Rambling on reasons

Everyone has a reason behind what they do. Or perhaps the statement should be phrased in such a way; " Everyone can creates a reason for something"

If everyone has his/her reason to do something and everyone has different reasons, what do we do?

It doesn't help with everyone talks about their own reason and expecting others to accept. Because like what is mentioned before, everyone can weave different stories as a reason.

When everyone expect each other to understand their reason, that's when those beautiful stories known as reasons has a change of name "unreasonable".

Men have their reasons. Women have their reasons. Bosses have their reasons, employees have their reasons. Friends have their reasons. Everyone says they have a reason for doing certain thing. Deep beneath the sheep coat engraved with the word "reason", is a simple fact that everyone is telling themselves a story and to make sure they are not in a state of self deception, they tell the stories to others in a different name known as facts. Everyone is trying to sell stories as the ultimate truth.

Do reasons exist? How important are reasons? Maybe perhaps what we need is empathy for others instead of reasons. If reasons are fictional and a matter of perspectives, can we now try to tell story from another person's point of view? Feel their story, hear their hearts and be for once, in the moment with another person rather than selling the thing call "reasons"

Let's cut away the reasons, let's hear people out. Let's share our empathy for each other and feel more joy rising from our hearts.
