Our 7hrs

 Humans do surprise me, that's why I love psychology..

     I am a soon-to-be clinical psychologist. This is my third year and finally, feel that I meet good people in this field. For all the time I felt extremely lonely in the course, simply because I am a part-time student? I tried to approach my coursemate during the second semester and I did gain some friendship. Why will I took initiative to approach my coursemates? Because is not others' responsibility to make friends with you. The current society informs people to always take initiative to fight for what you want and what you deserve. "Time and tide, wait for no man." Even if there are some people who don't want to be your friend, so what? Out of 100 people, if those 100 people refuse to be your friend, that must be you are too "special", in this case, you have to reflect yourself, and this had happened in my life too. Throwback to the times when I was in primary and secondary school, boycotting was not something uncommon for me. Somehow it does not affect me from developing friendship even looking for a good partner. I believe, one can always shine bright if you did no harm. 

    I had a 7hrs session with two of my ex-coursemates which I did not expect could have such a meaningful conversation with them. Although we didn't communicate much with one another, there was too much to speak out indeed. Three of us had been through many that others don't know and yet to be able to share. The session yesterday was like.... finally we got someone to talk to and also discuss how to improve our wrongdoings. A lot of times we are too focus on striving for our goal and carelessly forgotten meaningful people around us. Many want to be successful person, but why some successful person doesn't feel happy? Often is due to loneliness, sooner becoming depressed, and some even suicide. You got money you got everything why would the person result in that way? No matter how rich or successful you are, human needs companion, because no man is an island. You will burn out no matter how powerful you are. You need someone to talk with, gain emotional support and enhance your motivation to move further. Hence, I don't reject friends, but must be quality friends. Quality friends spend precious moments with you and bring you further. 

    I'm expecting another session of us again. Wishing all the best to both of you who are almost done with practicum and ready to be a clinical psychologist!
