There are two kind of human beings on earth. One- who just live as humans, enjoying the perks God bestowed on our species. And two- who take the matter way too seriously and think of it as their responsibility to act as a higher being.
Mistakes still happen by both. Just the difference being, one carries on whereas other one tries to evaluate, analyse and evolve.
When you chose to be the second kind, the path gets twisted. The worst enemies you see are the first kinds.
It is hard to see how being a human being, it is not considered by them to not respect the opportunity. You think every human, has in him to act as one. So.... So you try to make them understand and in the process disturb their perfect harmony.
You are all righteous with your concept of higher being behaviour- respecting nature, protecting your loved ones, growing with the nexgen, always trying ways to self improvement and all the wacky ideas you think of as "higher being code of conduct". But while thinking all this, you in your perfect imperfection try to interfere with other's vision of themselves. You take it on yourself to make the world around you, not just better but better than the best. You reason it out as you cannot see wrong happenings in front of you and not attempting to improve it. And so you forget the fact that you cannot and should not chalk out everyone's path which would get synonymous with you being dictator. And you are ultimately not being the second type that you initially set out to be.
When Gandhiji said, Be the change you want to see in the world, he did not mean to later go and by any possible means change the world yourselves. So here is a little addition to his original saying just for these second type enthusiasts to go easy -
Be the change, you want to see in the world, then...
Be patient and give way for the world to change,
If it does not happen overnight,
Wait for a fortnight,
If not still...
Just forget it and concentrate on your personal journey.
