Duh-lusions

”Perceptions and opinions are always one sided.. which by itself, a delusion“
(Re-quoted by my friend Aika)

Daily accumulation of knowledge and facts adds a bonus point to the smarty pile of our brain. Unfortunately, it also pretty much adds up delusions and self pride.

Its good to be smart, but when it goes overboard and becomes cocky, overly strong perceptions and opinions, it's not healthy anymore. "The more you listen, the more you learn." When one no longer believes in other people's words but his own, then that person will be rather one sided and delusional.

Confidence is very important.
But confidence without humbleness and eagerness to learn, is nothing but a stuck-up attitude.


So...if you can free yourself from delusions, then you can prevent the brutal awakeing of cruel truth.

when a person gets past a certain smart.. he becomes wise, a wise person is seldom cocky.. vise versa for smart.. part of growing old i guess ^^ we just have to put up with cocky people because we're wiser.
