Embarrassing Situations and how they Make Happy - 6 Jan 10

Suraj the Clown

I was writing about time. Yesterday I said that in deep emotions like sadness it seems that this feeling will never go away. It is not only with sadness and anger like this. It also happens with embarrassment. It is funny how situations in which someone is feeling embarrassed are the most funny situations to those around!

Did you every come into an embarrassing situation? Did you ever act like a fool in public, couldn’t hold air back in an office meeting, had the zipper open during an important speech or accidently had your skirt fly up in a Marylin-like manner? And now tell me, especially if that was a very public incident, didn’t you think that you would never be able to go in front of people again? Didn’t you wish the ground would open up and swallow you? Okay and as the first moments after this event were passing, didn’t you stand there with the head shining in bright red thinking that these moments will never pass? And guess what: they did!

Depending on your character the embarrassment subsided fast or slowly and you are not thinking of this moment anymore each time when you meet those people. And if you decide to share your story with others you will see, the more embarrassing it was, the more happy you make your surroundings!

If you would like to share a laugh with the readers, you are welcome to send your most embarrassing story to me by email ([email protected]) and I will maybe share some stories in the diary in the next days!

It's funny... some people think they always do embarrassing things, and other people think they never do embarrassing things. I guess it just depends on your perspective and how shameful you feel about doing stupid things. As long as you can laugh at yourself, then it's not so bad! Don't take everything so seriously and it can all be quite funny instead of embarrassing.

Words of Wisdom

  • Yoga

    How much would Patanjali, the author of the Yoga Sutras 3000 years ago, charge you for becoming his franchisee and using his name and Sutras?

    Source
  • Sex

    You can often hear someone say after their first night ‘It was really a good night, I had wonderful sex’. This doesn\'t mean they did anything special. It is amazing because sex itself is such a great thing. It is not the quality of the woman and the man, it is the quality of sex itself.

    Source
  • Healing

    Give time the chance to heal your sorrows, wounds and pain!

    Source
  • God

    Don’t seek God in religious icons or figures. God is love and lives in our heart. If you, in a prayer or mantra, mention the name Jesus, Ram or also Hanuman, it doesn’t mean that you specify a religion you are praying to. You have God in your heart, no matter which name you say with your tongue.

    Source
  • Gurus

    Not rarely you can see that yoga or meditation gurus mix two common practices and call it their own, put a patent on it and then sell it.

    Source
  • Religion

    We need to stop religion from spreading the superstition that there could be a ghost or spirit possessing a person.

    Source
  • Scriptures

    Scriptures - squeeze them and you will see blood dripping out of them!

    Source
  • God

    I won’t have a problem with your god if he makes clear that poverty, hunger, war and rape is not happening by his wish.

    Source
  • Negativity

    Negative people are not bothered by negativity because they are already full of negativity. Negativity more strongly affects positive people, trying to make them negative, too.

    Source
  • Religion

    Where poverty is widespread, people believe more in religions. They are uneducated but they have hopes and dreams, based on God. Some gurus take advantage of their dreams and suck the little money that they have out of them. Let’s spread education so that they can really live their dreams.

    Source
  • Freedom

    I want to give the one I love full control over me. Only then I will feel full freedom because I don’t even have to think for myself.

    Source
  • Religion

    Religion is the root problem of sex crimes against women.

    Source
  • Expectations

    Among friends, in relationships or among family members you should be able to tell the other one whenever you feel that an expectation was not fulfilled.

    Source
  • Meditation

    Can you measure someone's level of consciousness by the length of his meditation?

    Source
  • Parenting

    Housewives - you are not worth less! Babies need their Mothers!

    Source
  • Sects

    Sects go to extremes - Either lots of sex or no sex at all!

    Source
  • Positivity

    A positive attitude from your side will also change your surroundings.

    Source
  • Closeness

    The base for strengthening an emotional connection is physical closeness. For any close emotional relation you need to be close physically.

    Source
  • Identity

    People often have different faces, for work, for home, for friends and so on. That makes it difficult for you and others to understand you. Just be who you are!

    Source
  • Religion

    Religious belief and superstition can hurt the feelings of your friends.
