Perceiving people

If we do give a pause and think how people can be different I can give you one that I scrambleed so far. People can be perceived as of two types: One to the point rational like Seldon cooper in ' big-bang-theory ' and yet he is somewhat emotional in his own way when it comes to his nerdy science. Another kind of people who are emotional and cannot hide it are like Mr. Bean who cannot stop showing to the world what he feels which is highly amusing. People are not in general either emotional or rational, the thing is one of these characteristics are seen to be dominant from person to person and situation to situation that a person faces individually or in groups. For e.g when someone near to us dies we cannot help but think the most negative conversation or remarks that we have said to each other and most of us eventually blame ourselves for his/her death.

Learning from pain

(PC:  https://www.artmajeur.com/en/wojtekbabski/artworks/8673676/pain ) Pain is a great teacher. It teaches that anything extreme is not good, for both our mind as well as our body. If I take the example of intense training after a long gap, then it is obvious that after some hours or a day after, we feel the muscle starting to feel sore as well as painful. Likewise, in exams when we try to cram our brain with information a day or two before, the brain goes into overload and we cannot remember all the facts though how much we try hard. It is so in my experience and I do think we can learn greatly about our own limitations from pain and slowly go beyond them by exposing ourselves to pain little at a time. Pain is not kind like almost everything in the life that we experience. With this I conclude with the thought "without pain there's no gain"
