My Father is a decent bloke. Brought up on the tough side of town the youngest brother of a large family and became the black sheep of his family by escaping poverty and becoming a professional person. In many ways a successful man albeit in moderation.
But like many of his generation and sadly often my own, my father seems stuck in an unbreakable mindset that clings to beliefs tested by nothing other than simple dogma, almost a wish to remain ignorant of things even when the lightest of research would tell him otherwise. Often when I look at the younger generation too, guys in their twenty something’s, many of them now fully believe what they are told by TV, School, the Government and their parents, even when their direct experience should tell them something else.
However, its one particular belief that my Dad held, one he repeated over and over many times during my youth, that I wish to dissect and put forward an alternative viewpoint.
“People don’t ever really change” he will say and then go into his reasoning of how they may appear to but their instincts are always the same.
This may be true for many but actually Re invention is the mother of change.
