Human Nature... So Strange!

It has been many years I am interacting with people. School days full of admiring vastness of planet earth its amazing facts. The teachers wondering how they knew so much.
College days some elation, some fear, new language, new people, new study atmosphere, hostel difficulties, pining of home, in all total a whole new plethora.

Came graduation a bit focused me with some increased confidence. Friends, friends, and more friends. Hostel seemed second home.

MSc sort of mixed feelings. Happy days are ending. After that, no study, no hostel, what to do next? Leaving old and gold friends. leaving my dear college.

Try job... try job... No try agin... and and and Gotchha!!!

Again new place, new people, new state, new challenges.

My life is going in a merry go round, What makes the difference is every time my co-player is somebody new.

I met so many people in these years outside home. Some bad, some good, sometimes they helped, sometimes they ignored, and sometimes they stuck in back.

Every time I encountered something negative or deconstructive, I asked myself how to recognize human nature? How do I know a person is good or bad? May be I am sitting, talking, laughing with them for years but comes a moment I stumble into something that shows me their true color.

You will come to know that some people hate you 'coz you seem always cheerful, you try to be straight with every one, and somebody is jealous for the fact that you get good marks in the exams or you are successful. Some are making fun of you at back for only and only reason that you are from a different state. Yet how serene and friendly they seem in front of you. So great is God's creation.

May be after that also I sit with them, talk and laugh as usual but its like smiling with teeth not from heart. Some chords break definitely and for the umpteenth time I wonder about human nature. It is so strange that absolutely no pattern exists.

Yet again I stumble into someone the next day and try to gauge his/er personality. This is also part of the human nature, I believe.
