mystified

though i know very well that it’s impossible to understand a person completely, i couldn’t help but mystified at how much at lost i am sometimes when faced with someone who i thought i knew a great deal of but yet at the same time i know that i know nothing.
the norm that i live by seems so odd and strange when i observe the behaviour of some people i know. it gives a kind of peculiar feeling that i find it difficult to describe. sometimes i feel this is disturbing, perhaps because i dislike uncertainty. but other times i feel nothing, and it just seems that i got used to this kind of feeling.
i believe that everyone is unique, but i also believe that there are certain things that we share as common values. and that’s why people become friends, because they share some common values that binds them together. i wonder though, if people with such a contrasting values can be brought together. i wonder if respect, trust and acceptance are great enough to overcome the conflict between two different values.
experience has also taught me that even in a person, change is inevitable, and it often brought me such pain to see how easy it is for people to change. now i know that some changes are good, but certainly some others are not. i’m still learning to accept this.
