It has been quite some time now. The intrinsic motivation of
writing more seems to be slowly disappearing, as there were lesser time for
inspiration kicks in due to lesser personal time for day dreaming. Complicated
mathematic equations no longer show up as often now ever since the psychology
course takes over pre-u, until the one fine day when S:R→C sticks out from the
paper. Over the time as we grow, overcoming challenges and different perceived obstacles,
we develop our own schema in handling situations and even, the expectations. Perhaps
an easier term can be applied in here; equation. We have different formulas for
different roles which we play as, our own ways of handling difficulties and
making decision. It is a very common saying, “We are all different individuals,
who might share the similar thoughts but will never be exactly the same, both
physically and psychologically.” The ideas we have in mind, the perception we
gain through information heard and the little thoughts intervening in between
are formulated in a way, but also vulnerable toward influences at the same
time. One person’s solution may not be as effective when applied to another
individual and certainly, we cannot simply force someone to accept and follow
whatever we think is the best, though many still do without them knowing,
including the person who typed this entry. Personally, it is our choice whether
to apply other people’s formula into selves in which we may not be satisfied
with or, to come up with our very own equation over time, for various settings
and purposes. When we find alien formula unfits, just leave it aside and figure
a better one because it is simply an example and guidance, but never the
must-do in our lives. It is our choice indeed.
