157. Trying to understand

The human psyche has been a study of interest for me as long as I have been trying to understand people and why they behave in a manner peculiar to them alone. No two persons behave, think or act similarly but throughout life, in the process of meeting endless numbers of people, I have come across only a few, maybe a handful who seem to understand me. But my inbuilt radar system somehow catches stray waves of people's behaviour and I, humanely human that I am, try and mirror the behaviour of the other person, which ofcourse means in short that I am concerned about that person and wish only happiness (with no gender biasness whatsoever!!) and want them to come out of that quagmire!

However, in this jet-paced life that all of us lead, love, patience, understanding, concern, thought for the other would probably be words alien to us in a couple of years, maybe months. If only we took some time to understand our brethren, the problems therein, become more sensitive, maybe we could ease the pain for someone and bring the much needed change that we all talk about day in day out. 

If we look around ourselves, we tend to meet more lonely people than people who are happy.They might be smiling and pretending to be over-the-top-happy but once we start talking, we find a person  who is ailing to be loved, pampered and cared for. One reason might be that we are not talking about our problems with family, friends, well-wishers, best buddies across the table. There are no problems without solutions 'cause there is a key to every lock that has been manufactured. 

Trying to understand a person can be a big task but no task can be a mountain if we start to climb it one step at a time!
