On Personality

It seems that the Johari window is catching fire nowadays. And no! Having a Johari window is definitely not narcissistic behaviour. I m rather surprised though that some 'friends' found that my Johari window selection too limited... And surprised too to learn that my friend studied the Johari window as part of some module... Anyway, just go get the window yourself at http://kevan.org/johari and see how aware you are of yourself.

I will take this chance to promote the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) test too. Take the free (best) test at www.humanmetrics.com. Get your 4-alphabet personality from your results and read the descriptions at www.typelogic.com; www.personalitypage.com (best); www.bestfittype.com; and www.keirsey.com (not accurate). I was shocked at how accurate the results were for me. I rate the descriptions at around 80% accurate for me. If anyone needs help understanding their 4-alphabets, look for me! Think I m getting obsessed with personality analysis...

By the way, my MBTI result: ENTP (Inventor/Explorer/Visionary)

Quote of the Day
The meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemical substances: if there is any reaction, both are transformed.
-Carl Jung

On Change of Voice

After some feedback from readers, the 'iconoclastic boy' has decided to revert back using 'I' to avoid causing further irritation to current and potential readers alike...

Quote of the Night
The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation. What is called resignation is confirmed desperation.
-Henry David Thoreau

暧昧

暧昧让人受尽委屈
找不到相爱的证据
何时该前进 何时该放弃
连拥抱都没有勇气

只能陪你到这里
毕竟有些事不可以
超过了友情 还得不到爱情
远方就要下雨的风景

到底该不该哭泣
想太多 是我还是你
我很不服气 也开始怀疑
眼前的人是不是同一个真实的你

暧昧让人受尽委屈
找不到相爱的证据
何时该前进
何时该放弃
连拥抱都没有勇气

暧昧让人变得贪心
直到等待失去意义
无奈我和你
写不出结局
放遗憾的美丽
停在这里

On Religion

The Religion Test at Tickle says that his religion is 'unitarian universalism'. Kinda cool huh. Results show that he is attracted to a religion that tolerates mixed beliefs about the existence of God and upholds the idea that there is something to be learned from every religion. He is open to a wide variety of religious and spiritual ideas. He is attracted to spiritual groups that are composed of typically open-minded and intellectual people who actively engage in individual exploration of many different spiritual truths.

A visit to the church on Sunday has still left many burning questions unanswered. He is for now unconvinced that the Bible is anything more than a fairytale, but he concedes that there is only so much a human brain can comprehend using logic. It's back to the issue of faith vs logic. The iconoclastic boy has always based his perceptions on logic. Where faith is present, it's merely faith in his logic, reagardless of its inherent limits. His perception of life over the past 21 years has been based on his 'invented' religion/philosphy that comes from studying science, maths, life experiences and a bit of reading on philosophy and major religions. A relatively unpolished philosophy/religion he thinks, but he is satisfied. What happens in the future he leaves it up to fate. There is only 1 thing he believes in now, and it's fate...

Quote of the Day
I am satisfied with the mystery of life's eternity and with a knowledge, a sense, of the marvelous structure of existence— as well as the humble attempt to understand even a tiny portion of the Reason that manifests itself in nature.
-Albert Einstein
