objective or subjective

either my opinion about something or someone is objective or subjective, i have my own reason(s) that maybe other people or even the person himself/herself won't understand.

it's not easy to change people's opinion about someone, especially from the first impression they get when they meet/see the person. needless to say about bad things cos even good things might be less highlighted when they already think about him/her badly. that's why many people try to make a very good impression when they met new people, although the fake masks would worn-off eventually.

sometimes the "was/used to be" plays an important part in this. what i mean was the first impression or what they used to know about the person is important because that's where usually people start to judge/compare. for example, if someone change from bad to good, there's a big chance that people might still doubt the new-and-changed him/her because what they knew from experience was he/she was bad, so it's not that easy for people to accept and trust that person. on the other side, if someone change from good to bad, they would feel that it's too bad that he/she become a bad person because that he/she was a good person.


i personally often doubt that people could change from bad to good because surely the other way around is more likely to happen. i'm not judging that it's impossible because i still think that it could happend.

confused? nvm, this is just something that crossed my mind when the topic came out earlier.
