Others Perspections!

When you have spent a lot of your time in wonder at how another person could have worked you out so quickly and then for that to be dashed in a single moment, is truly a lesson, and one that should definetly be learnt and noticed.

Many a time it is people's own projection that causes them to make assumptions of another. It is also others inablility to see anything else but their own point of view, to be aware that others can think, function and act differently then themsleves. At the same time that is all we have a lot of the time, is own perspection on a situation, anothers actions or communcation. Certain words or sentances can mean something completely different to another then yourself, hence why I believe it is important to ask as much as you can. It is a difficult thing to asertain whether somebodies response is the truth, however your intuition should be enough for that. Otherwise you just have to take somebody at their word and hope that their actions end up backing it up. Interaction with others is never an easy thing, but that is the adventure of it, that is what keeps us interested, that is what keeps things from becoming stagnant, it is all part of growth and that in its self is wonderous!

Tonight I had assumptions made about me, and some of them I can't argue with, however there were many that I could. I had trusted that this person would trust my words as I haven't been so openly honest with another ever, and I had hoped that particular person would realise that, as I had said it before. However how is another to know where you have come from and your previous actions, all they have to go on is who they are faced with now, and that in its self can be distorting as there is no reference point. Even though I had hoped that my actions had communicate this simple fact, obviously it hadn't been enough, or I shouldn't take this so personally as it might be something that they have to face, something that has arisen for them that is only personal to them and nothing really to do with me, as I was only the catalyst.
Evreybody makes mistakes, should they be held accountable for them, to bloody right! However should that leave a taint on the realtionship, I think not, it should be approached, spoken about and then left in the past where it belongs. If these said things happen on a regular basis that of course is a different matter to be addressed at the moment. To truly forgive means that it is forgotten, it is of no futher consequence, the lesson has left an imprint, but the teaching has been left behind.

These moments as all about learning the workings of another and those roads aren't always smooth, hardly ever smooth if truth be told. There are twist, turns, bumps and sometimes huge pitfalls. Then what happens? We pick ourselves up and dust ourselves down, and think whether this is worth the brusies, and hopefully it is, and if not then we just turn in the other direction and thank that road for all the strength that it has given us and move on with the imprints. This is what shapes us.
