You meet many people every day, people in your house, people in the neighbourhood, people in the market, people at the work place...... How these people behave with you? Do they accept you as you are or they want you to change according to their likes and dislikes.
Also tell how you accept people?

Hi Kishusia! Not all people accept you for what you are. Even if it's a family member, a neighbor or a friend. But I don't compromise myself and pretend to be someone else. If I see they don't accept me for what I am. I just keep my distance or avoid them. It's also because, I accept people for what they are. (^^,)

People are people. You can't expect people not to expect from other people. The moment a person meets someone he or she starts expecting from that person. This expectation can be anything. People can only try not to expect from other people, but to accept them as they are. In this, some people succeed and some don't, and some do not want to.
I try to accept people as they are. This avoids any conflict. This also keeps my mind free of any tension. But there are people with whom I have not been able to succeed. I avoid them as their mere presence creates tension.
Regarding people accepting me as I am, is a real problem. Very few people I have met who will accept me as I am. Most of them will like to behave as they expect me to behave. Some of them I avoid meeting. Some I try to accomodate. About some I do not bother.
People are people. Some give you peace of mind. Some give you tension. Some like you. Some don't like you. Some even hate you. Accept them as they are.

Yes people are people you cannot change them but if you want to be alongwith them you have to change yourself.
But remember initially if you change little bit and off course with your own way.people will love you and then they will change as you like.Some smartness is required.

People, these days, normally do not accept you as you are. They are quick in forming an opinion about you and give their judgment. They believe that it is your duty to come to their expectations and standards. They want others to adjust with them but they are not ready to adjust themselves to your needs and expectations.
Of course you meet some nice people also who accept you as you are. These people make life a pleasant experience.
