We are but a package of the entire grand plan. We associate ourselves with the eternal surroundings, in hopes of trying to fit in with the crowd, so that we do not become different. We fear the difference that may surround us, distinguishing us from what many people call the norm. We evidently tell ourselves things have to be done in this nature of norm, because we believe it is the only best way of doing it. We are creatures of habit, we see a change in routine as a mere discourse and a conflict to our lives. We love being spoken to in a certain way, while discarding those who we believe are in line to endanger our well being.

We grow emotional attachments to what we own and have been using for some time because it has brought us luck, achievement or even savior. Be it biological or mechanical, emotional attachments and baggages are what we hold on to, to make us feel more human everyday. But to that extent, we hold ourselves from making key critical decisions because of our emotional judgment, for that are we doing the right thing?

We let people know of our emotional attachments, as though we have trust in others that they would help us carry on the legacy as they move on in their life. We let people be known to our emotional weaknesses just because they are of closer nature to us all. But personality is an element of inner pride which when tempered with, only gets no one any further than the starting line. Then comes internal retaliation and emotional conflict once again. That's normal, that's the way of our lives, so if you wish to avoid it, you should attempt to extensively conform to what the other party believes in, rather than trying to change a mentality, just because it is superior to you.

That is the problem today. Many people have different ideologies and everybody is trying to influence others one way or another. I guess it is the method of conveying it rather than trying to force it upon another, hoping that your age and seniority will make a difference. Things change, and sometimes a pre-mental personality is often falsely built on, probably due to personal encounters and mistaken experiences that would cause one to develop a tough rambo image of what is to be. In fact, things are rather simpler than what was imagined. Stop and think about how many times you've tried to convince someone about your personal encounters, but in time to come, that very person came back and told you; "hey, it isn't that bad after all".

My brother's emotional attachment to the home vehicle cannot be further elaborated but if one were to say or speak their mind about his unorthodox yet complicated obsession about retaining this fixed asset, it would not go anywhere because he has this personality which no one can easily shape or influence. He believes that his superiority and toughness faced in reality has gotten him that degree of respect which he deserves. Yet, I would say his life has never been any easier due to his lack of emotional quo. He has gotten the very worse of everything parcel in life, which has caused him to become a pessimistic fellow of his age with no network relationships.

I kind of feel for him, in a way that sometimes i hesitate to even open my mouth. You know the most difficult part in every conversation is not about speaking your mind, is about NOT trying to speak your mind. You have this burst of energy and ideas that you would like to share with the whole bloody world but come to think of it again, what are the consequences if you speak your mind? That has always stopped me from trying to continue a conversation with him because i feel his perception of knowledge superiority will eventually outrage me and thus leaving me with the shorter end of the stick. No one loves to get the shorter end, we are all but beings of the society who learns by association and past behaviors. Our disagreements have always been there since young, and he still had the guts to call the police on me. That is something which I will never forget, even in the face of countless monetary transactions.

Thus, I often just agree to his deceptive mind while retaining that bit of my own sanity. For a person who has made many mistakes in life, he has yet to change his way of mentality. If your information is always of superiority, but why do you still make that many mistakes in life? The lack of emotional negotiation and stress management have always been his issue in life, thus a weakness which many would easily access and conquer.

I cannot stress any further on his emotional baggage with this vehicle at home but I guess, I don't really even want to start on the cost-benefit analysis. Let's leave it as it is and maybe someday when frostdude becomes famous, he can read this and finally understand how/what i actually think about him.

"Do we all attach ourself emotionally to the things around us? That does make us a little bit more human after all." - frostdude
