"Napaka-plastic mo naman!" is a phrase or sentence that often fly around these days.
Let's face it, its true! People are becoming worse by the minute.
Plasticity, what is it?
It is when you show you're friends fake kindness ..
As though nothing's wrong.
Nothing to worry or talk about .
As though everything's alright.
You are trying to hide the truth abouth someone when you are being plastic.
The truth he/she has every right to know.
Everyone had been "plastic" more than twice in their lives ..
in fact, this plasticity is a human nature ..
it has been latched to the very soul of every human being ..
hidden, unseen to the world ..
Like crab mentality ..
it's everywhere..
in school, at home, in the community ..
everywhere you look at
its there, in our hearts ..
silent and unmoving ..
but acting ..
according to what was laid for it ..
nagsimula un when we were young ..
yung simpleng asaran ..
ung panunuksong "mataba" "panget" "payat" etc.
its d most innocent and simple nature of crab mentality .
unknown to us,
it is always der ..
tinutukso ntin ang ibang tao to make ourselves elated ..
to prove that we are greater, worthier ..
just masked by our innocence ..
but it's der ..
EVERYWHERE
second human nature is FAVORiTiSM ..
this stupidity is rotting deep within us ..
in our inner self
not just in our very soul ..
but its part of our soul as well ..
circulating our life veins ..
running through our very blood ..
lahat tau may favoritism ..
ung iba, d lng pinapakita ..
di pinapahalata ..
kxe, dey are matured enough to accept the fact that nobody wants people with favoritism .. :)
another inexplainable thing in humans is FAKE HUMiLiTY (did i use d right term)
FAKE HUMBLENESS ..
we are all elated when we hear praise, we know dat ..
so why deny ??
bqet kelangan p sabihin n "d nuh!" or "weh!?"
its d people's view of you ..
fake humbleness sometimes results to low self-esteem ..
and sometimes, it can be pretty disgusting ..
"ikaw lng ang pupuri sa sarili mo"
y0u are the best-est friend you can have for urself.
and .. if the whole world is against you, the strongest person present to defend you is urself ..
so, kung mababa self-esteem muh ..
inalis muh n ung shield muh
ung sandalan muh
pinatay muh n ung best-est friend muh ..
another prominent human nature is
the will to change constantly ..
not for yourself,
but to please everybody ..
nobody will be satisfied with every change you do ..
dey will never be satisfied till you die ..
ang makikita lng ng tao sau is ung bad side muh ..
dey wouldn't appreciate wat you are doing for them ..
so don't bother ..
change is constant ..
bcoz people like to please everyone constantly ..
change for yourself ..
love yourself ..
and think first ..
"am i gonna change for myself?"
or "am i gonna change so that they would like me more?"
there are a lot of things in this world ..
a few of which i understand fully ..
some of which are still unclear ..
and a LOT of which i neither understand nor do i want to ever understand ..
our world is beautiful as it is ..
with it's mystery hanging around ..
i myself am guilty of this article ..
i admit, i'm a pessisimist ..
in a way that when i look at a thing, the first i saw is its inner content on the negative side ..
i always fail to notice the beauty of something ..
but once i noticed it, i use it to try and adapt to the thing's negative nature ..
yin and yang, the balance of nature ..
good and evil ..
but if you would look closely,
darkness has overwhelmed it secretly ..
why ??
what's the color of the outline of the circle ?
BLACK which symbolizes DARKNESS
it is a great facade ..
an unnoticed one ..
masked ..
bcoz people look only at what's inside the barrier ..
they forget ..
that to be able to see the inside,
you'll have to penetrate the barrier first ..
i d0nt say i kn0w the w0rld m0re than anyone d0es ..
i just say what i want t0 say ..
it's my right ..
isn't it ?
