"I told you. You should just convert to our religion. That's because it is the truth! Yours is just a false patriotism and have no basis at all."
Harshly, he answered my response earlier. I'm tired of it. Every now and then, he keeps on pushing his belief on me and wanting me to do the same acknowledgement like what he is doing. I definitely hate this side of him. I really don't want to talk when his attitude turns out this way.
Instead of giving him the answer that he wants just to end our conversation or explaining myself again just to make sure he understand, even if I know that he won't, I stand and walk away from him.
"I'm done for the day. Bye." Says I to him before finally disappearing on his sight.
He knows me. And I know that he will realize that he has gone too far. He should realize that things always don't go the way you want it to. Every people has different ways of thinking. They go on different paths they wanted to take. They failed on their decisions, and it is not always a win-win situation. Everyday is a battle of what to believe and why you should believe it, along with those external reasons and signs that the one you are making or believing is not right at all. It will just depend on the person itself how he can handle every criticism, every comment he will hear and stand up on it.
"I told you, you are doing it wrong. You should handle it this way. How many times do I have to teach you anyway?"
I glance at the students on the table I passed seconds ago, looks like they are studying for an exam. One student gets irritated teaching the other three how a certain problem will be solve. I started walking again while continuously hearing the arguments all of them are making.
Well, isn't it good? Helping others using the strength you have on your own. If you are so good on that specific thing, one day you will end up gaining on it. Whether you will use it for your own good or waste it is your decision. It is how you feel about it. Having fun with all the technicalities, familiarizing every bit of information, specializing the skills you wanted, it is all on you. It is okay to brag on something you already have, as long as you did everything, you made all the efforts, you failed but stand again and again. But if it is just a blind belief, with no solid proof, instead consist of only theory and accusations, you should just shut up and let the others go their own way. You should just watch them do the things their way, and support the decisions they believe is right. It is not being a hypocrite; it is being respectful.
I sighed. I feel like he is no good at all. He won't understand me. It is going to be a circle of fights, beliefs, priorities, and principles. I'm exhausted. I don't like geeking out on something. What I want is a long deep conversation with a lot of understanding, an ear ready to listen, and a heart open for all discussions to be made. I guess, he is not the one.
