Do you believe that people can change?

[Saddo]

in looks yes, in personality traits no.

Andre you didn't change... things just became less funny and more offensive over time.

I dont know,is it maturity? Others have matured along with me (mates) but their attitudes havent they are the same. When you realize what a word or two can do to someone, (it can take them either way) it makes you rethink your own position.

Some people may change, or is that learning?Can you learn compassion?

No, you always had compassion... times changed and so did you

its just intelligence really.

So do you recon dudes who have done hard time then come out and are repentant and useful in society are still killers lurking? Or are we all killers that havent yet been pushed to that limit?Or a mixture of everything?

I do not believe killers should ever be set free or be alive TBH... so killers lurking.

EDIT: unless they killed out of defence of family or themselves being killed the comment above was really ment for people who killed out of perversion, crime, to prevent being caught or evil reasons

What about killers from the battlefield.

Strictly in my opinion; certain personality traits are either inherent or a product of nurture and environment quite early on in life, you only learn to manage them differently and create different circumstances to live by. I think we can all expand our awareness or increase our capacity for empathy to an extent mind you, but to truly reform who you are, hell no and who would want to.

The best examples you hear of people who "change", are usually just bearing a cross to help themselves via the same mechanism that made it necessary to change. Everyone is a product of their own experience, and people are wired to feel genuine compassion towards those they relate to. It's a shitty aspect of the human condition imo.

Why do you want to change? Whats wrong with you?

IMO anybody can do anything they want. Its all in the mindset. Just recognizing you want change means you're not a blind fool. You are aware of something wrong. However, there are moronic human beings who can't even recognize something is wrong or they flat out deny it/ even some embrace it like its the norm. I guess only people with enough brain capacity can change.

Also IMO, you can't just be one thing at all times. You gotta play your cards right. I always hated the phrase "be yourself". I think thats one of the most irresponsible advice anybody can give to anybody, especially to a youngster. There have been many occasion when if I was to be myself, I would get fired, go to jail, get shot, etc. Just play your cards right and always aware of the situation.

Now lets get back to the real topic here, what is wrong with you? What do you want to change about you?
