When we get to know someone, we're blind... blinded to their flaws, their strengths, their thoughts. But since we're inevitably affected by our surroundings and we're all the products of the people we know and our environment... we're like clay (that can be moulded and shaped).
Here's a thought. When we get to know someone, we're like a blind man feeling a clump of clay in our hands. If we press too hard and impose too much of our ideas upon them... before we get to know them for who they really are, we have unintentionally (or not) moulded them with our fingers. Hence, the shape we feel.... is simply the shape of our own hands. How do we know what is the right amount of pressure to exert then?
Like how 2 ice cubes which are pressed against each other... the pressure and the heat causes the surface atoms and molecules to melt, and then freeze back again so the ice cubes are joined together. Is change inevitable when 2 bodies come into contact?
How much of us are changed by people we meet... and how much do we retain? IF in fact, we are meant to be a product of the people we meet and our environment... resisting that change will not make us who we are really meant to be. Perhaps, that's just how humans evolve, grow, mature, and adapt.
After all, if everyone remains the same... the world will never change.
Is change after all, the only constant?
Don't bother to comment or correct. This is just random ramblings. A thought that found it's way to my blog before it got lost somewhere in my mind again.
