I am rude, therefore I am strong
When you are walking down the streets, when you come to interact with people or see how people are acting with each other, you will realize that everyone hates the other unless otherwise shows up & may be will still hate you and treat you as an enemy. I was in a bus going to university then that situation happened. One of the passengers told the driver in a rude way that he wants another banknote because the change he was given was badly torn. Logically – and yet not so normally – the driver replied in a worse accent “Look at the money you have just given me before you open your mouth”. Two people who have never seen anything bad from the other are just treating each other as enemies. As if giving the other torn money is an insult. Why do people like to show anger and hatred? Is it for showing strength? Dignity? Honor? I don’t think so, but unfortunately they do think so. The most honorable man Prophet Muhammad would have done as they did when he was hurt. Or they think they have more dignity than him? When will the outrage is replied with goodness, you will be able to beat yourself and yet feel you are the better whatever the other thinks about you.
