Given a chance I’d take a side job of being a therapist or
psychiatrist/psychologist (whichever doesn’t involve thousand years in college
and really huge books. I’d love to know how people think, why they do what they
are doing even when they do not know it themselves.
Don’t you think it’s so much fun being able to tell almost exactly
what is going on in people’s minds? Almost magical. Innit? I bet you have
stumbled upon this phrase if you are on a social site or not too busy to notice
but if you haven’t it says “Don’t you think it would be a better
world if we could just Google what people felt and thought about us?” I’ll be more than thrilled the day I magically start hearing what people are
thinking. Like Mel Gibson in ‘what women want’ But that will happen just when Santa exists
and visit’s Africa. Well, let’s focus on what is attainable.
At some
point in my high school life I was a peer counsellor and somehow I managed to
give advice. Frequently. No, I didn’t have an office and no I wasn’t ‘little
miss perfect’ but I could talk people into and out of some things. I couldn’t
read minds but I bet being a woman, my guts helped in sensing and solving those
problems. Somehow. Have you ever found how easy giving advice is, and you
cannot follow the exact advice to save your soul from tears and teeth gnashing?
Well, that’s
the world for us. I have had enough falls, troubles and mistakes to last me and
my forthcoming lineages. It’s time i learnt. And helped people see the
stumbles. Someone once made a joke: why
would you repeat a mistake when there’s plenty waiting to be explored?
Makes so much sense. After watching ‘necessary
roughness’ I fell in love with Dr.Santino’s job. It feels great helping
people out. For me at least. That’s when my desires to be a therapist came
back.
P.S
I don’t
believe in shouting at children or canning them unless it’s gone overboard.
Teachers, parents and guardians should really work on talking to them. It’s a
good thing when people get their goals straight from when they are really
young. It helps people develop self-esteem and the world will be a better
place. Don’t you think? Go out and preach if you agree. ;)
