There's more than that meets the eye.

".......I have witnessed their capacity for courage, and though we are worlds apart, like us, there's more to them than meets the eye. I am Optimus Prime...... "

This is the dialog from the movie "The Transformers" which I just watched yesterday. I was so fascinated that I watched the movie again on my computer today. Well, I am a robot freak and hence happened to like the movie but that is not the point of this post.

A widely acknowledged adage goes as "A man is what he does". As popularly claimed, it is often so easy to 'read' a person's action, then 'analyze and interpret them'. But rarely do we really understand the doer or the doer's intent this way. The analysis and conclusions that follow happen in accordance to our whims and fancies. The mind plays a trick on us and makes logically illogical matter appear in a way we want to see them, in a perfectly coherent and sensible manner. How unsuspecting we are about this!!(sigh)

An unexplainable bias always exist there. Not easy it is to get rid of.

On a totally different note, however confident we are, about these understandings of ours, we are never able to unequivocally state what we feel, for there is, an inherent fear. The fear of may be we are wrong. A battle of what ifs and buts erupt in our brains. Our thoughts go skewed beyond known limits.

We somehow seem to know or is it just that it is in our nature to doubt?

The mind as many believe has probably been the greatest boon to mankind, but never know, may become its greatest bane too.

We can only read actions accurately but perhaps never read into them correctly.

Man is a strange being beyond simple comprehension. There is definitely more to him than meets the eye. May be he is the true Transformer.
