Random thoughts: August 2013

Curious or genuinely interested?

I would say the second applies to me but who is willing to admit that he or she is genuinely curious?

Whereas I would say either way isn't a bad way. It just shows that you still are interested in things outside of your own comfort zone. I'm for sure not loving everyone but that doesn't mean that I'm not interested. Sometimes it's the fascination or maybe even malicious joy and on other occasions it could be empathy, learning from others, thinking outside of the box.

As long as you are acting in a kind way no one will feel laughed at or not taken seriously so is no harm you're doing.

Humans in general are interesting and fascinating in many different ways. This whole big game of action and reaction is not only interesting for psychologists, no, it's even helpful to look at myself. Why are we doing what, why are we feeling served, disappointed, cheated on, etc. Many things just happen because we are thinking in the wrong way, about ourselves or about others. Why should a stranger think something about me, like e.g. "How is she walking" - there are two options why we think that, either we know we are walking quite different compared to others or we don't feel confident in walking which could have thousands of reasons. So who's problem is it, in the end ours. If we want to avoid these thoughts we have to work on ourselves. Work doesn't mean you have to change your style, it could as well just mean we don't care any more about what others may think.

So back to the topic, I love being curious as this is one of the free things in human learning. You don't have to pay a penny to learn from others behavior.

Be keen, enjoy life and grab as many input as you can get - it doesn't harm, it just shows us different options and we may adopt a few and neglect others and that's fine.

Faith in yourself is the greatest thing you can earn,
