To the pure, all things are pure

I finally have some personal time to myself..this few days have been crazy! sleeping late and waking up so early and having all my days packed! I am glad it is all over..just feel like slacking and having some personal time.

Went to watched GI JOE today. It was below my expectation. Somehow my taste for movies has changed. I no longer enjoy those no brainer action movies as much. They are good, CGI wise. I feel the plot is really soso, in fact, it does not really make senses. Maybe because it is based on some kids toy, so it does not really have an indepth plot. Any tom dick or harry can make an action packed movie if they pump in alot of money, but to make one with great storyline is a tough soup to brew.

Was reminded of the saying tgar Pst mentioned for a period of time, "To the pure , all things are pure...". One impt thing that i realised that is that one's perception and thinking is what ultimately guides a person. Basically there are 3 group of ppl in this world

1) Those who perceive they are wrong all the time.
- they are the one who are crazy. They lost their senses and orientation. They no longer believe in anything about themselves. That's why depression can lead to mental breakdown. Depression causes one to lose all hope of life and they start to think they are wrong(hence losers) all the time.

2) Those who percieve they are right some of the time.
- They are the "normal" ppl. They don make judgement on the spot. They consider viewpts.

3) Those who perceive they are right all the time.
- Those who always think they are right all the time.They are CONFIDENT that their knowledge and experience will prove them right. They think ppl are always in the wrong or they are deceived or naive. They will argue all the time to prove their pt. They have strong determination, but they can be soooooo strong in their view pt, that they are ssoooooo teribly wrong.



In fact, everyone has a combination of the 3 kinds( obviously if you constantly think in viewpt no 1, you need help!). I feel i am the 3rd kind most the time, be it whether i know it or not. It is a result of overly-confident(pride), the refusal to accept things as they are presented to me and lack of trust in ppl. To counter this problem, I will ponder alot. To grill and grill what viewpoints, ideas or stance i am taking, to be very sure that i am not being biased. Occasions( trust me, there are MANY) will come that i meet similar kind of people, they will show aggressiveness, talk in loud voice, display alot of emotions and they usually end up not wanting to carry on talking.


End of the day, you must know what kind of viewpoints do you hold most of the time. This will help you to become a better communicator and at the same time, allows you to learn from flaws that might have escape your radar.
