Whenever you are low, people will cheer you up because you are already upset. No-one wants to do something silly which is common these days. People just want you to be there. It is what everyone expects.
Now a day, human lives are very precious because of single child in families. Somehow, family members and relatives do not criticize as they used to do in the past. Criticism in small doses makes one ready for future in the past. This taught people to digest rejection and handle criticism. In a way, people took those incidences as examples and keeps on moving. Since, this has more or less vanished in present times; people have developed lower tolerances to handle rejection and criticism. People get depressed easily and find difficult to move one. Many students face serious issues and cut oneself away from society. Hurdles are part and parcel of life.
As people have gone feedback averse, we mostly say good things only. You hear what you want to hear. These type words keep on massaging your ego. Frankly speaking, your mark sheet tells you everything. No one will tell you that. Deep down, you also know it is the truth. If you are good at something, you will excel anyway. Since, no one wants to tell the truth, people keep on going that way. When you realize it, it is too late.
