Appearance

Appearance

Everyone wants to look good all the time…. Not possible, is it!!?
Few people have the knack of looking good most of the time, likewise few remain as unseen as ever even after the hazardous circumstances they face. Attention is what many seek, and get it at times when it is least needed and even at times when they know they are unheeded. Similar events occur everyday which makes everyone behave in a way that is not themselves.

So, how many of the faces I am looking around at any given time are actually true to their expressions??? No one will ever be able to guess. A person with a deep thinking face might just be trying to fool others in thinking that he indeed is thinking!!!!!

Just one observation and no explanation as yet… and the probability that this observation being an explanation for most of other behavioral aspects makes not only this observation but also a possible explanation more complex..!!

Complex it is. A solution which seems elusive will generally be obvious. So, if I am able to figure out false expressions in others, they would be able to do the same with mine. Hence, I tried to put myself into their shoes… results I found were quite unexpected and astonishing. The person I appear to be to others is totally different from the person I think I am.!!!

Solution to this problem is another area to which the problem never ascertains. Perspective. A person’s action signify something only when you are looking at it in a predetermined perspective, i.e. a single me could ‘appear’ different to two people at the same point of time, not because I acted differently…but, because they perceived my actions in a different manner.

The statement ‘Never judge a man before you actually know him’, is quite true if you are judging a person beyond his appearance, i.e. you may never know a person properly unless your way of knowing him is correct. But still, we humans are unpredictable, so never take decision for others under any circumstances even if they are closest of your friends . Finally about the people seeking attention…what can I say….PEOPLE GET TENDENCIES.

ummm..interesting! the best way to figure out ones expresion is guess is to chk it out when the person whom ur observing isnt aware that anyone is checking the expression on his/her face.

Expressions can be deceiving and the perception definitely DIFFERS from person to person...

When you just decide tht "Yes I know this person..." BANG!!! the person does something that shatters all ur understanding. This happens with all the ppl, all the time...

So... my policy... "Dont go TOO FAR trying to JUDGE a person or interpreting his/her expression". Take ppl as they come...

Yeah! I agree DO NOT take decision for others(even ur closest)... limit urself to suggestions. :)

Hmm now what do we say,.. did you really scribble all this profundity or was your mind playing tricks on you to convince you that this problem really exists? ;).. hehe j/k..
I have read that people's decisions are all based on their personal and cultural baggage. So abnormalcy and weirdness are defined differently across geography. So is a one-size-fits-all test of normalcy, practical..?
