Human Behaviour
I had the EIE briefing yesterday night. In actual fact, we came with a heavy heart. The meeting place was waaay too far for us i.e location: BRADDEL. Moreover, I will not be able to catch the Miss Universe on telly. However, such negative feelings became a passe when we realized how interesting the event is going to turn out to be :)
Human Behaviour. I was writing this entry when the Bjork's song suddenly came to my mind. If you listen to the lyrics very carefully, you will certainly realise how true they are. The song provide an encyclopaedic portrayal of the multiferous characters of people. Of course, it can just be an axiomatic but yet again, there should be some elements of truth, somewhere.
Relationships among people are both virtues and vices. Virtues; since people are able to interact, develop feelings and share knowledge with each other. Vice; due to the work of the cunning devils, people tend to turn to evil deeds in order to obtain their desires and thus, relationships may get fractured along the way.
Relationships are dynamic in nature. In my reflection, I have to acknowledge the fact that my circle of friends differs constantly, from one period to another. People change. In some instances, I would find myself pretty close to a person and the next minute, I realized that we are not on a speaking term any longer. A more awful experience is that in some cases, I will tend to develop hatred to a particular individual although the feeling of deep likeness was clearly inscribed, in the past.
Let us list some reasons why such dynamism is very apparent in relationships among people. Point one: the environment.
For obvious reasons, my close friends in University are not the same close friends that I had when I was in primary school.
Point two: Maturity level.
As we mature, we tend to agglomerate with those who are on the same wave length as us. This may differ from one stage of life to another.
Point three: "Busy"
One word to describe cosmopolitan life: hectic. People's minds are tightly wrapped in the cellophane of being busy and fully occupied with tasks. This will affect the people around them.
Point four: It is the fault of the Pandora's Box
Jealousy. Backstab. Hypocrite. All these ruptured relationships. The task of mending can be very slow or in some worst case scenarios, the wounds are permanent.
Yes. Relationships are indeed very dynamic. I am sick of losing people, here and there. Let me try the horrondous task of trying to shut my own's Pandora's box. Maybe you should try it too. After all, this is also a part of what Bjork called, Human Behaviour. ΒΆ 3:50 PM
