the other day i had an interesting conversation with a friend of mine
we were talking about first impressions
and how he had his first impression about me
he said that "first impressions can be subject to be false and some time true"
he carried on to talk about what he thought when he saw me
"and when i first saw you i thought you weren't the type of person who can carry out
a conversation, or who could be a knowledgeable person"
aside from what he said, i never realized how true
this can be until i have been in such situation
recently i met personally a public figure who was
quite popular locally
the first impression i got personally was when i saw him
in an event and i concluded as a first impression that he was
a bit too much and a bit over acting since he was the host of the event
of course that was a very long time ago
and may how the tables turn and how events of life unfold as you go further
i got the privilege "and i will admit it was such an honor"
to meet up with him and to talk personally (one on one)
with him
at that first situation i was only a spectator
but now i got the chance to see the other personal side
that no one sees !
i will have to admit
First impressions can be false !!!
that is what i have learned
we surely don't know much, thus we sometimes tend to be too judgmental
and at time we can be a bit unfair towards people who we meet at first
and who leave quite of an impression towards us
but one thing for sure,
there is always another chance
as i got the chance to change how i saw the matter
and again first impressions can be wrong
like what my friend said in the beginning of this article
and PS ...
i owe you a first impression =D
