Everyone has the right to express their freedom; after all, we live in a free world.

Actually, every one of us wants to be heard, and for that reason we tend to choose the mode of expression which suits us best. Sometimes, in this process of expressing ourselves, we end up arguing with someone to prove our point without even noticing that we are losing our own identity. We should suppress our egos in order to reduce negative thoughts and try to look at the matter as if it was “half full” rather than “half empty”.

During the process of a discussion it often happens that the subject of the argument is deviated from by the inclusion of elements which only serve to further entrench one’s own position, leading towards nowhere. We can believe in ourselves to such an extent that we cannot accept even for an instant that it may be us who is in the wrong, and many times we knowingly try to prove our wrong point right merely in order to lead our egoism to a pseudo-victory. Arguments are unique events in that they can cause one to experience a diverse range of feelings such as happiness, sadness, guilt, embarrassment, and whatnot. But why is it that we argue? Simply because we want to be heard, or rather it’s our ego which wants to prevail.

The word people is plural and we are entitled to stay with people, so why can’t we accept the fact that there can be a variety of answers to anything and everything and that things can be done in different ways. We could discuss this impartiality ad infinitum, but the fact remains that there can be no end to argument, because it is as human to argue as it is to make mistakes. We all know that arguing is unhealthy, but paradoxically a healthy argument is the perfect tonic for overcoming our egoism.

The world is made up of thoughts followed by deeds, and we are mere spectators until we choose to participate.
