Diverse mind build-up, reasons, opinions, view, attitude and whatever else.
You meet someone at times and you'd wonder what kind of human is this or what is this person's mind made up of, you will be left probably shocked or amazed after meeting them.

i would like to share a little on masochist today.
i believe a short definition would suffice

you might even be masochistic and not be fully aware.
A lot of people have masochistic yearnings without consciously realizing it.
It requires some other person to inflict a level of pain on them to make these deeply repressed desires out-surface.
each masochists enjoy a uniquely different kind of pain. Take for instance there some kind of people who believe they do not deserve the good things of life who constantly sabotage themselves because they are unable to deal with success. Such self saboteurs do better with a little punishment , they feel that they deserve such criticism because it comes to them with a sense of relief. It is also easy to make them fee guilty which is a feeling that deep down they enjoy.
People experience responsibilities and the duties of modern life as a heavy burden, they long to give it all up even though they might be looking so strong and successful on the outside, many at times the strongest people may secretly want to be punished. Remember that appearances do deceive.

conclusion
be aware of yourself if you're guilty of the explanation, know that you need to give yourself credit and you deserve joy in your life.
like i will always say, the world exist in a balance, good and bad, negative and positive, so balance pain with pleasure and you will definitely create a state of dependency that will last a long time.
