Some inspirational quotes that are actually stupid
We all love quotes. But some of them are really stupid. Read along.
1/ Do what you love. Love what you do.
If you love what you do, you are already doing something that you love which just makes the second line unnecessary.
2/ Go for the moon, if you miss, atleast you'll land on the stars.
It basically implies that even if you don't get what you worked for you should be content with a lower version of it.
Suppose someone wants to become an international football player. He works day and night for it. And at last gets a job as a football coach for college team.
Would he be content?
Of course not!
3/ Live as if its your last day.
This one is very illogical.
If we follow this quote and live everyday having fun and not even thinking about the upcoming days, what difference would be between us and other animals?
Saving money, buying a house would be pointless.
It would make us selfish.
Imagine yourself to work only to spend all that money on yourself by having fun, travelling and buying unimportant stuff for yourself just because it makes you happy. It is fine as long as you are on your own.
But when you have a family to look after, and you act according to the quote, it will ruin your relationship with them.
4/ Love means never having to say you're sorry.
Sometimes things we do can hurt your loved ones and you wouldn't even know about it.
Maybe you raised your voice to much. Maybe you said something that you shouldn't have said.
In such cases, apologising is the only way to save a relationship.
Sorry and thank you are two pillars that sustain every relationship.
A wise and humorous post! Thanks for sharing :)
Although I always interpreted 'Go for the moon, if you miss, atleast you'll land on the stars.' a bit differently... To me the stars seem like a nicer place! (Minus the dying before even getting close part). But isn't a star a nicer place to be than the moon?! Maybe it's just me haha.
Its all about perspective. Both of us are not wrong in any way, we only percieve things differently.
Definitely! (I didn't mean to make it sound like you were wrong if I did) that's one of the coolest parts about quotes like these!
Hi @rahul.stan
Thank you for sharing such an awesome article. I really enjoyed reading it
For me, i really love the last part where you wrote "apologizing may be the only way to save a relationship". You wrote correctly. I may say, true love forgives and is quick to apologize.
I'm now following you, I lok forward to seeing your future posts.
