What if......

There is a lot of what if in my life, such as what if I didn't come to australia? What if I didn't study nursing? What if I won 1 million lotto ticket? What if I choose to become another person and not the person that I am now? What if I didn't do this? What if i did that?

What if is just a way to reflect on myself and to re-evaluate the value and belief of my life. Sometimes I use that question because I regret on something, but not most of the times. "What if" is quite interesting, and I manage to understand more about myself by using it. Is not the question that I ask make me understand myself, is how I figure out the intention or real feeling beneath those "what if". It might because I regret... or it might be because I make the right decision and proud of myself... or might be I am still hungry for something that I am not even aware. But no matter what it is, "what if" help me to find out a lot of answer. The effect not just help me to find out the answer, but also the make sure I won't repeat the mistake (but I do repeat anyway) again or even help me to build up more confidence on the decision that I have made!

Asking a "what if" question just like arguing with myself. I have lot of arguments with people, but most of the times are discussion. I tend to not make the discussion get into the relationship with people. However, no matter how hard I or people try not to have unhealthy argument, but it still happen. Asking "what if" is like "arguing with myself". I shared this with my friend on the other day but they couldn't understand what I were trying to say. That's not their fault because I am not the kind of person that know how to express myself accurately.

By using the method "arguing with myself", it actually help me to figure different point of view and how others would feel. I wouldn't say I can understand 100% of others' point of views or feeling, but at least I tried. This method help me to build on look at everything on different aspects, which I really love on doing this! In this way, I can cut down my frequency of having unhealthy arguments.

There is a ventriloquist named Jeff Dunham. I like his show and he is very interesting guy! He can manipulate his puppets into different personality. He has so many different kinds of puppet from young to old, stupid to clever, idiot to superhero and so on. Even though everything done in a comedic way, but I found that some of the things reflect on view point from different races, culture, age, country and so on. That's why it is so interesting to watch his show. One of his show is called "Arguing with myself" as well.

No matter what it is. "What if" is definitely a good way for me to learn stuff. However, if you don't know how to use it properly, it might end up with lot of day dreaming! Haha! Or even using "what if" to find way in order to win in a discussion... which is quite sad. By using "what if" rightly, it should be able to help us build up anything in a positive way.
