The Argument And The Ego
What is an argument really? I feel that it is nothing more than a difference of opinion. When 2 (or more) people cannot come to a consensus, thats an argument right there.
Arguments can be pretty dangerous. Arguments can wreck lives. Arguments can devour entire nations. All because arguments have the ability to turn love into hate.
Arguments can be sorted out if one of the two members involved is ready to change his mind; ready to change his opinion. But aaha!! That is where the ego comes in. The ego (or is it the superego I'm not too sure) makes sure that the argument lives on, grows into its full destructive nature, causes as much damage as possible. But what is interesting is - that instead of one member conceding defeat, it is now both parties who lose.
The Mind is a wonderful creation indeed!!!

Hiya,
I was blog-hopping. Had been to your blog before though because i read a post written by Mizfit about your meeting in a Barista next to IIT Delhi...But didn't make any comments..
Shall take time to read your posts and wouldn't miss to tell you what I think about your posts.

GHB:
arguments...!!?!!
nice one there.
Very true both are losers in the end.
but as Neil.DC says...i agree
If an argument has one humble person, we find a solution to the argument(problem). Humbleness is a virtue and rare to find.

now tht we've met, im commenting as a blogger.But can't arguments be sorted out if both stick to their own stand and yet respect other's?not necessarily loose.if everyone think's alike we'd have stopped in the BC's.
-- to the unknown this is PK.

Better to have arguments than a big cold silence. A dialogue may lead to an argument which eventually may end in a fight. But it is better to let what you think to the other person and better to know what the other person thinks. I believe in the 'dialogue'...You start a dialogue and the other person doesn't agree with you...arguments start!!!
Did you know that if a couple doesn't have any 'arguements' in their relationship, it is not a healthy couple?

Dear GHB,
How about agreeing to disagree? That way, you acknowledge that no two people think the same way, but it is also possible to live in harmony nevertheless.

The bright side:
**Arguments are the source of new inventions. had Einstein not argued Newton's theory of gravitation, Relativity would not have been there.
**arguments bring out the true person. they make u realise no one's perfect, yet has perfection in smthing or the other.
( Give it a thought).
