Idealist or Realist?
It wasn’t until class the other day that I wondered about Idealism and Realism. To me, they were just topics of discussion I had never gone into, nor ones I ever understood.
Though I wouldn’t say I identify as an Idealist, I would say Idealism is a practice I relate to more. As one of my fellow classmates brought up a topic I agreed with him on, I know I’m not perfect, but I also have some idealistic picture in my mind of the perfect person. I don’t know who that is, but I know it’s not me.
Realism is more for folks who think of something as it is in that particular moment and address it accordingly.
Now that I know what each of these topics is, since I hadn’t really thought of them before class, I know how to cope with either of those groups of people. I know how to react to their comments and how most of them work. It’s quite an interesting concept.
Don't be shy, leave a comment…
