Do you really want Appreciation????

I was reading my favourite book dats CELEBRATING SILENCE..& came across this article..I Just loved it!!!! This article is about Appreciation....

Here is the Article........................

When do you appreciate someone? Don't you appreciate them when they do something that is unusual, not ordinary, something that is not in their nature??

When a wicked person fails to cause problems, you appreciate them. Or when someone you think is not good, performs a good deed, you appreciate them. When a good person does something extraordinary, you appreciate them. If a child makes a cup of tea, you appreciate it, but if a mother made the same cup of tea, you are less likely to appreciate it because it is a normal act for her. In the same way, you appreciate getting a ride from someone you do not know, but you may not appreciate it from a bus driver.

In all the cases, the acts you praise are temporary, out of character, or not in the nature of that person. So when you appreciate someone for something, you imply that it is not the way they usually are..

Now the Question may arise that,"What if person wants to be appreciated?"

That means that the act is not in their nature, and that is why they want to be appreciated. If it is not coming from their nature, it is an imposed act.

So when you appreciate someone you imply that it is not their nature, that is not the way they usually are. It is a rare act or quality. Appreciation implies a sense of separateness or distance, so watch out when you appreciate someone!!!!
