Let's say no

Nowadays the current generation speaks alot using complicated words like "CIGARETTE", "ALCOHOL", "WEED" and the most trending word "RELATIONSHIP".  When such big words are pronounced so properly,  then why not a simple two letter word called "NO"?  Is it so hard to pronounce that specific word?

      "HALF OF THE TROUBLES OF THIS LIFE CAN BE TRACED BY SAYING YES TOO QUICKLY AND NOT SAYING NO SOON ENOUGH. " --Josh Billings.


 Have you noticed how difficult it is to say NO?  Just try it when your friends ask you to join them.  Will you be able to say "NO"?  No..... You cant. Saying a "no" isn't as easy as we think. But a word "no" can make you different from others. We all have the fear of being ignored/rejected especially by our friends if we say no for late-night parties, or other activities which they are okay with but not you.. Still we don't say NO. Instead we fight with parents and go against their decisions and go for those activities. We try whatever our friends do to show them that we are also like them. We try to become one among them but  if you notice we hide our self and act as someone else. We never show up our real personality. The fear of being ignored makes us say yes even if we don't feel to say.

     It isn't like that. By saying "no" we don't lose our close ones instead it shows your decision towards that concept and the fact that you live your life on your own terms. So when ever you say your decision,  be confident and don't say "maybe" and all. Either yes or no. If you dont feel like saying yes, then say NO. Don't fear of losing friends. "Friends come and go,  but only true friends stay"
