I was bathing, getting ready and suddenly this thought came to me, which leads to self ignorance. At times i would see it as something good but yet could be bad thing too. I think there is a term for it after reading wat i got to say..but watever it is...for now i shall jsut call it self ignorance.
Self ignorance...how canit be good?!...i mean ignoring one's ownself is something not easy and yet could be bad. By nature i think most of us are selfish people, the only difference is the level of selfishness we show. Or maybe it should be the area or things in life that determines our selfishness...One could be selfish in, let say area A but then could be generous in area B...But that isnt my main point. How can self ignoring be good?? it can be good as that people learn to be more selfless, and think more about the bigger picture. If people can see that putting other's need before their own needs and resulting a great result in the bigger picture, wouldnt that be a good thing??
Now how can it be bad??...ignoring one's own need excessively is just not good...Everyone has a need somehow, but just totally ignoring it wont bring us any good. At times we need to satisfy ourselve before we can put other's need before us.
Well i can start to feel i'm not making any sense in wat i'm saying, coz i can feel the tireness starting to creep into my mind rite about now, so i better start be quick before i forget everything.
I also think u might be a little confuse with i'm saying. What i'm saying is that we need to learn to be moderate between being selfish and selfless. At times when being selfless and in the overall big picture, it might turn out great, no matter how much unappreciated effort or the pain that one go thru. But by doing it excessively, we will come to a point where other is more important than one ownself. We will forget that at times ourself is just like every person who has needs and at times need to be a little selfish.
What is to be selfless or selfish, it depends on how u see things and the situation u r in. Everyone has a different thinking. The only difference is how one choose what is the path they should take in that situation. In a situation, one can choose to take the path where other's are more important, which leads to self ignorance, and to some it maybe call an stupid action or the righteous path. Or the path that is more selfish, satisfying one ownself. Anyhow it is up to one to decide which path one should take....
Ok i guess my mind really isnt working rite now...when i in a btter shape and in the mood mayb i will just retouch this post if not then too bad=P...
