i don't think we should ever let anyone dictate our lives for us. there is a difference between respect and piety, and letting someone completely run your life. no one, not even your parents can decide your future for you, much less a person who's not even related to you. if you let most, if not all the decisions in your life be influenced by someone's opinion, then you're not really living. if you had a chance to learn new stuff and gain exposure, but was disapproved of by someone close to you; between placating that someone and improving yourself to have an edge over others in your future profession, which would you pick? i think it's selfish to prevent others from learning as much as they can, even if you think that it's not really decent, or that we are all still too immature, etc etc. everyone has a right to learn and a right to choose, and a right to think for themselves. i myself wasn't exactly comfortable with the learning method, but it is neccessary, because we cannot stay so close-minded forever, like a damned frog in the well. if this is a good way for me to gain the experience and the knowledge necessary to survive in the future, then i will do it, even if my parents or whoever thinks that it's too early. "too early/young/immature" isn't an excuse. the more you get exposed, the better you'll see in the end. it's a dog-eat-dog world out there, if you stagnate, you will fall to the bottom. if you have made your choice to be like that, then so be it. if you have other methods of improving, then i'm fine with it, as long as i actually see the improvement. although right now, i'm not really seeing anything at all. i'm trying really hard to stay neutral here, but it is FRIGGIN' difficult for me. so i hope you understand what i'm getting at here, and i'm sorry if i'm being too frank/harsh. been bottling this up for a while now. and just for the record, this is entirely my own opinion based on what i've heard and seen for myself. if i'm getting the wrong picture here, then ohkay, i'm getting the wrong picture, tough for me. but if i'm not.. 'nuff said. the world isn't painted in blackandwhite. i'm glad we got this through. |

Just your average human specimen wanting to be something more. Also has an absurd fondness for potatoes and shoes, among other things.
