Call It Truce

There are times in one’s life when one completely loses one’s cool and inner peace
One’s anger may be out of proportion in terms of the context that has had a trigger
One may feel that one should never again maintain any further contact in future
One may even feel as to how could one ever relate with the individual in the past?

There are many such situations that happens over experiences in one’s life time
There are some that are largely very superficial that gets blown out of proportion
The primary cause largely is ego-driven and many of us fail to control our emotion
These are simple to resolve and manage and with maturity can find a ready solution

There are situations that happens when one encounters conflict in value management
There are individuals who exhibit behaviour that make you want to ensure detachment
These are times where you need to demonstrate clarity to ensure you get out of predicament
These are a bit complex to resolve and tests your conscience when you have high attachment

There are times when for trivial reasons and issues people end up catching other’s neck
There are situations that people indulge in power struggles and rather end up in a wreck
These when viewed with objectivity and maturity one can easily establish camaraderie
These are times when one can collaborate and constructively create positive memories

There are times when you have had a difficult day at your work place and you come home
You come home with expectations but are rather greeted by a closed door and empty home
You simply blow-up without even making time to understand where everyone have gone
Your temper tantrums when you meet them results in you having to eventually atone

There are times when you have fixed up an important meeting at a certain time and hour
The person calls up and apologizes for the delay that in turn makes you angry and sour
You may never have anticipated that the person may have helped a victim find a cure
Your negative mind only thinks that others are at fault and their attitude is sadly very poor

There are times when you may have set some goals and have defined some timelines
There may be situations when you may not have been able to have your priorities align
There may be times when consciously though you may not have been able to draw the line
There may be times when you may be tough on yourself and view your actions as a crime

There are times when one needs to call it truce either with self, individuals or situations
There are times when one needs to accept reality as it presents itself without any condition
There are times when one needs to give up any established bias and all preconceived notions
That is when wisdom dawns, you live in the moment and demonstrate love for all creations!

One needs to appreciate that life is short and many a time it may be perceived to be chaos
There is no sense in carrying forward grudges that may at sometime have looked like loss
There is no sense in trying to undermine the other and highlight the other person vital flaws
There is no sense in holding on to sad memories of past and trying to explore the root cause

It is better to let bygones be bygones rather than trying to want to have the final say
One never claim with certainty in this world the person who is destined to live another day
One can only say with guarantee amidst this uncertainty that no one can extend their stay
It is better to embrace love, peace and cheer and share positive energy as you live every day!

I understand the points presented here but it's easier said than done. The complex emotions that individuals go through make it difficult to "Call it truce".

Calling truce requires a level of maturity on part of individuals to bring in a philosophy of "Forget and Forgive". Where that does not exist from both the parties, an effort to call a truce only opens up new wounds.

There are certain relationships that are permanently damaged and from a practical consideration it is best to leave them at that.

It makes sense what you have said. One may even try from one's side but the challenge is when the same may not get reciprocated. In this hyper-active and overtly sensitive world when it comes to personal criticism one may not like finger pointing. How much patience should a person demonstrate.

I don't know whether Gandhigiri will succeed, though Bollywood generates commercial success.

It is a worthy objective to be attained but will come at a price that one should be conscious of and not feel short-changed in the future.
