Appearances Part 1
The First Impression
Appearances are very interesting. Often we see what is right in front of us and think that that is all there is. We see something or someone we assume the way they are at the time is the way they will always be or the way that they always are. Rarley do people think that what they see isent the full person. We may see someone acting extremly rude to someone else at a restaraunt or at a movie or some other public place and we assume that that person is a jack ass or and idiot and thats the end to it. We don't think "hmm what did the other person do to maybe deserve that?" What we automatically see hear etc is what we take to be all that there is. When we first meet someone we think "I hope I make a good impression on them" or "a first impression is a lasting impression." When you first meet someone you judge them we all judge them based on what they look like how they act how they talk and how they stand sit or whatever. If someone doesn't seem to interested in this first meeting often they are branded idiotic rude or just a plan jack ass. But why do we assume that this person cares two hoots about us anyways? And why do we assume that this person is a jack ass just because they don't shake our hand or say what we want them to say or react the way we want them to? First immpressions suck. They don't show the person as a whole. They don't show what the person is like 24-7 and they are rated far too high on the social importance list. Our first impressions of people are always flawed. It is unfortunate but true. Rarley do we think about what we are not seeing during a first impression it is always what we are. Tommorrow appearances part 2.
