The Annoying Ring Tone



Like every other day when i get to the office, i sit at my desk and plan for the day's activities. Today was no different only that i needed to settle in faster because i came in late. I was working on some documents when i heard a some loud song playing in the other office. I was about to ask my colleague to tone it down only to realize it was actually her phone ringing. Minutes after, I heard another sharp noise and i was sure its another phone ringing. Sitting at my desk i wondered how these people were able to stand such ring tones. Then it dawned on me, i too have a ringtone. Could it perhaps be annoying to them as theirs was?

The truth of life is that we all have different tastes and preferences. In as much as we are all humans we all produce different results when called upon. To some the way in which we do our things is annoying and if they had the chance they would perhaps do an alteration to suite them. But then again they are not the true owners of our body.The phone owners get to decide the kind of ringtone they want to use on their phone. This is the same way we have all been given the power to live life doing different things in life. While some might be big bodied taking up much space in the bus they cannot be trimmed to the size we want. While others may be high pitched in talking we cannot put something to lower their vocal cords.

Not everyone we meet will be like we would want. The important thing to remember when we are finding fault in others is that we too have our own faults that others find annoying. All we need to do is tolerate each other and accept that we all can't produce the same ring tone.

Have a day filled with tolerance for each other.

  1. ...speaking of ringtones...someone had set Ken Maria's latest hit 'Fundamentals' as his ring-back tone. How annoying to say the least!
