And we don't change

This is something in human nature which I love and despise at the same time, strange that is, I love the fact that people whom I appreciate or rather the things I appreciate in them are so rooted in their lives that they simply cannot default. On the other hand the things which I despise in myself are far more ingrained in nature that I have been a total failure in wiping them out (Atleast until now all my efforts have gone in vain) and that's make me seriously hate this aspect of human nature. We hold on! Almost perfectly. But rarely we shrug off something which we so desperately want to get rid of.
I am not a very keen observer of the mankind as the other learned people had been, and therefore , cannot claim whether you will also fall short when it comes to changing yourself but the engineer in me will tend to generalize it too. But does this mean we all will be like how we are? Out rightly pessimistic and cynical you may tend to declare it. All I have to say is look back, look around and more importantly look within, how often are we able to change ourselves especially the true self ? And somehow if we feel that we have changed how longer does this illusion(If readers agree with me ) last for many of us ? And even if you believe that you have changed yourself, I can bet you either weren't true self previously or your illusion is slightly an extended one . If we all could change ourselves with our free will, the world would have been a perfect place and heavens would have envied over it. Any remedy if you were to ask me - forget this piece of writing and continue working as hard you could to become a better person every day, may be you will succeed .
