Strange, ain’t it?

Life is like so strange.

A lot of us have the tendency to give suggestions, provide solutions and encourage people around us with something, with the objective of helping them to solve their problems or guide them around. Then you seem to be like someone with a good analytical mind, or with lots of ideas, or seem to like understand the issue from your point of view. And so you tried to analyse and advise the best solution that you might think of.

But have you ever encountered the same thing being faced by yourself, then ended up getting lost or confused because you don’t know what to do next? Surprisingly enough, the problem might be similar to that your fren had encountered before, albeit slightly deviated but the crux of the problem is still the same.

But you feel lost. And most of the time end up not knowing what to do.

By right, since it is similar, you should know what to do since you know what to advise previously. But why is it that you can’t seem to find the answer you want?

Is it that most of the time, you can teach others what to do, but when it gets down to applying the same ‘theory’ yourself, you feel that it cannot work?

But if that is true, why have you tried to ask your fren to apply this theory when you feel that it cannot work?

Most of the time, whatever your ’solution’ could be at that moment might be derived because you feel differently at that time. And because of how you feel, your solution can be based on what you feel at that moment, which of coz might change if you feel differently again.

Then your fren who ends up ‘counselling’ you and using the same solution which you’ve provided before, might not work on you. Because it just feels at that moment to be ‘unsuitable’ for you. Contradicting, but you just feel like that.

Mindsets change, feelings change, situations change to affect other factors.

Life is ever changing.

It never stops.
