Ever thought of this topic??? “The Human nature”…
Very vast one of course and cannot be covered in just one post. U can consider this as the first part and the rest of the parts may or may not follow depending on my mood :)...
Hmm so there comes a human nature… being moody…
I have met many ppl in my life and all have different different nature. No two person I have met who have same nature. May be similar, but never the same.
Well, God would have done a lot of hard work to create so much of variety…
Well, I have many friends. Some are happy go lucky kinds who don’t get worried about anything, and some who take everything seriously. Some who are always ready to do just anything for others , and some who are very much self oriented or selfish, whichever way u like to call it. Some are not at all moody, some are. Some are confident, and some lack it very much. Some have a positive outlook towards life, some see only the negative aspect of life. Some like to have a smile on their face always, some prefer to have a grim expression. Well, the list doesn’t end here, but I better not make it an unending list… Hmm you can read an “etc” after the list. (A very intelligent word it is: etc. It makes people believe that you actually know more than what you have stated ;) ).
Add 10 points for yourself, if u have a nature that comes before the comma in the above list. (eg. In the sentence: Some like to have a smile on their face always, some prefer to have a grim expression….if u fall in the "like to have a smile on their face always category", add on 10)
and if your total adds up to 40 or above, you are a good human being…
he he he obviously, I am kidding.
Well jokes apart, there exist some strange kinna ppl on this earth who cannot see anything/ anyone other than themselves. These kinna ppl are called the selfish kinds. Which ever circumstance they face, they somehow tend to think as to “how is it going to affect me?” they never think “if I do it this way, will it help others”. Well, not many ppl think in the later way. Its very difficult to be selfless but I guess it wont be that difficult to think in this way “It should affect me positively and should not hurt others too at the same time”.
Recently met a kind who have a problem accepting their faults. Is it that difficult to accept your fault if u know that you are actually wrong. They somehow analyze everyone else on this world other than themselves and point out other's mistakes but somehow never see the mistakes they themselves make. And even if someone points it to them, they have a problem accepting it. They prefer to ignore it rather than accept the same. Well, if you ever have a problem with someone and you realize at some point of time that you are wrong, then accept it. Say sorry, and of course “mean it”!. Believe me, it doesn’t hurt at all. The other person will only appreciate your gesture.
Hmm, another category, and a very interesting one: the “Mr./Ms. Know it all” kinds.
Well, these people seem to know about just anything and everything under the sky. And will have a view about just everything and seem to have experienced and faced every possible situation. Hmm, they also feel that they are “Mr./Ms perfect” :)
Some are mature to the core. And some at the same time are just too immature.
Have met ppl who are just too mature for their age. They think everything in a very logical manner. They know: what to do, when to do and how to do. They, actually can, face just any situation.
Have a friend who faces life very coolly. And u know? He never had to struggle for anything so far, as far as I know. He has got all that he wanted and never had to ask for it.
Probably, if you think positive, you will get positive results. And vice versa.
Will u believe it? A friend of mine was asked to go as an external examiner in his college after 5 yrs of passing out and he accepted it without thinking twice. Well, it’s not that easy to judge a student if you yourself are not thorough with the subject. And it’s only very natural to forget what you studied 5 yrs back. Well, what he showed was confidence in himself and also it proves his memory and intelligence too.
Ever wondered why we forget what we studied in our previous year’s classes but somehow tend to be able to recollect the lines of a song that, may be, you would have last sung 10-11 yrs back???
Hey, will tell you a funny incident that happened to one of my friend during her college days. I know I am deviating from the topic, but I don’t mind it :).
Well, she realized the fact stated above and hence decided to make use of it in a positive way. What she did was, she replaced the lyrics of one of her favorite songs with the formula that she had to memorize. It was fitting perfect with the tune of the song that she had selected. Well, the D day came, and luckily the same question came in the paper. She was very happy to see that question. But, fate had some other plans for her :(. She could recollect the song and the tune perfectly but could not recollect the lyrics that she had put in!!!! I guess, that’s life ;) ha ha ha
Well, coming back to the topic.
Another category is the “too good to be true” kinds.
This phrase is used for ppl who seem to be sooooo good that they cannot be true.
Hey, ever met a kind that is too good and true at the same time?
Well, I have. I actually know two ppl who fall under this category.
You wont believe it but, they think about others before thinking about themselves. They somehow don’t have any kind of jealousy, or any ego. They accept their faults graciously...
Well, I find myself lucky that they both are very good friends of mine :).
To be contd…
NB:
1)Hmm, now don’t ask me what kinna person I am :)
2) Hey ppl, there is one important thing that I would like to tell you all. Kindly donot misunderstand that I classify my friends. My friends may not be perfect, they may have negatives in them, but they are my friends and i simply love them just the way they are :). Must have heard rt, that "noone is perfect untill u fall in love with them":)...
3) Also, want to tell that when I have made a conclusion about someone's nature, I have done that after analysing them well and knowing them well enough for a long enough duration as making a conclusion about a person by meeting him/her only once or twice would be a wrong thing to do. You will, most of the times, reach a wrong conclusion in that case as the mood or reaction of a person are mostly influenced by the situation n circumstances too.

