Motivational speeches [3]

Art of humility

 

What about… You go for it? What about you take the blame, and still stay strong? Standing strong thanks to your innocence. Your innocence making your neck stay straight. Not letting it lean. Because that would be weakness. Weakness which is making your spirit and your brain doubt. Of your capacities. Of you. Of itself. What about letting it go, while going after it. Standing close yet staying carefully away. Observing it. Observing with innocence and with humility. Humility which is what makes your innocence worth what it is. Would you be innocent without being humble? Would you be guilty of your innocence? No. Humility lets you be innocent. It's like the jug containing the water. No jug, no water. Innocence is a pride. Innocence is honour. Or isn't it? Is innocence your default status? Would a default status be an honour? In today's world, would this fiction be reality? Would the people I meet on the train, in the cafe while reading my newspaper, in a chaotic atmosphere like those during a bomb alert, realise that their default mode of innocence is a pride?… But what if we started everything again. What if we simply went for it? What if… You let humility invade your whole spirit and body through your guiltiness to end up on innocence? Would that work? What about you go for it? Try it out. Tomorrow when you will be guilty, take the blame. Take it all, but stay strong. Keep your neck straight while the next time your innocence will do it for you. Because between the two, you will have learned… Humility.

 

 

Take the blame~

You see there are a lot of things people lack. But there are a lot of things people have. And if they have those things, it is not only there as decoration. It is what makes them. You see there’s no such thing as a glass half-filled with water, and the other half filled with arsenic. No. Flaws are just a lack of qualities. Flaws just represent a missed piece of perfection. So there’s no reason to judge someone depending on something they don’t have. What is it you’re doing? Judging void? Would you judge the emptiness of a glass? No, you would just ignore it. So what are you waiting for? Stop criticising something that doesn’t exist and start admiring something that does exist. Because emptiness, believe me, is one hard thing to describe.

The most important thing would be to look forward. What is done is done, the past is past. While the future is yet to come, the present is in your hands. No life has ever existed to repair the failures of a previous one. No. Plants evolve with their time. So did animals. And so did we. We adapted ourselves not to repair the failures of the past, but to assure the achievements of the future. We have feet to walk, eyes to see, and eventually, a brain to think. And that is for a reason. If you’re going to use that brain oppositely to the way you’re supposed to do, and keep your thoughts in the past, then theoretically your brain shall disappear as it has no more use. Just like our tail disappeared a couple of billions of years ago as it had no more use. Nothing is made for the past. So get these ideas out of your head, grab them by the neck and throw them away. Start a new life. I promise you, that if for once, you stopped watching behind you and get your neck straight, you’d be surprised to see what is yet to come. To see the offered possibilities. To see what your future can be made of, if only you get your neck straight.

 

Look forward~

Cool.

Tu es aussi bon en Francais?

[Blackdrakon30 2,943]

The second paragraph was quite excellent. I like the philosophical approach you take on the topic of flaws and how you smoothly covey it with the empty glass analogy. Overall I thought you did really well on this piece, the only thing perhaps being formatting. After all, mono-grey can get fairly monotonous and makes it less enticing for the reader.

Daaaamn siggy

I can't really judge by myself but I would say so. Although French is my mother language, I do prefer writing in English.

Many thanks to you. Although I do appreciate this, the most important remains you (more generally all the people reading this) trying this out in your real life. Even if you start with small things, but overall, the idea is to look forward, look at people's bright side and be humble a little more day after day.

I may feel like writing more of these texts, by the way, in case any of you are interested.

[kmpa 830]

you closed a good clan instead of passing the torch to someone else

 

I can't read any sentence coming from you without cringing at this point, let alone use it to motivate myself.

 

 

if you want real motivation, try:

 

listening to this while running a marathon, being close to hitting the sub 3 hour time after years and years of practice. That worked.

 

 

[Mr.Sept 7]

Anyone in 2017 :p?

[sirogo 3,624]

Anyone in 2017 :P?

Haha, glad to see this topic re-live  ^_^
