The Person We Should Say

Lessons from those who let us down

By Rohitha LankaPublished about a year ago • 1 min read

.. ''Thank you'' ..

Someone .. who doesn't care about us

He is teaching us..

To live.. without him

Someone .. who is bored with us

He is teaching us..

To give ourselves.. more time than we give him

Someone .. who looks at us negatively

He is teaching us that..

Humans don’t look at each other.. at the real person

But judge randomly.. Just look at each other superficially

Someone .. makes us disappointed

He is teaching us that..

Don’t expect anything.. from anyone

Someone .. hurts us behind our back

He is teaching us that..

Don't trust anyone indiscriminately

Take time.. Look for a long time

Someone .. forgets our kindness

He is teaching us that..

Don't give too much.. to people who are not worthy

Someone .. who has changed

He is teaching us..

To start acting.. Be valuable without caring about him

Someone .. who doesn't love us

He is teaching us ..

To know .. "Love yourself"
