The more you assume you know someone, the more they surprise you...
Well, it's the same with yourself I guess. We all think we know ourselves but do we really?
Anyways, so a bunch of surprises occurred this week. Some people weren't quite as I thought they were... but yeah, it was not always an unpleasant surprise...
In some cases, I was rather surprised to a point I could not understand their actions... (but you know what, who am I to try to understand people's behaviour. ) I question but I can't figure it out. Anyways, let'em do their stuff... whatever makes them happy. Just don't ask me for advice or opinion about it, cuz I'll be blunt. I hate those people who just tell you what you wanna hear. What's the point of asking for someone's advice then.
In some other cases, i was pleasantly surprised. I guess first impressions are never accurate, but to be impressed so much after a few meetings is quite something. All these things that I do not necessarily wish to see in myself, such as insecurity, doubt and fear..., well I saw them in someone else, and I saw them in a very different way. Somewhat... beautifully? I don't know how to express exactly what I saw, but it made me feel as if, I shouldn't see them as negatively as I have. Maybe insecurity is the first step to self-confidence.
I found out that people are always centering everything on themselves (and who could blame them) but at different levels. Of course, it's impossible to center oneself completely on others but I also don't want to be one who focuses entirely on myself. If I can find the way to be balanced.... in other words, to be there for the others when they're in time of need without losing myself in the process, it would be quite an achievement. I feel like I am always doing too much or not enough. Learning process. Eventually I should master it right?
