Reflections of the day
Humans house one of the most complex machines in the world known as the brain... the directing of the intricate mechanical functioning of the body is reason to marvel at and that coupled with emotions and feelings introduce diversity and individuality in people. In short, people are different and it is not always possible that people see eye to eye with others... this introduces problems...Some people have a higher threshold level... they generally dun see anything wrong with certain things that other people feel are or that they can endure certain level of mistakes and always hope to avoid aggression or confrontation... other people are more sensitive to the surroundings and the people around them and they tend to want to right the wrongs or correct the mistakes if they believe it justifiable... i dunno which one is considered better or more appropriate... i suppose it depends on the situation... I am inclined to think that i am of the same nature as the former...
The thing is, keeping quiet does not solve any problem at times... It may even worsen the situation and help to feed the problem causing it to go out of control. However i feel that if whatever i say does not add value to the situation or does not help to ease the situation... they can do without my input to confuse them further... I dun know if this is considered a 'heck care' attitude cos i am not actively trying to solve the problem but rather waiting for a solution to present itself or seen as trying to extricate myself from the mess.
I realise that sometimes persisting on a problem does not necessarily solve it... it just becomes an endless cycle of arguments which of course arises from the differences in mentalities and experiences. Sometimes we are just very caught up with a certain point or argument that we fail to consider the big picture... sometimes taking a back step and looking at the big picture can present a simple yet effective solution...
