First impressions!!
Well, long time no post. I was just busy, but now I'm as free as I can be. I don't know why this happens to me every time?Whenever I am busy I always find plenty of things to talk about and have this 'desire' to write and speak out some thoughts in my mind. And then, when I'm free and have so much time to do whatever I want, I lose all these thoughts. I don't know, it's a bit annoying.
So, I will just talk about anything popping up into my mind. I just remembered that I once read that the novel 'Pride and Prejudice' was actually named 'First impressions' before coming out with the name we know nowadays. Though 'Pride and Prejudice' is the most fitting name to the novel I also like 'First impressions'. Don't you think we're a bit affected by the first impressions we make? Don't you, moreover, think that most of the time these first impressions are wrong and force us into false roads? When thinking over some things I've done in the past and some opinions I've built in the past just because of first impressions, I regret being that shallow and jumping into conclusions without any reason. I mean first impressions could be fun when you say: Yeah, this guy seems boring. But this assumption shouldn't affect your opinion, this assumption can go no further, it just cannot be but an assumption. So, I would advise any of you not to take assumptions serious because they may drive you mad or let you miss some chances in knowing new people. Just as the case of Mr. Darcy and Lizzy: Their 'first impressions' on each other prevented them from knowing each other's real person and from falling in love with each other. Maybe this would be the case with any of us. Maybe the first impression obstacle would prevent us from getting to know people we might miss: friends, relatives and people in general. Don't you think it would be unfortunate to lose things in such a simple way??!
Hope I could help with this post.
