I’m a social scientist. That doesn’t mean I see the world as one big laboratory, but just that I think people are generally rats – just kidding!!! Ok seriously though, I’m a sociologist and as anyone with a PhD can tell you, you become programmed to analyse everything, not just society, but yourself, your relationships and your life. People often tell me I think too much and I guess it’s an occupational hazard.
For years I’d way up the pros and cons of so many situations I should have known better to avoid, without all the deliberation. Until one day it was pointed out to me that I could justify almost anything to myself for a particular moment in time. It made me take a step back and wonder why I was often so hell bent on being so destructive to myself and why I would wrap potentially damaging situations up with a nice bow, arguing on its behalf, even though I was aware of both sides to the argument, including the negative!
I think it was at that point that I made a choice, and that choice was iman (faith). So my blogs may not be the most inspirational, and often I’m sure it’s just about me muddling through, but I hope you find my tangents of some interest!
