To Learn and to Unlearn (What does it take?)

It's interesting and really a feel good thing to see people complimenting others in this place and others responding the same way too. It's really a virtue to do so. Really a virtue!! And I realize the lack of complimenting others in us. Many people among us have a hard time in doing so. Else why can we not compliment? Why do we tend to be so "tough" with words? Why is it so tough to say some good words? And if we are complimenting it's never whole-hearted, but some say just for the sake of saying? Why?? What does it take for us to compliment others and while getting some compliments- to compliment back. Is it just the lack of learning?? Because we never learnt so! Because we never knew the other person is as beautiful, is as amazing and they know a lot more things than us and we are not only the ones. Or is it because while growing up we have always been thought "mediocre" or "useless" or some such sorts that all we know is to see the shortcomings in the other even while they have immense goodness in them.

If we learnt this way, why can we not "unlearn" some wrong in us. Or we never feel/know it's wrong anyways because we always grew up this way. 

One of those days I want to word my thoughts. Those #Crude thoughts. 

More to say but well, until next time.

Metta!
