Erm ...no thanks Hami,
perhaps ...next time?

besides, i still disagree with "truth is all liberating" thingy,
maybe for some, but not for all ..
sometimes, finding out the truth about peopl ...

Or go deep.

Skin deep, there may be hurts, but go deeper then the truth will liberate you. In a nice way.

Of course. This people say something in the office, make you feel hurt, angry. Though, this is only apparent. This is not the truth.

Deeper, people really are not going at us. They have their own problem,. they may燽e too precoccupied.
Or maybe you go deeper and realise that outside circumstance never dictates how we feel. It is our reaction to it that determines our feeling.

Go deeper. Deeper and may you find the truth. Something quintessential.

Think small and everything's too big for our iris. Think big and everything comes into perspective.

In爉y humble opinion this is...

Also,

To think truth. Regardless of appearances.

To know truth may  catapult you to the moon. To embody truth and you爉ay ride on the milky way...

That's alright Mansairaku.  

Sure some times knowing what people did to us not only sadden us but can be very hurtful to..........sometime the hurt is so deep, the dissapointment so frofound that there can be no other recourse but to part ways. This can happen between friends or partners. I have learned to look for the TRUTH beyond what they'd done i.e. why they'd done it. Understanding the situation I believe is a step towards the 'release'. That may not even mean that we would reconcile and live happily ever after. Some people may agree that there are irreconciliable differences and then agree to part ways. Even then we can release ourselves instead of hanging on to an impossible hope. Sometime we just need to know what happens  to release us from  anxiety, but then it may lead to hurt pulak. So that is why I feel the TRUTH lies in the WHYS. Just to share my thoughts.............

I'll agree with this one ....
knowing when to quit,.... is essential ....

hamizao

Yeah...! No matter how painful it might be sometimes.

sinalegna

if truth isn't at your favour, would keeping it a secret makes you a liar?

Agul

I guess, you're keeping a secret, not telling lies or half-truths...

Mansairaku

hamizao

I wouldn't say keeping truth to yourself  amounts to lying.

For me, truth is indeed for self consumption first. It is the self who needs to reckon with it. To tell or not to tell others is a different matter. You see, you don't need to tell others what you know or otherwise. Some things are just your own business, confidential and only you are beholden to it.

what matters is, there will always be another person who doesn't respect your privacy to keep things secret.

as for me, i'm very secretive and i love my privacy.
i feel uncomfortable talking about myself.
i'm very open minded and i'd make a good listener.
i seldomly initiate conversations, or telling people how i feel.
however, i find it convinient to talk by making a point. it's tiresome to endlessly nag, bable over something.  
i'm not good at small talks. by not being talkative, strangers point me out as an arrogant person.

my friendship often starts with doubt, but when people gets to know me everythings fine.
my family and mostly everyone around me keeps bugging me for not opening up my thoughts and feelings towards them; which really annoys me.

i prefer to be silent most of the time, but they constantly assume that i'm depressed.
i have my own way to relieved myself, but they find it hard to just let me be. i mean, it's not like people were going to die if i refuse to talk about myself ...

hamizao

On the contrary, sinalegna, you are saying quite a lot about yourself right now. I think this board is wonderful

I can understand why you do not like small talk. But I think once you got the right person you would open up. If I dont feel at ease with someone, I too would go on a silent mode rather than waste my time on courseless tete-a-tetes. If they be women they would usually end up gossiping!

sinalegna

thanks! you've made a point which i can agree on, finally.

sinalegna

i found it awkward to answer questons like:

-how's work/school?
-how's your study?
-how was the trip?
-how do you feel?
-what do you think of the person?
-which one suits me best?

Mansairaku

these are also called ..."courtesy greeting questions" (?)

Agul

How about just smiling?
