We are at the mercy of each other

Introduction

A simple idea, one that I am guilty of not always remembering, I thought i will share with you.

I usually write blog posts, and for a while wanted to consider video blogging. You will notice sound issues and camera shakiness of a novice.

But, I hope you managed to look past them and consider the content. Please do leave your feedback, but i do request you to be kind and constructive in your feedback.

Afterall, I am at the mercy of you

hi my name is nimesh today instead of

2
00:00:03,439 –> 00:00:08,960
writing a blog post i thought i’ll do

3
00:00:05,440 –> 00:00:13,280
a youtube video um the topic

4
00:00:08,960 –> 00:00:15,759
is we are all at the mercy of each other

5
00:00:13,280 –> 00:00:16,880
it dawned on me a couple of days ago how

6
00:00:15,759 –> 00:00:20,160
we as human beings

7
00:00:16,880 –> 00:00:24,160
are always always always at the mercy of

8
00:00:20,160 –> 00:00:27,279
another human being from childbirth we

9
00:00:24,160 –> 00:00:28,480
rely on another human being to provide

10
00:00:27,279 –> 00:00:31,840
for us

11
00:00:28,480 –> 00:00:33,760
and as grown-ups unless we we’ve

12
00:00:31,840 –> 00:00:35,600
gone up in the himalayas or somewhere

13
00:00:33,760 –> 00:00:38,320
being a a

14
00:00:35,600 –> 00:00:40,640
spiritual seeker living on their own uh

15
00:00:38,320 –> 00:00:44,000
with no human interaction

16
00:00:40,640 –> 00:00:47,039
uh being hermit uh generally

17
00:00:44,000 –> 00:00:48,480
speaking majority of us have to rely on

18
00:00:47,039 –> 00:00:51,440
one another

19
00:00:48,480 –> 00:00:52,719
so this this means that we constantly

20
00:00:51,440 –> 00:00:55,600
need to consider

21
00:00:52,719 –> 00:00:56,960
how we think of ourselves as well as how

22
00:00:55,600 –> 00:01:00,079
others think of us

23
00:00:56,960 –> 00:01:01,840
and our behavior sometimes it can go

24
00:01:00,079 –> 00:01:04,239
into extremes and i am

25
00:01:01,840 –> 00:01:05,119
definitely guilty for going into those

26
00:01:04,239 –> 00:01:08,240
extremes

27
00:01:05,119 –> 00:01:10,880
and that can come up as a

28
00:01:08,240 –> 00:01:12,080
confidence uh lack of confidence or

29
00:01:10,880 –> 00:01:15,280
confidence

30
00:01:12,080 –> 00:01:17,759
but i was thinking that

31
00:01:15,280 –> 00:01:18,880
as human beings like if even if i

32
00:01:17,759 –> 00:01:22,479
consider someone

33
00:01:18,880 –> 00:01:25,680
who is powerful or someone who is

34
00:01:22,479 –> 00:01:28,000
really wealthy let’s take the wealthy

35
00:01:25,680 –> 00:01:30,640
person example because it’s it’s easier

36
00:01:28,000 –> 00:01:31,200
uh money is an issue these days for most

37
00:01:30,640 –> 00:01:33,759
people with

38
00:01:31,200 –> 00:01:36,079
whether you have it or not it’s an issue

39
00:01:33,759 –> 00:01:38,079
and we it and it’s a necessity

40
00:01:36,079 –> 00:01:40,159
so if we take the world’s wealthiest

41
00:01:38,079 –> 00:01:43,439
person and let’s imagine

42
00:01:40,159 –> 00:01:46,000
that people decide that

43
00:01:43,439 –> 00:01:48,320
they are not going to sell to him they

44
00:01:46,000 –> 00:01:50,479
are not going to go to

45
00:01:48,320 –> 00:01:52,240
their house they are not going to go to

46
00:01:50,479 –> 00:01:55,520
their

47
00:01:52,240 –> 00:01:56,079
provide for their needs for argument’s

48
00:01:55,520 –> 00:01:58,320
sake

49
00:01:56,079 –> 00:02:00,079
let’s say let’s say the world’s

50
00:01:58,320 –> 00:02:01,840
wealthiest person is

51
00:02:00,079 –> 00:02:04,399
all of a sudden the world all of a

52
00:02:01,840 –> 00:02:08,879
sudden got together and decided

53
00:02:04,399 –> 00:02:10,800
we don’t like you that person is going

54
00:02:08,879 –> 00:02:11,360
to become the loneliest person on planet

55
00:02:10,800 –> 00:02:14,319
earth

56
00:02:11,360 –> 00:02:15,840
with a lot of money with no meaning with

57
00:02:14,319 –> 00:02:19,360
nobody

58
00:02:15,840 –> 00:02:22,800
so the example i took was that we

59
00:02:19,360 –> 00:02:23,440
most of us think fame and weld and a lot

60
00:02:22,800 –> 00:02:26,720
of things

61
00:02:23,440 –> 00:02:27,120
uh sort out the problems and i’m one to

62
00:02:26,720 –> 00:02:30,080
say

63
00:02:27,120 –> 00:02:32,160
you know if i win a lotto tomorrow a

64
00:02:30,080 –> 00:02:34,879
considerable portion of some of the

65
00:02:32,160 –> 00:02:35,760
immediate issues are going to go away

66
00:02:34,879 –> 00:02:38,800
but

67
00:02:35,760 –> 00:02:41,120
if i don’t consider uh

68
00:02:38,800 –> 00:02:42,400
that when i’m interacting with another

69
00:02:41,120 –> 00:02:45,440
person

70
00:02:42,400 –> 00:02:46,640
they are at the mercy of my words my

71
00:02:45,440 –> 00:02:48,879
behavior

72
00:02:46,640 –> 00:02:50,800
how i treat them the same way i am at

73
00:02:48,879 –> 00:02:52,879
the mercy of their words

74
00:02:50,800 –> 00:02:54,640
their behavior and what what their how

75
00:02:52,879 –> 00:02:58,159
they respond

76
00:02:54,640 –> 00:03:01,200
um and we can we can pretend to be tough

77
00:02:58,159 –> 00:03:04,480
and go we shouldn’t be considering

78
00:03:01,200 –> 00:03:07,760
other people’s opinions of you but

79
00:03:04,480 –> 00:03:10,239
imagine a a four-year-old

80
00:03:07,760 –> 00:03:11,120
or a three-year-old that three-year-old

81
00:03:10,239 –> 00:03:14,640
grew up

82
00:03:11,120 –> 00:03:15,440
considering the opinion of others that’s

83
00:03:14,640 –> 00:03:18,159
how

84
00:03:15,440 –> 00:03:19,040
that’s how we have oh you know they’re

85
00:03:18,159 –> 00:03:20,959
they are very

86
00:03:19,040 –> 00:03:23,040
well brought up children or all these

87
00:03:20,959 –> 00:03:24,799
remarks come from

88
00:03:23,040 –> 00:03:27,360
because of the fact that they considered

89
00:03:24,799 –> 00:03:29,120
all the time it can go into extremes i

90
00:03:27,360 –> 00:03:33,040
understand but it was

91
00:03:29,120 –> 00:03:36,080
