LOST IDENTITIES

Its been days since my last post.Well i had nothing to blog about.yesterday i got into a discussion with a friend about how the world is full of hypocrites.That really made me wonder how all of us are losing our own identities.People often pretend to be some one they are not.We do this for various reasons.Guys do this to impress girls and vice versa.people at their workplace are turning into sycophants instead of being truly sincere.This might help them to attain few immediate goals that they are seeking but in the long run sycophants end up conflicting their own ideologies.There is so much of flattery all around.For an instance if a friend who is obese comes out wearing a dress which is a size smaller for her and asks us "how do i look?"what do we do?we tell her in a very convincing manner "dear that dress looks great on you".What we dont realise is that the same friend whom we lied so as not to hurt her feelings ends up becoming the laughing
stock of the town.People never speak the truth the way it is just to please the other person or to get something done for themselves.people are becoming highly pretentious.I have seen people visiting temples just because others around them do so and i find it very lame and dumb.I have always believed idol worship is not the real way to connect to god.People do this just because it is considered virtuous.There are as many as seven sins and to pretend that one is completely virtuous and godly without any sin is completely insane.We are born to commit sins and make mistakes that is how god intended it to be.We make mistakes so that we learn.So instead of hiding our shortcomings we should try to overcome it and who knows people around us might help us do the same.
People often try to ape celebrities or for that matter even their influential or more popular friends.people follow fashion trends like crazy.They hardly ever give it a thought to what actually looks good on them.
The best exampleof this prententious nature is when people speak with a funny accent just to sound cool.What they actually end up doing is making a fool out of themselves.Every one in this world is unique in his/her own way.
We need to maintain our idiosyncrasies.Only when people accept you for who you are ,you realise your real worth.Individuality is the word of  todays time.You would never know who loved you truly if you keep on pretending to be someone else.So just be yourself and accept people for who they really are.
