Justify less – Life becomes simpler and LIVABLE

I have realized that the more I try to justify, I am burdening my mind and brain for those things that are not so important.  The only person you need to justify your feelings and emotions is YOU. 

Why is it that we want to justify why we did something or why we reacted in a particular manner which was not kind of “acceptable”.  Yes, things happen but it does not mean that you need to explain things to one and all.

Speaking to someone about your inner feelings and thoughts is different from that of justifying.  When you justify, it is like you are trying to gain sympathy or you could call trying to explain that what you did is right.  There may be times when we may not be right, but that’s fine. 

We get tired at the end of the day and try to justify to our kids and family about how tired we are and how it is not your nature to get tired. We lose a game or a match and justify why we could not win it. We forget something important and try to justify why is it that we forgot. Simply accepting the fact that YES I TOO CAN MAKE MISTAKES makes things simpler and less stressful.

At times, when you are not fine and are feeling down or low, accept it, yes you can say it, but try and stop justifying. As long as you do not express and explain it, the other person is not even going to be aware of it and maybe he or she is not even interested in knowing it. So why waste your energy trying to justify.

People try and justify their job, work profile, finances, kids and so on.  There may be couples who may not be keen to have kids or there may be someone who does not want to do a full time job.  The choice is theirs and there is no need for them to justify it to the world outside.  It is their CHOICE completely.  Let’s allow people to be themselves as then you will be able to live life the way you want to or else your life will be wasted simply explaining things to others and waiting for their acceptance and approval.

So let’s destress, justify less and stop explaining things to the outside world.  Let’s be happy in our OWN LITTLE WORLD by doing things we like, eating things we want to once in a while, laughing aloud, taking a break once in a while ….. and of course also lazing around.

Signing off for now!!

Luv u All
