No One Likes Me In This World.Aristotle Advice To Alexnder. Alexander the great.
You have done 1000 good deeds, but if you failed to do 1001 good deeds, then this world will start cursing you.
Alexander is the son of Philip-2 (father) and Olympias (mother). His father and mother were of unique family background (like caste, race).
Their marriage is like Mixed marriage. Because of this reason, many Greek people believed, he was not the perfect heir of a Greek king.
Many hated alexander and criticized him, even at his small age. Alexander was a small boy. He could not tolerate these happenings around him. Nobody likes him as they believed, he was not a correct heir to their kingdom.
One day they gathered many people in a palace. In front of them, alexander was insulted badly. He couldn’t able to tolerate it. He went out of the kingdom along with his brother and mother.
The king likes his son alexander very much. He continuously advised and requested him to return to their kingdom. But he refused to return. He lived in a lonely place along with his mother and brother.
Alexander met Aristotle. Everyone knew Aristotle was the guru for alexander. Aristotle asked him, “why you left the kingdom?”
Alexander told, ” people in the kingdom don’t like me, then for what reason I have to be there..”
[At the age of 13, alexander reacted like a normal teenager]
Aristotle decided to teach him a lesson practically otherwise that small boy cannot understand the nature of this world and people.
Aristotle disguised alexander in a distinct look and asked him to come along with him to his friend’s house function.
Aristotle asked his friend to bring the best food among the all in that place. His friend gave him a new dish made of fresh fig fruit.
Aristotle and alexander ate, and both liked the food very much. The food was delicious and yummy.
Aristotle gave Alexander a full plate with that dish and asked him to deliver all the fruits to everyone. Alexander has to meet his teacher after delivering it to everyone.
Some people liked the dish and ate. Some don’t like the dish. Some people ate the dish, and they were disappointed in that dish.
Alexander went to Aristotle with the empty plate.
Aristotle asked, “Does everyone liked the dish?”
Alexander: No, some don’t like the dish.
Aristotle: How it is possible? We two liked the dish, how come others don’t like the dish? Is this dish was bad? Or people have loosed their tongues? [in anger].
Alexander: [politely] Everyone has a distinct taste and perception. We cannot judge the nature of the dish from people’s taste and perception. Some people may have a foul taste and perception.
Aristotle held alexander’s hand and said, “Likewise, there are some people who love us and some people who hate us. They hate you because of the origin of your birth, that’s not your fault. They have a bad perception and view. Your nation and kingdom are waiting for you, so come along with me to the kingdom.”
People who respect us may respect us and people who detractor we may detract us. Don’t consider it, come along with me.
Alexander decided to continue his life in the kingdom.
After the lesson got from His teacher Aristotle, everyone knew, he has won and ruled almost half of the country on the world map.
People who read this may be hated based on caste, race, structure, etc. Take bold decisions. You don’t have to be changed for it, change is to be done by them, not by you.
Aristotle cannot be there in everyone’s life.
