Have you ever wondered how much you have changed and matured subconsciouly over time? I am talking about character, attitude, behaviour and blah blah. Likewise, your inner self. Your inner self or your 'soul' is what i believe puppeted your body. Without it, you are just a plain woodblock without any movements or feelings and character. Let's not go too deep analysising and discussing about that theoretical nonsense here.
My point is that, it is not easy realising your change in attitude and character in view of the fact that it is part of growing up and we subconsciouly do it. We don't change drastically, in which you woke up one day to a completely different person, I believe we change slowly over time. Sadly, there are no instruments or tools to measure that change. What you need is just one person (whom knew you for a long period of time) to tell you off. That's when everything around you just stops and there you go, into your deep thoughts.
Some change for the better while some for the worst. All dependable on this core contributing factors, social circle and yeah, your own self. You tend to get influenced by your peers, family members and the society around you. How much time you spend with them, determine how easily you are picking up bits of their character/behaviour. If you hang around with bunch of civilized people, then congratulations to you, likewise if you hang around with barbaric people, then sucks for you. That is why prior to what i said, one of the core factor that change you is your own self.
I, myself at times struggle to spot the change until my friends for 7 years or my mom to tell me off, in which most of it are unplesant to my own ears. I don't blame anyone or anything for the change, i blame myself.
Okay moving on, unlike behaviour and character which are imperceptible, looks/appearance are more blatant. I believe, everyone started of being nerds/geeks and as we grow up, some remain a geek while most trying their best to look good. And if possible, be the limelight of the society.
And yes! I change too. I am vainer now where looks and appearance are my utmost priority in life. How I wish, i was like before, couldn't careless about anything. I've said enough, hope you people get my drift. I'll end this post with 2 pictures of me before I think i've changed. Spot me!
