the harmful effect of wanting to know everything quickly.



a) it becomes an obsession to know the definite answer

b) it becomes a must to find answers quickly

c)somehow - it turns us into 'stalkers' of other's life - that by reading what they have written/uploaded, it gives us clues as to who they are as a person (which is really not true; as when we blog, we are fully aware that others could read what we have written)

d) that we care to know what is going on in the minds of others when in fact we ourselves are in confusion as to how our mind works

e)that we forget the beauty of process of anything (that matters to us)

f)that sometimes the privacy of one's life becomes a reflection of another - in which we assure ourselves that what we are going through is similar to someone else in this world

Human beings needs constant assurance and recognition that they are accepted by others?
