Questioning Whether Humans Can Change or Just Evolved

Humans are dynamic creatures. Humans are often thought to have changed, either for the better or for the worse. However, are we really changing or just evolving according to the circumstances we live in?

The fact that a person's personality can change. However, these changes stem from events that occur intensely and are meaningful to the person. That's what says these events can have an impact on a person's personality.

According to this statement, humans can not just change immediately. In this change, an event or perhaps a variable that is large enough to influence it is needed. In addition to being large, these variables must also be intense enough to be faced by the person.

Then if we do not meet these events, will we not change?

Humans may not change quickly or drastically at one time, especially by not having encountered these events. But humans can develop at any time.

A person can develop according to what is experienced in the moments he experiences. Whether to develop towards a good or vice versa, both are relative things. This development can make a person "look" to change in his daily life.

Events that a person experiences in his daily life, can be a trigger for him to develop according to what he gets at the event. The experience he feels becomes a "learning" for him, then becomes his development.

Even if there are two people who experience the same event, it doesn't necessarily mean that they develop in the same direction. This is influenced by what experiences they get and how they respond to these experiences.

Of course, we can also feel this in our daily lives. Like we are doing an activity, then see or experience a "small" event but develop us indirectly.

Like if someone is jogging around the area of ​​his house. He may meet a mother who is a parking attendant, a human “cart”, or a group of small children laughing at the dislodged soles of their shoes.

Maybe for some people, these three events could be "wind of the past" without any meaning. But for the person, these three things can add to his point of view of something.

It could be that seeing a mother who is parking becomes something meaningful to him. This is related to the struggle in living life, so as not to give up on circumstances, or the struggle of a woman for her family.

Seeing the human struggle "cart" as a process of living life in which everyone will have their own "struggle area". Being able to see that person's struggle and not giving up on the situation is something he might not get if he just chooses to lie down on his bed.

Furthermore, dealing with hordes of "netizens" in the real world can also be an experience. The group of small children he met when his shoes were damaged, asked about the condition of his shoes, and soon laughed at him was an experience that he could also understand.

This is related to the similarity of the little boy with netizens. The difference is only in the tools and places where they comment obliquely to people they have never even met. Sad isn't it?

But again, the meaning of each person can be different and this means that everyone has their own way of developing. By interpreting the things that we go through everyday, it doesn't need a big or intense event to change us, even with small events we can still develop little by little towards a better direction.

In the end, humans are not immutable, but need "something" to trigger it. On the other hand, humans will tend to develop little by little according to the basis they already have, through the meaning of the daily events that they go through.

Therefore, strengthen our foundation and then develop daily in the direction that we think is good and right.
