DO UNTO OTHERS WHAT YOU WANT OTHERS TO DO UNTO YOU
Woke up in the morning and this phrase kept coming into my head. I really do not know why BUT I guess that I could perfectly relate to the sentence - after what happened over the course of a few days.
1) IF you do not want people to make fun of you, don't make fun of others
This is something that sounds so simple, but yet is really so hard to fulfill. This is something that many would be guilty of, but yet would not readily admit it at any time of their life. I say - Do not think that only you have a temper, cos I have one too - and a BIG one. Why do people comment about you is because you have also constantly comment about others as well. The mirror reflects - so you better reflect too!
2) Do not behave the way that you do not want people to behave to you
When you sulk at others, how do you expect others to smile at you? Similarly, if you people with a negative attitude, how do you expect others to positively treat you?
Many people complain about poor attitude, poor service - but how did, or what triggers the said behaviour?
I was at Jurong Point food court at the "Chinatown Herbal Soup" stall and was waiting in line to order food from the said. Standing in front of me was a Taiwanese/PRC woman in her 40s who was pushing a children stroller.
a) Her stroller was parking 'illegaly' and blocking people's path of passage; b) She was impatient, rude and asserting her authority as a customer.
This incur the wrath of the auntie who was serving her and after the former repeated for the 5th time that she wanted rice, the auntie lose control and became a little aggresive. A fracas ensued and like in their parliamentary debates, the Taiwanese girl had the last say.
*This post is meant to use examples (real-life) to illustrate and also to let us know about the meaning and application of the phrase that was bugging my mind since I wake up till now*
