in the first place, i dunno why i end up having a blog, to write almost everything that i am thinking, feeling, etc...its supposed to be diary-kind-of-thing, but it turns out to be something else. something that i have to do....
please let me elaborate.
i had a good discussion with my senior, early morning last friday. we had a talk, about differences of perspective, and feelings. I told him that it is 2 very different things all together, but he said no. He said, its all started with our perspective on things, on somebody, on something that is going on, and then the feeling will start took over. due to our earlier perspective, sometimes we cannot change it anymore, although we have reasons and evidences to force us to change it.
then i challenge him about faith. i said, if perspective can be related to feelings, then how about faith? faith it about something we believe in. its not perspective anymore, because perspective is what we think of things. then he said its the same thing as well. from perspective, we will feel the need to believe, then we believe.Hmm...~ (he's an atheis by the way, so mind him as he really doesnt believe in God anyway)
but from that discussion, i had my mind thinking of other things that relate to perspective, feelings and faith. (i will exclude religion here, because i definitely have my own faith in Islam and Allah, and nothing will change that)
About perspective: i have been thinking about blogging, about youtube, about facebook, about people going to clubs, people smoking (sorry ayah chik.. ;D ) people being very easily influenced by news/rumors etc...is it their perspective that they have to be like everybody else, or the need to do the same way as other people, so that they will be accepted in the community? (i had a colleague who did not have any facebook, friendster, twitter accounts, only an alternate email address from our company's email. he said he doesnt need any of those. he did not feel the need to be connected with outside world, with his friends via online. he prefer the old ways, phone calls or long emails.) so, does it make him anti-social? No, he has a lot of friends by d way, and still keep in touch with them. Does it make him somehow left behind from the technology? Not really, as he is very good in IT. So, is it a crime not to part of the rest of us? No.
About feelings : i am relating this to myself. I wrote in this blog, and sharing this only to certain important people in my life (not for public) as i want to share what is goin on tru my mind, what is happening to us, etc. Its just a medium for sharing. Its free, and easy. But the truth is, i cannot write some sensitive issues, or using some offending words to anybody i am angry with, and i also cannot be as open as i want to. There are still restrictions i would say...so, does it help writing a blog? i would say, 50-50. i dont keep any diaries, so whatever left that is very private and disclose, i would rather share it with Dina or Abi. and that's it. my most trustful persons. but i will continue writing though...it gave me the "relaxing and soothing" feelings... --> ok, maybe its because i love karangan back in high school, or i just love LONG updates... ~_^
lastly, about faith : i felt sorry for my senior, as he is such a nice guy, but ending up not having any faith in God. i openly said it out to him that i pity him by not having any God, but he simply said "its ok. I've been doing well since i was a small boy"
so there you go - perspective, feelings and faith. for me, its 3 different things all together, but somehow its related to each other. it would be different from one person to another (i bet it) but see? its all depending on your own perspective people.... =)
i merely writing this without any effort or meaning to offend anyone else. if you think otherwise, i will not challenge it, as u are free to think, to feel and to believe as u do.
"dont be sooo serious meh....rileks, enjoy!" --> quote from my Amoi friend, Chloe Tang. ;D
