As long as your intentions are true and are from the heart, the action shall not be doubted or misconstrued.
Well well people...time for another serious post! While chatting with Yi Xian today,I just remembered this quote, from who or where,i will probably never recall as i have the memory of an ant..only remembering where to locate food. So anyway...i wonder just how much weight does this quote hold in the modern age where the first impression holds more weight than 5 or 10 meetings might. Partially, Mandy's latest blog post got me thinking bout it too..partially,i may add..it added fuel to my inquisitional flame.
See..this is one example why I question that quote. a guy,is generally friendly with a girl,chats with her often etc..because she is an interesting person to chat with.his frens may perceive that he is interested in her and is paying special attention to her...fair? you be the judge...
so let's talk about actions..k..actions,to me,are divided into 2 segments...reason and reaction...simple no? but that's just cos i believe in the theory of relativity,that is, every action has it's reason and reaction(O.o sounds like i ripped it out eh?)
Now,because an action is dictated by a reason and reaction,it may eventually daunt on a person to be aware of his actions so that he may not be misjudged..or even worse yet..his actions be misconstrued to have a hidden agenda (oh dear not that lol). Some individuals might analyze everything they do,thinking a wee too much making them use their brain for all the wrong reasons,adding more stress into their life..and hey..i've never known anybody that needs more stress,do u? anyway..i've strayed off...now,what if the person didn't analyze too much..preferring to partially hide it..or hide it altogether? Well then,some people would understand...knowing that he/she would want to escape unfair scrutiny...but what about the other people,those who take things at face value? they'd probably go "Oh..what have u been doing so quietly ah? Oh...i get it..",meaning,they'd think u hide it for a specific reason...and then,they might misconstrue it further thinking that u hid it from them because u didn't want them to find out..giving them all the more reason to poke fun at u(admitedly of course,that is..if those individuals don't listen to the voice of logic or reason..but u can never blame a person for their lack of IQ,i'd rather feel bad for them knowing how much they could possibly humiliate themselves..and there i go straying off again.)
So now,what's a person to do? Caught between the devil and the deep blue sea,that would possibly be the only explanation i can get. regardless of what they do,negative perception always arises..therefore..it's one element of human nature that i feel could demoralise a person completely...removing him or her to merely a shadow of his or her past(i seem to be using a lot of metaphors and quotes today,haven't i?). As for me,well,i take the bitter with the sweet..do as i will,let people see me,no facades,no tricks..i am what i am. Judge me if u might,correct u as i may...ur thoughts are ur very own,what u do with it,i really do not want to know(who knows,u might have perverted dreams of stars at nite O.o [p.s-at the rate i'm going,the poem The Road Not Taken would not apply to me because i'm straying all over the damn place]).For you people,a small piece of advice,never judge a book by it's cover(heh,i think i could be voted most cliched dude)..contemplate the person's action before critisizing,for all u know...he/she may be truly sincere and have no hidden agenda...and ur comment just might be the last straw before he/she slips into depression,and that ain't a happy place to be[tho i must admit,mind games do prove to be fun when the person doesn't get the underlying meaning of ur words >:)].
So i guess,my post is nearly complete..i've ranted to my heart's content(more precisely,to my mental limit cos i've been sleeping at 2-3 am every day for the past week) and i think i shall go to sleep...but before i do,i probably would go star gazing a lil bit..been a while since i've done it.
[p.p.s -Christmas With The Kranks,Tim Allen,what more can i say,go watch it and indulge urself in the selfless acts of christmas,no matter how silly it may be]
[p.p.p.s - I will be straying to Orchard Road one of these nights to take pictures of the decorations,anybody wanna go?]
