The Virtual World..

Would you for once serious of a friend whom you met over the net, someone whom you have no common connection through a mutual friend?

I mean we shouldn’t labelled all people over the internet as faked, I believe there are still people who genuinely wants to expand their circle and make more new friends.

Well to a certain extend, I am still skeptical of such friends over the virtual world. I mean, they suddenly popped up, tell you how they found you over millions millions of profiles online. Hmmm…. Fate? Coincidence?

For a start, they will aggressively sms, email or whatever forms of contacts, then after a while, they seemed to slowly disappeared into the thin air, left without a trace. Should I not be skeptical in the first place? Or should I say what is their intention in the first place? I still believe friendship takes time to build it on, take efforts to let it last.

It’s up to you to believe or should believe.

One who told me if I’m skeptical towards something, I will never never going to believe in it even if it is real. I should let go of my skeptical thoughts in order to allow something to happen. Well, should I?

I think It makes some sense though – let just say if you have bad experience once, that doesn’t mean you will and always encounter the bad experience, is that right? But being humans, when we fell and hurt ourselves, we remembered the pain and we have the phobia to try again even though we are not sure if we are going to get hurt again, we are just chicken, afraid to try again. Keeping in mind that we once fail.

There are always two sides of story but we failed to see the other side of story. Holding on tightly to the bad experiences will make you lose out more in the good things that are coming along the way. We may not fall or hurt ourselves even though how much we think we are. Why not just let go of all the bad experiences and accept the good things with open arms? Even if it still failed, at least I had given it a chance to happen, by being fair.

Well it’s a risk that is to be taken.

Whatever it is, it’s your judgment call.
