Compatibility in opinion and action is the first definition you'll find in any dictionary for the word "Harmony".Why it means more to some than others is beyond me.I'm on the "more" side of it and that's why it bothers me....make any sense?
Have you come across people in your lives who just won't let it go...well,that's me..and if I let it go,I'll make sure the whole world understands(not just knows)why..I find this character flaw(yeah,that's how I see it) particularly annoying.I spend days and nights pondering over something trivial, how someone,not even so important might have misunderstood my words...and ways to fix that(make them understand the way I meant for it to be understood).Realise that it involves imagining all permutations and combinations of actions and reactions by all parties concerned.
This is so true with what I say to my parents,kids,their teachers,my neighbors,friends(especially friends) and last but not least my husband.It becomes very stressful when it involves people I care(used to care,want to care etc..etc). So what do I do these days?
My mom always said" Once you realise and admit that you are lost,it isn't very hard to find your way".I believe I have passed the hard part of it.Hope I find my way soon..
As I said in one of my previous blog entries,Is everything just a huge misunderstanding due to different communication styles.and if it that's all it is,can we learn to let it go....

"Whether the world seems a pleasant or hostile place is largely the result of the cumulative impression of seemingly insignificant daily encounters… Many of our motives, so obvious to ourselves, are never perceived by the people we talk to. Many instances of rudeness or refusal to co-operate are really caused by differences in communication styles.”-Now.isn't that a crazy idea or is it?
