Be thankful to your enemies

The first question that pops into your heads after reading this topic is why in god’s name I should thank my enemy for my success and hard work.

Well kind of true, Right? We all should thank our friends and family for supporting us and staying by our side during the hardest days of our lives.

But friends, I feel that enemies deserve more of our blessings because they are the ones to treat us BADLY, they are the ones who are unfair to us, yet they are the ones who bring out the best in us. Their harsh behavior towards us makes us realize our potential and look at the same task differently. They will tell you your faults.


They can be your colleagues in an office, classmates in college/school, your boss, teachers/professors etc.

Enemies serve a great purpose in our lives. They are like the chosen evils of our life. They plan evil against you and somehow you manage to survive this and you end up getting stronger.


I read an interesting post about Walt Disney – The man who created Mickey Mouse

Did you know that Mickey Mouse may have never been existed if it were not for a distressing professional hold-up imposed on Walt Disney by then distributor, turned enemy – Universal Pictures? Who’s heard of Oswald the Lucky Rabbit?

Right ?

This is just one example. There are many scientists, actors, actresses, writers out there with the same story.

The bitter medicines in our lives are given to us by our enemies, not friends, sure they are by your side every now and then. But do you really think that we need our friends if we don’t have enemies? Well This one’s a thinker, isn’t it?

To have bitter people in our lives is a must. They push us over the edge and really help us. They help us build our foundation stronger and make us realise the small details in our lives.

Also they are the ones who know that we can do better in our lives. So don’t hate them instead LEARN from them.

You can Kill your enemies only with success and bury them with a smile on your face.

So, try to love your enemies.

And a big thank you to all my enemies for what I am today.
