I Hate You , But don't leave me

Just write down what you think. It doesn't have to be true. It's what you think.
By the way, I think I set the my limits myself and i'm often wrong about them.

Whaterver it is .As a member of SaiGon English club I fully disappointed .By the way i'd like to thank Baixinnho the only help me
I Hate You , But don't leave me

Yeah,may be that's true,but don't say so.May be other members are bustling .See?I post a topic about my essay on EC but no one answer.OK ,let me give you my opinion.
In childhood,parents set my limit and because i am innocent and obeidient so i always follow .
When i was a teenager, i became stubborn and no one can limit me even myself but i MUST obey my parents and teacher because i think they are right.
When i pass teen to become an aldult(i think so),i myself set limit for me because i want to be successful.
And as a man in life,perhaps in future my wife is the one who set that thing for me.I think the factor that affect me is the successful in life that parents ,teachers and other sources of information teach me.

Oh....what a nice topic to discuss !
Who set our limits? Why do we don't allow ourselves to tell lies? Why do we try to keep ourselves away from doing something that may bring disadvantages for other people? Why do we are willing to go out at night but we must try our best to return home by 10 P.m ?
In fact , we live and behave in stated limits. Those are the very things existing in our mind , eg, at work, the employees have *****ffer bosses' complaints although they may be uncomfortable and impossible , but their mental sufferance are apparently not without end. At home, our parents lay down some rules, we completely obey the and rarely dare to answer back when we are children . However, when we grow up , we do something out of them . All of these are concerned with limits of sufferance. Actually, what add up to is originated from our thoughts. And our thoughts are set by our education, our social values, morals, our living environment . Firstly, our parents instruct us to do something, give us advices what we should do and what should not. Furthermore, our parents and elders in our family usually give us valuable experiences and advices whenever we need. Secondly, our teachers teach us and set us limits. Thirdly, our own experiences, our life also set us limits. What we spend and what we conceive are so important . We set principles for ourselves and act up to them . In other words, all of the principles are based on social values, social morals . They take a very crucial roles in setting our limits. In some oriental countries , virginity is a criterion for a girl to be appreciated. In some western countries, success in making money is a social value.
*****m up, our limits are set by many factors which concern, interact mutually. They are established gradually and step by step penetrate us.

Wait there! After reading the last 2 posts, I have to ask you 1 question: what do you mean by "limit" ? Does it mean the limitation of what your body and mind can do? Or does it mean what you are allowed to do?

If limit is ability that you are able to do ,may be it can not say anything because it just depends on your nature and a little more practice.That 's all

No way. It takes a lot of practices and experiences to know about your ability. Nobody knows exactly what you can do and how much you can do. For example, someone may normally run very slow, but if he was chased by an lion he would run much faster than he'd have expected.
How about you? Do you know what you're good at? I think that people never reach their potentials. They don't know about their abilities. Usually, it's us that set our limits, it's doesn't depend on our nature because we don't know about our nature. We don't know how much we can do.
anyway, the question is unclear to me. That's all.

Yes, the question is alittle bie obscure. I agree with baixinho that we dont know what we can do and how much we can do. We will know our abilities once we face a certain event which happen to us, especially in some hard situiations. At that time, the situiation will be a force promting us to do with the best try of ours. So I think that our limit is set by us ourselves.
If limit is what we allow to do, I think it is the law, the rituals of our tra***ional soceity .
