inspired by the last few lines of my previous blog; Azim.To love only him.In return was a bitter surprise.They say, people can never be changed by others only by themselves, on their own will. But my thoughts differ. Maybe these type of qoutes cant be followed on to blindly. For nothing is really definite in a human's behaviour..right? This is from what I've learnt in sociology and even a part in GP. Well for what I am trying to say is that, people can in fact change by others presence, not to a whole extent maybe but bit by bit. At times we even change without taking notice to it. For instance, being just being by the side of someone would make you smile, perhaps not literally but emotionally. Or perhaps, to try to hold on to someone, you make promises you're just not sure you can keep.
Well I'm not really siding to the fact that others make you change, cause truly, people only change on their own will. Well call me a hypocrite but it is true no? For the real behaviours that truly affects another is the one we mould ourselves, the ones that we are "born" with. The innate ones. Being lazy, is one behaviour that could not be easily 'socialised' into another. To change that person, would not entirely be through motivation etc, BUT on the will of their own. So what if, we are surrounded by people who loves to work 24/7, their way of entertainment/satisfaction, is to stress themselves with work while we are the 'weird' ones who thinks, a day on the beach, or naps or the t.v is entertainment/satisfaction. Surely when someone starts to label these things as an immoral behaviour (perhaps I overused my vocabulary with 'immoral' but get my point!) we'd perhaps have a sense that we should defend ourselves. We wont simply change to becoming one of them, or even wont change at all. Not exactly to the conclusion that I was talking about, but this is a very vague idea. That sometimes being provoked makes us even more to our negative attitudes (which is still not my point here, but the thought just came out).
So you see, as post-modernists might argue, over time, society changes and through those changes there appears more choices.
I'm still out of my point here, I know. But my mind's partially distracted with the thought that its 1120am now, CSI's coming soon and I should really change the channel. So if this thought comes back, the continuation might be blogged. But as of the record of my old blogs, no continuation has ever been written..xP
