Homo sapiens..

Well, time for some big post again ( sorry la miss yilian, no random post ). Haha! Recently I have been pondering about the phrase "homo sapien". For those who studied bio, you guys probably know what it means. For those who don't, it means human being. It was told that each and everyone of us is special and unique in our own way, created in God's images. Scientifically it has proven that we are all unique individuals as none of us have the same fingerprints. We all have different heights and weight too. Well, the most important aspect of it all, the way we think.

Each and every individual is special in his or her own way of thinking. From choosing who they like to who they hate or what they want and what they don't. No one person in this world could really understand the other, I think. Understand as in thoroughly know you inside out, from what you did to what you gonna do. Even twins could not understand one another that well. So I guess it's rather normal for us to have miscommunication, which lead to misunderstanding, right? More often than not, people always failed to clear things up. Human beings swore for changes yet the next moment you know, they reverted to who they were or what they were doing. Sad, right? Even I myself am guilty of that. I think that's why we need God to guide us and keep us safe from reverting to our old self, one that might not seem so perfect. I aint saying that our life can be perfect but little by little, changes can be made to avoid all the unnecessary hurt, right?

Hm, human have weird minds. Agree? If so, is it good or bad? Aw...STPM in less than 80 days..

hey, that's what humans do. Make mistakes and most of the times not learning from them.
So the first step to become a better person is to be aware and acknowledge that we're not perfect, (be humble) then learn from mistakes. (be willing to change)

Hehehehehe..... DIFFICULT ah!!!!
but POSSIBLE!
