351 - Luis Suárez

I have never been a fan of his. Hell, I've never been a real soccer fan, after I got introduced to the pure sport, Basketball, and the pure competition in the form of NBA.

Recently, I've seen Suárez's picture around town a lot. He has been part of the Adidas campaign, #ThereWillBeHaters. [I can't congratulate Adidas enough on their awesome choice of him. We all know how hater-prone Suárez is. ]

This is it. This is all there is in this world. If you get a pair of new shoes, people are jealous, cause they want them to be theirs. Same goes for literally anything else.
You got a new, awesome job. Guess what, there are some of your acquaintances and friends, who are jealous.
In a world full of competition, this is the result. People start as being jealous after a competition, when they don't finish first. Through days and years, being a hater becomes normal, and people get used to it. Before you know it, you are being jealous, hating on people, for a competition you were never in.

Being jealouse, Hating, is not the way of good people. At some point you need to stop. Well, if you never started, that's perfect. But if you have started already, you need to stop. At some point, you need to stop being a part of a huge and wrong culture, the culture of hate.

It's dumb to hate.
Thanks for reminding me of that on daily basis, Adidas.
