Have you ever wondered what to do to be a good and happy person? I do this very often. Lately I saw this image:
Sounds great, right? But what about reality? Is it that easy in real life? I don't think so. For example "worry less". There are situations that make us sad and we just cannot forget about them and problems that we have to solve but it's hard so why we should be happy? You failed very important exam- ok, nevermind, just be happy! Your boyfriend broke up with you- just keep smiling. No, no, no. It doesn't work! I think that we cannot be happy if we aren't good people. Now next question appears: how to be a good person? It is said that we should talk less and listen more and I strongly agree with it because everyone need somebody who listens to them and who can give advice. My friends very often tell me about their problem asking for advice or just tell about last date and so on and I listen to them patiently because I know how hard it is to keep all your emotions inside. Sometimes you don't even expect advice, you only want to tell somebody about something. There are nights when I cannot sleep because I think about how to help my closest people. However, sometimes we also talk to somebody about something important and then the rule "less talk and listen more" disappears. Does the receipe for being good person even exist? What do you think about it?
