hmm.. this will be a random blog. so random that it won't have a title.
haha. can't really point a finger at what i really want to say. well..i'll just let my thoughts flow. :)
how should i put it? i just think that i've been so superficial or maybe i should say insensitive. it's not that i want to but it's really not within my control. there's always the lack of information or rather the lack of understanding of people around me that propels me to form a certain opinion of someone. it's impossible to know everything about a person- his past encounters his present state of mind and even his character. what we know of a person we know now is just a perception and impression that we form from our daily conversations with him/her.
perhaps it's the different experiences that each of us go through that make us choose different paths in our lives. the choice of continuing to study, getting married and settling down, staying single, getting a job etc. choosing either of these gives others a different impression of you. perhaps if you choose to marry young, others will mostly think of the negative reasons for you doing so. but have we ever thought that the person could have other reasons for doing so? maybe it could have been a way of freeing oneself of problems? perhaps it's something that one had always wanted to run away from, unhappy events; it's their way of seeking solace. somehow as grown-ups, or at least we're at a stage when we can't really avert or solve a problem simply by throwing tantrums, making impulsive decisions with the same naivity and ignorance of the consequences as we could when we were young and hot-headed.
okay i think im side tracking. and i've found my point: dont just judge a person based on your acquaintance with him for only a small fraction of your life and think that what you think is 100% true. everyone has his past and it forms what they are today and you cant really fault them. show some empathy for others even though they are just different from you.
and i shan't go on or you'll become totally confused. haa.. im really not on form today.
