Can people ever learn to change?

Comments

If they are shown how to, then yes.

[star-core.livejournal.com]

...I don't think so. Not some.

[workwillcarryon.livejournal.com]

Everyone has the ability to. It depends on whether they wish to.

[star-core.livejournal.com]

And if they do but always fail, eventually?

[ms-lois-lane10.livejournal.com]

Yes. People can do anything, it's just a matter of whether they want and how hard they're willing to work for it.

[star-core.livejournal.com]

How do you stop always accidentally ruining things?

[ms-lois-lane10.livejournal.com]

Pay more attention.

[star-core.livejournal.com]

If what I say doesn't sound insulting to me... I can't tell.

[not-my-father9.livejournal.com]

I hope so.

It depends on the person.

[star-core.livejournal.com]

So do I.

I don't think I can.

[not-my-father9.livejournal.com]

I don't think I can either, but that probably doesn't help any.

What are you trying to change?

[star-core.livejournal.com]

I need to stop saying things that ... end up with people hating me.

[girlnamed-chuck.livejournal.com]

I think they can change little things, but not their entire personality.

[star-core.livejournal.com]

That's horrible for people who don't have a decent personality.

[boughtforgod.livejournal.com]

I think so.

[star-core.livejournal.com]

Have you seen it?

[badbobbybarnes.livejournal.com]

Norrin, ya didn't do or say anything wrong. She's in a mood.

[star-core.livejournal.com]

No, tt's not the first time. I always do this.

[badbobbybarnes.livejournal.com]

I don't think ya always do it. I think it just feels like it. Ain't ya fault if other folks are easily offended.

[artoflabor.livejournal.com]

No.

Maybe.

[star-core.livejournal.com]

Never?

[artoflabor.livejournal.com]

Never's pretty long.

[mabofwinterdark.livejournal.com]

It's what I'm trying to build a life on.

And Norrin, it's not your fault I had a yelling match with a farmer beforehand and was in a bad mood.

[star-core.livejournal.com]

So am I.

I made a mistake, like with Hank. You don't have to...

[mabofwinterdark.livejournal.com]

So it's what we have to believe in.

You made a mistake and we're both mature enough to move beyond it. Unlike with Hank.
