Do you know what is saddest thing that could
happen to you right now? Being compared to someone else negatively. For
example: “You’re like the younger version of Hitler” I know I gave a bad
example but it could really hurt someone. And it could affect her for the rest
of her life. A simple joke or comment may turn someone else’s world upside
down. What I am trying to say is comparing someone to something or someone else
is a big no-no especially if you knew it could hurt him or her.
Comparing one person to the other for me means
that you are defining someone’s personality. And you should not do that because
we have to admit that we do not know everyone else even if you spent your whole
life with them. Spending your whole life with someone else does not mean you
already know him or her. No one knows anybody. Getting to know someone does not
stop, it is a continuous process that is why we have a phrase “You continuously
amaze me”.
I wrote about this topic today because I got
compared to someone else today. And it got me really bad that I started to cry
and then send messages to my friends and finally writing this article down. I
really do hate being compared to someone especially if the one who compares me to another does
not even know me very well. I believed that we are all unique in all aspects
whether it is about our looks, personality, the way we sleep, the way we eat a
banana, the way we sang Katy Perry’s firework. We are all different. That’s why
I got really hurt when this thing happened to me today. I know I might have
said some few words. But I don’t think that I deserve to be compared so poorly
to another.
After drying my tears, I said to myself “They
are just another hurdles in your life, don’t let them stop you.” After all you
alone know yourself more than anyone else. Don’t let them define you.
