MISCONCEPTION..
M.I.S.C.O.N.C.E.P.T.I.O.N… hmm.. interesting topic hey.. That’s what i want to discuss on this blog entry as recently, I’ve come across to many people who have a very strong misconception.. and it just wonder me.. that after being proven, he/she seems to be soo dazzled..
Well, the thesaurus defined misconception as .. "a failure to understand correctly: false impression, misapprehension, misinterpretation or misunderstand". It can also mean a wrong idea or a mistaken thought.
A misconception happens when a person believes in a concept that is objectively false. I guess everybody will always have a misconception to another person that he/she doesnt really know well (or well for this instance).. It’s like saying, judging the book by it’s cover. You see, as a human being, it’s very natural to always have a false impression on another person. We tend to judge people by their look, their status etc.. but not so much by their characters and personalities. Unless solidly proof, one will never believe the others by just a mere conversation.
There are a few people that I know who stand by their own misconception unless the fact is seen. And the fact that those people realise that all these time they were having a misconception on the other person shocked them very much. It’s like a disbelief that lingered on their mind for quite a while and like a fact that is hard to be accepted. It’s like waking up and seeing the world for the first time and realising that the world is indeed round than square.. Funny isn’t it that somehow we become a distrusting human beings that need to be shove the facts in our face before we can truly believe it. But I guess it’s not so bad as there are too many con artists out there.. and it’s always wiser not to be so trusty now a days.
Even by saying so, I think we all should never jump straight to the conclusion by judging the book by it’s cover. Read it and finish reading before you can pass comment……..
