My connect group leader asked me that today. The question still plays in my mind, why am I so critical. So far there is no one 100% answer that I can give. I am still wondering though what makes me so critical.
To start with, friends. Friend, a person whom u know and share a similar bond in things that you do and spend time to get to know one another and a person whom you can rely on in times of trouble. Thats probably the meaning of a friend to me. To further add a friend to me is a person whom I can trust my life with and know that in times of trouble I will never fail him or her. However I am still human and yes I have failed my friends before, my best friend can testify to that as there were times when I skipped out on him when he needed to talk to me or to share a problem. That makes me think more of what I need to do about our friendship rather than to not bother about it. So when it comes to friends theres not many whom I can truly call a friend. If you were a friend of mine, we’d be sitting in jail together asking ourselves where did we screw up. Thats probably why I’m critical in this area.
My studies, sciences is something that has fascinated me all along. In my subjects and lectures I was thought to be critical and to evaluate anything in particular and also to ask and seek more before I make a conclusion or carry out an action. The basis of any scientific theory or experiment is the reading and also the information that is available out there that can be gathered and read upon in order to find out about a certain subject or before hand in order to carry out and experiment. Without the academic literature to support what is being done it probably will not be accepted due to the fact that its being done without the proper reasons as to why it is being done. Good backing in the experiment and also the proper information to support it will definitely get me to where I am heading.
Shopping, the lowest price beats the rest. Its not everyday that I go out and buy something like for instance, its been playing in my mind. Razer has come out with a new mouse called the Lacesis and its a 4000 dots per inch (DPI) mouse. In comparison to my Razer Copperhead its much more superior. The question that I have in my mind is that is it more comfortable based on the design that I have seen. Rather than the rubber strips that the Copperhead has. The price tag? A good £51 including delivery. In terms of ergonomics it looks better than the Copperhead but the question I am asking myself critically is that is it practical to get another one since the current one will last me for a very long time. So here I have to decided the points on whether its worth to get the new one and spend the money which is being saved up here. Hard choice to make and there were a few times when I decided no, in fact its been a no all this while since the old one is good enough and will last for a long time.
In general people usually take things at face value and say alright this is how it is and this is how it will be unless something about changes and shows us something new. The result is people will go “I never knew that,” which is something that rarely happens to me and I do dislike it. If I meet a person for the first time I will analyze him or her depending on whether I want to or not. Reading people like a book is something that I probably picked up along the way in life. It makes me judgmental which is bad. Jumping straight to a conclusion is never right as the person might have a twist to them in the end. I can see the possibilities and the probabilities of what might happen to a person depending on how I read them and see through them. I tend to close one eye but when somebody starts telling me about the bad things then I open the other eye and start to further understand and the information starts to flow into me. It is probably there for a purpose which God has given me to understand that if I do not do this for Him I’ll end up in a bad way. Likewise it has become a double edge sword to me. Like my dad says I can track and know where people are and what they are doing given on the basis that I do know some of their usual habits.
The way I think. A very in depth way of thinking. From my blog posts my youth pastor from Banting once told me in order to read and understand what you have posted you have to be of a certain intellectual level. Like today’s post which will be of thought and the way some people look at life. I tend to go further and delve into the realm of imagination in order to think further of things what might be done what can be done and so on. Its not just a passing thought to me, its something that no matter how small it is, when manipulated right will help others but when used wrongly brings pain. So no issue is a small one, every matter and thought takes a certain precedence and weight to it.
So yes I am critical in my way of thinking and perceiving the world around me. I look at things from many angles and from there mould a world around it and it will take its own form as an entity unto its own self.
