The second day of july - and its the end of a work day. I am still wondering why in pete's name am i writing my innermost thoughts on the internet. I think i know enough of it to say that its never a safe place to have anything of a private nature devouched. Especially if its concerning thoughts.. ahhh... the mind, the theories, the musing - precious, priceless.
remember how it feels to read someone's diary ? its a feeling that's filled with mysterious revelation on things that run through the mind of the person you know, or, the person you don't. Don't you find it strange - we all know that we should never be snooping around people's diary - but yet, there's this strong desire to even to take a tiny peek into it. As much as we know we shouldn't, and try as we can to stop that little demon in us that's screaming at us "READ IT !!! READ IT!!!" - we can't stop ourselves from being curious. Its this weird sensation there is to it. . . I don't know about the rest of the world, but, for me, i think i'll be really-really tempted to do so.
Do you think its human curiousity that's at play here - certainly, but why is it so tough for people to admit these "dark" thoughts in their head. Is it that important to look prudent and goodie-2-shoes ? Its strange how the world at large draw fleeting conclusions on people who have a different perspective on things.
I bet all of us are facing such temptations - to look or not to look ? Well, some of us will be able to conquer it, put the journal back and walk away... some of us wouldn't - we'll be flipping the page, hungry to know what's in it. However, for the formal - can you gurantee that by not looking, there's no regret of any sort - a secrect regret perhaps ? or, a tiny little yearning still lingering ?
Is it justifiable for that same guy who walked away to point an accusing finger at the other that looked? I think, most of us will say - "of course." But, think again, if the situation arises, will you be sure you wouldn't look ? Don't be too quick to say 'Yes' - cz, we can't really be certain of anything, aren't we ?
To those out there whose never peeked - Beware, and thread with caution, lest ye shall succumb to temptation. Do not be too quick to judge, nor be too sure of one own's integrity.
