Last few days, an old friend said something to me... “Don’t be over confident! You can’t automatically consider yourself as an important person, as an expected person, as the one is needed by everyone!” Hahayy… Yeah, he’s right!! Most of us considering ourself as an important person, as an expected person, even as the only righteous!! But… have we ever been thinking about it carefully? Have we ever been thinking about ourself honestly?
‘Till our last breath and our last heartbeat, we can’t stop learning about life, and also learning about everything in life… We can’t underestimate others and “close our ears” listening to them… because everyone can be “HIS channel” to remind us, to show our mistake, and also to let us know our capability, so that we give thank to God who gives us strength, gives us intelligence… Based on my old friend’s statement, don’t be over confident… We could have an excellent poin in our lesson/assignment, we could do anything that (always) make others proud of us, we could consider our hard-working as the best we can do and no one can do “the better one”, we could say that no others can do the same thing as we do, etc, but don’t we remember exactly that all of those are God’s gift………….??!! What’s the purpose of underestimating others; all we have are God’s kindness!!!
Don’t be over confident…
