walk through life
The way you think has an impact on your character and personality. For
example, a vivid imagination guided many great inventors and explorers.
They
may seem given to fantasy and day-dreaming, but it's part of the charm
in
the character. Everyone has a mind set up differently, asking different
questions, coming up with different answers. Obviously, the majority of
the
people will come up with the answer of two from one plus one; what
would the
majority of the minds reply the answer to 'life' is? The amount of
answers
alone enlightens us of the uniquness in a persons character.
I've often thought about how personalities and characters are
connected,
acknowledging the fact that it's in our nature to come into contact
with
others, to argue opinions, trade thoughts, set fact from fiction. How
does
this have an impact on our lives? Is there really a connection that
isn't
relied on random encounters with random people, in random experiences?
What
significance do questions have in life as we live it?
My opinion is that the questions a person would ask guide them to
their
answers in life. We ultimately all search for the answer of life, Yet
how we
define the answer is based on the questions we ask to arrive to it. I
tend
to ask 'Why do I do this?' or 'Why do I feel this way?' . My answer to
life
would certainly differ from another asking 'What makes me happy?' or
'What
should I do?' . It's noted as a popular phrase 'Half the fun of getting
to
the destination, is in the journey itself', although it may not be
directly
quoted from the original. For the most part, though, isn't life just a
journey in itself?
I find that I often like to be challenged, possibly the reason I
procrastinate is the fact that I know it will be that much harder to
catch
up; challenges make life an interesting journey. Challenges each
persons
have lead to experiences, and as the two differ, the outcome combined
with a
personality determines the character. I have not read this, or
confirmed it
in any way, but from my own character I arrived to this conclusion as
to how
characters develop.
By having similar challenges and experiences, do characters also
become
similar? Looking at societies around us, we can determine that for the
most
part it's true, as cultures develop in different areas and different
times.
There are always the exception to the individuals who choose their
challenges and experiences, as their character reflects more of their
personality. Obviously these individuals stand out, as they think
differently and are noticed for it.
Thinking differently because of differing characters may be a reason
why
humans are considered the 'superior' race on earth. Yet is it not true
that
humans are also the race that lead to desruction of other life on earth
simply to ease our own lives? I find it interesting that we find life
so
complicated and frustrating as we advance our knowledge and wisdom,
that we
think of more ways to try and make life simpler when life is meant to
have
challenges. Human diversity in thoughts and opinions cause much greif,
sarrow, anger, confusion, yet these emotions let us confirm that we are
'alive'.
This now brings us back to the question, 'What significance do
questions
have in life as we live it?'. Obviously there is no set solution to the
answers of life. I believe we are all connected in some way, maybe not
to
everyone but to others with similar character styles as ourselves. A
journey
is all we have for now, so why not challenge it more and make the
journey
that much more interesting? 'Half the fun of getting to the
destination, is
in the journey itself'. Every question has an answer, it's just some
journeys are longer than others. The destination is affected by our
character, and the character is derrived on the journey. It seems so
simple,
yet in reality, no matter how much we try to make life easier to live,
the
challenges will still be there and life is complicated, as there are no
black or white answers, only grey.
