Is it normal to want everyone to get on or am I dreamer?

Question

I've found myself trying to get people to get on but sometimes its very draining for me, there are people I do not like particulary, but I still have Courtesy and try to be civil with them, what makes it hard is when hatred is so intense that it makes life miserable. Surely what do you think should be a common ground for a community with different perspective that is making life worse than it already is.?

Answer 1

Everybody should dream, good things come from dreams. You are not wrong to want people to get on together, however, you should not look on it as your responsibility. Take time for yourself, relax, let the world go by, you can't stop it. If we all do a little, life goes better. Just remember no one can do it all, everybody has to make their contribution to make it work. If there are those who won't do their bit, leave them to it. Pick your friends carefully.

Answer 2

You cant control those around you. All you can do is lead by example. Different people who care for you will share you in common. This might seem small but you might inspire someone to do the same, and so on, and so on...

Don't take responsibility for the hate around you...you will end up as miserable as the rest which wont help anything anyways...

Answer 3

Yes, it's normal, but yes, you're also a dreamer. But, there's nothing wrong with having a dream. Just don't worry about it so much that it stresses you out.

"You must be the change you wish to see in the world." - Mahatma Gandhi

I believe this quote means that we must do what we can ourselves because we can't and shouldn't try to control the rest of the world.

Accoring the a well used Myers Briggs Personality assesment test, there are 16 basic personality types, and I think it is our job to learn who we are and how to interact or even avoid some if necessary so we don't hurt each other.

Answer 5

This is one of my favorite quotes from one of my favorite ladies...

People are often unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered; Forgive them anyway. If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives; Be kind anyway. If you are successful you will win some false friends and true enemies; Succeed anyway. If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you; Be honest and frank anyway. What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight; Build anyway. If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous; Be happy anyway. The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow; Do good anyway. Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough; Give the world the best you've got anyway You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God; It was never between you and them anyway.
--Mother Teresa

Answer 6

Yes!
You're not a freak.
Keep it up.
Don't worry if others don't react well- that's their problem!-

And for your own sake, don't be too sensitive to their moods or reactions.
Accept the way they are.
Be the way you are, and you might inspire them.

A way of 'rising above' petty tensions can be to pray for that person/ those people.
Ask their Guardian Angel to help them........Angels are great allies!

good luck-sw
