To question Blueprints and Updates.

I have a theory dealing with the development of human beings. I call it ''Blueprints and Updates''. In my view, blueprints are the inevitable actions, characteristics, and mannerisms of a person. These blueprints are divided into unnamed groups of similar but not entirely equal ''types'' of people in the world. For example, two people that may think the same, not in terms of the same favorite color, or same style of clothes but the same thought process or way of looking at things. The people in the same groups are more inclined to have similar talents or abilities, and the same perception. They also may find enjoyment in the same activities. Since there is a vast multitude of these blueprint groups, to count or name them would be close to impossible. The updates I referred to earlier are the uncounted events, people, and situations we are exposed to in life. Everything we experience helps shape and mold our future selves. When you meet a person that may use a certain word excessively, eventually, you begin to use that word. If you move to another state and continue to use that word people identify you with that specific word depending on how much others in the surrounding area use it. If you use that same word as much as the person you learned it from, others that you may associate with may add this word into their vocabulary unintentionally. This process is one of the main factors in the survival and spread of slang. If someone has a bad experience with a dog they may steer away from the species. As insignificant as that may be, it still changes your future. My question today is which is the larger factor in life? Are your blueprints to blame for your current position in life or the updates that follow?

To question actions and intentions.

Many things can make a person ''dangerous''. My question is who or what in this case is more dangerous? A person who's actions are considered dangerous or a person who's intentions are or could be potentially deadly? Example: On one hand there is a man who steals, fights, and generally causes trouble. His actions to those around him are considered dangerous, reckless, impulsive, things of that nature. He poses a threat because of the level of atrocities committed correct? Now on the other hand you have a man who has no record of these behaviors. He never steals, cheats, lies anything of that sort. Now the difference between the two is the second man would eliminate anyone who poses a threat to him, or anyone close to him without hesitation. Can will surpass experience in this particular situation? Who poses more of a threat? If a man will only go so far but knows all to well how to get to that point, is he more dangerous than a man who would skip the previous man's process in order to kill the threat imposed upon him? While thinking this over it should be taken into consideration that both type of men exist. As a side note; knowing this should help open eyes to the fact that reading a book by its cover depending on the type of book, can still result in a paper cut. Please give feedback on who in your opinion is worse or any examples of these types coming face to face.

To question a defense.

Everyone is born with specific defenses. When something irritates or threatens your eye, you blink. When something itches on your skin, you scratch it. When someone makes you angry or poses a threat, you first defense usually is to raise your voice. The defenses I question today are emotional. Now I'm aware of the fact that if a certain situation affects you in a negative way, you learn from it and adapt so that it may not occur again. I question why we allow dramatic events to mold our futures? For example if a young lady has one or a few bad relationships and decides men are all the same then swears off the gender for good. Can the kkk depict all Caucasians? Does Flavor Flav describe all African Americans? For another example, A 68 year old women goes out for a walk and is struck by a car. She survives the hit, but decides never to leave her home again. Does her stove not create fire? Can a car not drive through her home? My point is that there are certain things we can never escape. Pain, danger, emotional upsets are all apart of life. Since we know we cant outrun a train we don't try, so why do we work so hard to escape the inevitable? The problem seems to lie with trust. The only thing we can trust now days is that these things do and will happen. How can we live with this knowledge and still continue on? How can we defend against our defenses? Please leave answers or situations resulting in these actions for discussion.
