what's about understanding ourselves?

typically, when i blog, it's usually when i'm supposed to be doing something else other than blogging... like say... preparing for the infamous m6!!!!!!

hmmm.. been doing quite a few facebook quizzes.. just thought a little... have you thought that the answers make all traits sound really positive? haha.. maybe that's why it's fun and nice to do them.. not like they truly determine who we are, but, they may bring out traits we have, and really dress them up nicely.. =p

then again.. i wonder how many of us do try to define or understand who we are, how we feel etc etc.. i sorta think we do that most of the time?? or maybe, only crazy people like me?? hehe... as if life has insufficient issues to bog us down with!!

simple thoughts of "flight or fight" situations, "cheating vs integrity", "anger vs letting trivials go"... all fine lines and many times these are spur-of-the-moment decisions aren't they? so who are we inside, do we really know? i suppose personality is something very "fluid", something without a mould.. as in.. some traits may stand out, like say, favourite colors, temperaments, hobbies, competitiveness... but perhaps actual behaviors like reactions to life situations could be what we never really know till we're facing them.. at least i do know, sometimes my behaviors do surprise myself with what i thought i would have done otherwise..

caught a news report on a road accident that injured a handful.. passengers were scolding the badly injured driver for reckless driving in the bus he was ferrying them in... i would think that i can feel the anger of these people whose lives were at stake... then again maybe some would feel, how would that help the situation when that very man could stop breathing the next moment? hmmm... any thoughts? i'm just wondering..

in this very realistic world we live in, we grow to adapt and protect our hearts, protect our priorities in many ways, and sometimes learn to react or comment on situations in certain ways.. but perhaps, it's only at the brink of a situation that we might reveal our true inner selves since that's when the clothing of self-consciousness is ripped off without time to think..

okies... m6.. HERE I COME!!
