Sincere Apologies

To the one or 2 souls who keep abreast with my postings, sorry darlings for not having the time to post anything of late. Been really tied down with looking for a house. Property prices are like WOW!!SKY HIGH is the phrase!!!!

There's always this bugging question in me....are the biological differences in man and woman the root cause of ALL misuderstandings that arise between them? According to me, it's yet another lame excuse for those who do not have the time and patience to sit and talk thru things (and I have to own up of being most guilty of this). It's not as if once u understand the biology of a man (or a woman for that matter), u r struck by a bolt of lightning and ta-daaaa, u FULLY accept the person's character, views, behaviour etc!!! Sounds a teeny weeny bit (in fact downright) ridiculous, doesn't it? Just goes to show how we, the creatures with six senses, come up with SUCH justifications for our actions. No wonder the sixth sense (filled with ridiculous BUT creative juices to derive with justifications)! Ok, I know I sound like the ungrateful kind despite being bestowed upon me the privileges of a higher living being. So let me move on.

Understanding another person (regardless of whether the person is of the opposite gender or one of ur own) is to relate to that person in an emotional level (don't worry guys, I ain't a Shrink, and neither am I on my way to becoming one). This is something that I prescribe to and once I relate to someone on an emotional level, their physicality ceases to exist for me i.e to say, if someone were to come up and ask me if I find this particular friend of mine, attractive looking, I am unable to answer cos they are more than just a person with such and such physical attributes.

At the same time, being able to relate to another person on an emotional level DOESN'T mean that I wouldn't have any arguments with that person. Arguments will still arise, despite knowing full well that some topics/ issues will irritate or anger the other person. This is so because, as an individual, I am entitled to my own thoughts and feelings and I have to let it out. So I guess, that is how I come to terms with the arguments (note: arguments and NOT misunderstandings) that I have with near and dear.
