A misinterpreted word, a mistimed expression and an unadulterated point of view is all it takes. Unadulterated ( you read it right ), not in sync with the rest or any approach which defies the norms of a system. Systematic as in style, thinking, approach, point of views, ideologies theories and philosophies. People lap up every symptom of deviation from methodical and routine, to form Notions. Unfortunately, notions are yardsticks for judgment, for, people are impatient, egoistic and an opinionated lot. Impatient because they cannot wait to patent a thumb rule while handling each other. Egoistic because, they are mighty offended when their own rules are proved wrong. Opinionated because they are caught in the spider web of a system.
Notions are rooted thorns pricking a finger. The more we try to uproot, the more they hurt. Notions are chain reactions. One giving birth to another. Notions are versatile. They can be tampered. Notions stagnate our point of view. Notions draw us blank. Notions are assassins. They are an 'influential' lot.
People demand explanation. An answer for every act and doing. Existence refutes explanation. One of people's favourite notion is me being a 'closed book'..., a concept which I fail to affiliate with. Another all time famous one is... me being a non-social entity, which I dismiss with disdain. It doesn't bother me. Or maybe it does and hence this post, you thought ? No, no way !
Notions know no logic. They are temporary. Ideologies are permanent.
