beings. We have enough understanding and feeling powers. So, we should share our feelings. We should show sympathy at others who are in distress. The life is very fragile and uncertain. Within a minute everything can be destroyed, so we should possess true humanity. We should be compassionate in others pain and sorrowfulness. Why this false vanity and ego! Nurture your conscience and exhibit positive mentality. A positive mentality gives true peace and happiness and people will like you as you have feeling attitude towards others who are in distress.