Hmmm...... So you selected a philosophical and a psychological topic to write on. Human Nature, is affected by 3 factors according to me. They are : your mind, your actions and the people around you. There are also the following kind of people on this earth: Who, first make a firm decision with their "mind", then decide to "act" according to what their mind has said and gradually get affected by what "others" say and finally end up doing "something" other than what they had thought and later blame the "others". Thats Human Nature for you. Find fault in others and find yourself clean. If you ask me, what is that one (or maybe two)factors which actually would be responsible for the constant changing attitude of Human Nature are the two senses of the Human Body: eyes and ears. Both directly influence the working of the "Human mind". You think on what you see or have seen and what you listen. So ,I say, if you could just tune up the way you need to react to whatever you see and listen then Human Nature can never be so fast changing not knowing its right or wrong. A bit of foresight is also required to ensure that if the same thing happens in future, the response should be well thought of , in advance.
hmmm... Madame is becoming philosophical day by day !!
good that you are able to put the thoughts swirling in ur mind in your post .. :-)
I feel the trick is in knowing what you are & if the knowledge brings you happiness then great ...else it is high time one did something positive to change his/her attitude ... Need to evolve & adapt and still try to maintain your uniqueness ...
That I feel is already built into "Human Nature"

Yes madam lavan :)
me trying to become philosophical or rather trying to sound so ha ha ha.. wen i was a kid, i used to like such ppl who didnt use to talk much. I used to think that those who dont talk much are mature he he he.. well, i know now thats not wot is maturity.
Actually, i have started thinking now a days for a change ;). so just pen them down wen i feel like.
U know lavan? Its fun to know urself. It does give u happiness and the confidence.
A nice topic and very complex topic. Can u tell how do u judge a person by being with them for a very less time. There are people who have that capabilities. Nice to note that u have that and have classified your friends based on the class they sit. I would rather not. As mood is related to surrounding and the complexity rather not push a person too far getting facts about him. Analysis were good and compliment for that. But there was a mistake and think its for the first time. Check out the explaination for ETC and try to find out. All the best
Nice to hear that u dont classify persons. I meant not in a way that hurts but how should people be judged. Rather than taking the comment literally i should be felt. Mean it. Carry on

:) Mr anonymous, have included a note in my post 'coz of the misunderstanding that you had about me. I guess, its fine now :). Have corrected the spelling mistake too :). Thanks for correcting me. He he he, I accepted my fault graciously enough I guess ;)
Thats good that u have accepted it. And FYI that was not considered as a mistake. It was a friendly review. Sorry had it hurt u by some means
but is it that gud to judge people like that... no one can b gud always!!! human nature :)
yup. i know, noone can be good always. n noone is perfect either. but isnt it true that a person tends to make an opinion about others??? a person always leaves an image in ur mind rt??? human nature again i guess ;)
wel wel welllllll
i feel like the topic shud not end .. v interesting ...
now desperately waiting for next 2 sessions ...
>>a person always leaves an image in ur mind rt???
huh..it wont change at al?
that is a lot of thinking about the human nature....
a lot of wise men (and women) have pondered over the subject... my two cents -
the human nature keeps changing all the time. we imbibe characteristics from those around us, those we admire, things we see, we read.. our beliefs and ideas change, and to an extent, our nature does too....
Like so many laugauges spoken in our single country..there are so many human nature which can be spoken out...List goes on..
what outlook a person wants is totally his decision..other person is just to conclude..
Having said that Be Yourself and may it be for the ppl u care,love:)
Human Nature is complex than I felt..Dont worry we still have complex algebra called Life to solve the puzzle..Live Life Moment By Moment...
well said mr. me who else :)
yes, life is a very complex algebra and each person we meet is one difficult problem to be solved...
Human nature is tooooooooo complex. i too agree with that.. i just wrote a small article about it and there are so many other aspects to be covered about it that one can write may be an entire book about it..
Understanding someone completely is very difficult. Even after staying with ur life partner for many yrs, i dont think one can understand the other person completely.. As u told to me once " noone can understand u better than urself".. yup thats true indeed...
I can hide things from others but not from myself..
