Impressions

75 …
From personal experiences, you could learn that first impressions do not really always last.  When you make judgments of people from first impressions, you almost get surprised by the untruthful results of those impressions.  When you entertain a notion about a situation you believe you understood, you almost immediately get proven wrongly.  We are not sure what exactly prods us to make biased opinions of people, and situations.  We seem to keep reacting based on how things superficially affect us, and we never ever have the time and space for facts to come out that could guide our determinations.   We could learn from tried and tested approaches that sensitive listening and paced, critical thinking contribute to bring about positive impressions in our present and future life awareness.
