THE DUBAI TRAGEDY OF SEPT.28,was reported by Gulf News ,the Leading Daily from DUBAI, as”
- 00:00 September 28, 2011,
”Teenager devastated as mother and brother die’
Mother jumps to her death after five-year-old son falls from eighth floor in Jumeirah Lake Towers ,Dubai”……….
……”The security guard who tried to catch the boy got injured and was later sent to hospital. Upon seeing this, she became hysterical and rushed to her apartment where she jumped out of the window. The boy died shortly after, but the mother died instantly, police said.”
The incident points to the need for ‘Emotional Self Control& Serious Self Awareness’–two EQ skills essential ‘EVEN for an ordinary home maker role, apart from leaders and managers of different caliber. That clears our doubts about the need for developing these competencies,whatever may be the role that we are in; here in this travel on earth.
Its really shocking ,but to learn lessons from events that happened,elsewhere ,will help us to face difficult life situations intelligently,wisely and the best way possible.If anything can cause A mother not to go up & jump but to sit beside the son(the minimum to console the teenager or to call for help to make a last attempt to save),that one thing is most desirable in any body’s life.
When one could apply the EQ skills in real life,it saves not only his life but the life of many with whom he interacts,depending on his realm.
When we are so ‘busy’, and ”they do not have time for all that,because of business trips” as some people observed, we are neglecting something which is prime just for the existence. As Oliver Goldsmith puts it ”Real greatness is in getting up from the fall,than not to fall”.
We cannot expect a life without problems and challenges,but TRAIN our Heart And MIND ,how to face it with a real Self Awareness and Emotional Self Control.
