HIGH MAINTENANCE
PERSON
(Wanna meet up?!)
How difficult
can it really get to find a person to stay with for the rest of your life?
How difficult
can it really get to find a passion of yours that you will enjoy rising up to
each and every single Monday morning?
How long can
it possibly take?
How many
days or weeks or months or years or even decades can it possibly take?
Have you
found both of these, and even more?
Things that
may seem to look easy to gain may turn out to be the very opposite of what we
have thought previously in the first place.
What does
high maintenance person require?
Does high
maintenance person represent a positive figure to you?
Or does high
maintenance person represent a negative figure to you?
Do you know
a high maintenance person?
What characteristic
traits would you grant a high maintenance person?
Depending on
your answers, would you be interested in and up to meeting up with such a
person?
What would,
perhaps, the topic of your conversation be?
Would you
choose a specific place to go to?
The answers we receive
depend on the questions we're willing to ask. It's all a matter of discovering
the particular questions that will help you to access more resourceful states.
For example, if learning and progress are important to you, then a question
such as "How can I use this situation to do even better in the
future?" will be most effective in breaking a negative emotional pattern.
What would you think a
high maintenance person requires to his/her happiness?
What do you require?
What would make you
ultimately happy and satisfied and fulfilled?
Do some people have wild
and crazy dreams and some are just able to dream without the need or the steps
needed in enquiring and fulfilling your dreams?
To me,
personally, it is a very good thing to possess and have the ability to show the
world your true face, your true colours. If they like them, that is good. And if
they do not like these, that is good, too. It is of course nothing personal and
no offence taken.
Every one of
us has an ideal picture in his or her mind of how the world our him or her
should look like, like the people should behave, what the people should say or
not to say for that matter, how they should dress up, how they should eat and
what they should eat, how they should treat their children and spouses, how
they should cook and prepare their food, how they should or should not drive
their cars, what kind of transport they should use, what kind of flowers should
be growing in their beautiful and lovely gardens, what time they should walk
their dogs at, or if at all, how they should do their exercises, what sort of
exercises they should do, how they should treat their servants if they have any
and if they should have any servants for that matter in the first place also,
how they should read their books and what sort of literature they should
indulge in, what type of music should or should not be listening, what kind of
groups they should belong to if any and what sort of groups they should avoid,
what neighbourhood they should live in and when they should put their rubbish
out, what sort of thoughts they should be having on a daily basis, what type of
words they should use, what sort of friends they should go out with and what
type of friends they should never call onto, what shops they should go to and
what groceries they should bring home with them, what schools they children
should attend to and when and how to organize their children’s play dates, who
they should date and who they should not date under any circumstance, how long
they should be dating for, what sort of gifts they should be receiving and what
type of gifts they should be giving away, what colours they should be their
favourite, where they should go on their honeymoons, who they should marry to, how
many children they should have if any or if they should remain single for life,
what parties and conferences they should attend to, what seminars they should
go to and with whom, what countries they should visit and what else they should
or should not be bringing along with them, what kind of visitors they should be
having over, what kind of wine they should be drinking if any for that matter,
what their relationships should look like and feel like, what they should be
writing about in their journals if anything at all for that matter, where they
should go on their field trips, what currency they should or should not be
paying, what water they should or should not be drinking, what their chats and
phone calls and messages and talks and speeches should be all about, with whom
they should have a meaningful and stimulation conversation, what they should be
putting in their statuses, etc.
This list
could be very, very long if not unlimited. The more people there are, the more
challenging it can obviously get! And we human beings have that special need to
complicate things and make it bigger and huge and more massive that it is
really looking like in a real world.
What do we
do this to ourselves and to those around us and to the world in general?
This must be
a paradox. Paradox about us and learning the lessons and teaching this to
others if needed and if necessary!
Do we judge
people?!
Every person
we meet is our mirror in one way or the other. What do you like in particular
about this person? What do you not like in particular about his very person?
Have
you learnt to embrace and love and appreciate the very same things about
yourself?
