Dangers

Does influence comes first, or does understanding comes before thoughts. I wonder if i think in such a way because of the influences, or i think in such a way because i understand. I am not certain if i do think this way, i want to think this way or i am influenced to be thinking this way.

Movies, media, television and music all seek to influence our way of thinking, be it trying to make a point through or just to express the director's thoughts. More often than not, it not merely serves as an avenue to express their viewpoints or to let people to understand, but seek to manipulate and influence our way of thoughts.

But the most dangerous might not necessarily comes from external influences, but rather internally what you want yourself to believe. Deep down beneath everyone there is a voice that seeks turn your life around, around from what you know you have to be and what you have to do. But still, at the end of the day, people always crave for the dangerous, despite of the dangers and misadventures.
