Everyone forms impressions on the surrounding environment, people and issues that they deal with in a spilt second. Its like a piece of clay being mounded to a certain shape.. I'm a visual person thus i form impressions based on my observations and interactions with people..
Probably thats why I like to interact with people of all levels and co ordinate events with youth ministry... Its rather fascinating to learn about the different categories of people existing..
Personally, I used to be conscious of the impressions that I gave people. That was during the time when I was less confident. Of course, I still am concerned over the impressions i gave people.
Through people's eyes, i see what their perceptions of me.. Its usually the below.. " bubbly, sociable, reliable, independent, capable, positive etc.." The above are true to a certain extent but there is also a inner side of me that is less seen.. Only a few people who know me really deep will understand it.
Being positive, cheery and bubbly does not mean that I do not have emotions. Like every gal, I have my insecurities and times that I need assurances. The difference is that I do not show it.
Like every gal, there is always this fantasy about wedding gowns and stuff.. Its the society that has shaped our minds to be such. For me, I still have emotions.. Even though I did think about going for nunhood, I know I'm not ready for it.
I do fall in love with people..been there done that. There are happy moments as well as sad moments. I do not fall for people easily but if that someone happen to has all the qualities that I'm looking for, i can fall deep inside the whirlpool.. Being a Buddhist also means that as a practioner in the Dharma, Buddhistic families can be formed to spread Buddhism.. This is what i aspire to establish if i get hitched.. Otherwise, singlehood is also an option just like Dr Kenneth Tan. He is a eligible bachelor, a doctor who stays single as his choice..
This is an area that I do not think I can ever finish writing.. Because I'm changing, people are changing and hence the impressions change too...
May everyone leave good impressions on everyone..and stay positive in life..
