All the time at work I am called Naive. Usually I just smile and get back to my job at hand. Except for a couple of weeks ago. My coworker was listening how I was talking to a costumer and after I was done she just said "wow, I didn't realize you were that naive."
I dont know why, but this time it hurt. I went home and talked to my mom, I told her everything and what I was feeling. I asked if I am naive and am just not smart. she then told me something.
My Auntie Shania was talking about the same thing and was confronted and told that her and her family are naive and are not living in the real world. she and said something like this;
I am not naive. I know excactly what is in this world and so do my husband and children. Instead of living in the realistic world I prefer to live in a Idealistic one.
I would like to say, I am not naive. I know what is out there and have probably seen and experienced a lot more then people know. I understand how the world works and do not ignore what is in the world.
I do however chose to live in a idealistic world, in a world that I like and prefer! I like looking for the best in people before I hear the bad, I like looking for the beauty in the world before the garbage.
Sometimes this feels as if Im living in a disney movie, But lets be honest, who doesn't want to live in a disney movie?
George Albert Smith the eighth Prophet of The Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter Day Saints, lived by resolutions that he called "his creed", 11 ideals. one of which says
“I would not seek to force people to live up to my ideals but rather love them into doing the thing that is right.
I would rather have love in my heart for a person that is doing the right, then forcing them to change and judging for the things they have done. I say this for certain people and the world.
Would you rather live in a Realistic world? or an Idealistic one?
Thank you for reading.
have a magical day!
