. 做自己的主人 或 成自己的奴役 Be my own master Translation: Berber @berbermnm . 只因為喜歡而喜歡 也只為討厭而討厭 . 大部分的時候 我們不過是依據成見表達想法罷了 遑論客觀公正 因為自己喜歡 所以我百般看他的優點 因為自己討厭 所以我專門挑他的缺點 一樣的事件發生 一樣的行為特質 我們可以任意從正面或負面的形容詞中 挑出一個恰當的詞語 特別注意 需先依據成見 選定「正面」或「負面」 那就能萬無一失地保持成見 . 討厭的人是雞婆 喜歡的人是熱心 討厭的人是憨呆 喜歡的人是可愛 固執與堅毅 濫情與多情 杞人憂天與多愁善感 陽光是刺眼還是溫暖？ 雨水是氾濫還是甘霖？ . 對於特定人事物的成見如何形成的尚不重要 重新審視這人事物時是否能開放心態才重要 如果「我」是心靈 智慧 理性的稱呼 而「自己」代表肉體 本性 成見 情緒化 那「我是自己的主人 抑或是自己的奴役呢？」 . We like something because we feel positive about it. We hate something because we are negative about it. Prejudice is formed. . More often than not, our opinions are influenced by our prejudices. These are our subjective feelings. When we like someone, we can find countless merits in him. However, when someone gets on our wrong side, all we can see are his faults. We can have different angles on the same matter and the same behaviour. How we comment on something depends on whether we choose, according to our prejudices, to be on the positive or negative side. . Is someone annoying or caring? Is someone a dork or is he cute? Stubborn or persevere? Is he toying with someone or is he just too blessed by Cupid? Is he a negative person or is he a sentimental? Is the sun scorching or warm? Is the rain pouring or timely? . How did we form prejudices on someone or something is not important. What matters is whether we can break our prejudices and be open-minded. If “I “ is a pronoun of the heart, wisdom and reason, while “Me” represents the body, one’s self, prejudice and emotions Do “I” be the master of “me”? Or Am “I” enslaved by “me”?
