i was pondering over something that spilled from a conversation that had me enthralled for a while: can u actually force someone to keep in touch with you? inane and ridiculous as it sounds it somehow kept the mills of my grey matter running for that bit. and larger issues then followed (the cursed legal train of thinking) like say if one could actually cope with a friend's way of handling matters when it directly clashes with your ideology of sorting things out?and when it does do u try reconciling or stand by your philosophy because you maintain who you are and thus trash things out? people at the bottom of it all do have different ways of dealing with things but when cosmic forces come clashing, is it time to throw out the big bang theory?
i'm often afraid to pose questions of existence or relational questions really. i'm in the belief that they are meant to rhetorical or worse yet, meant to brew nerve troubles. but more often than not when these existential queries present themselves to be that ugly reality we are so keen just to avoid, we often demand hard and fast answers, hoping they would translate themselves into workable solutions that will send these realities flying out of the door. yes, life is also more often than not, never this simple. i had a few of these practicable scenarios of my own. not pleasant of course but when it turns inwards, a self-improving individual might be glad that these things do come up. i'm not sure if it's called coming to terms with things but at least i know knots are being untied. caring too much can do heinous things too. people have different value systems, people have different methods to face up to things that come their way and they don't necessarily have to be in tuned with what you believe in. if they don't come together and say hi, i should let it fly.
i was about to say relationships should be easy, but i stop and thought that blood baths were started just because two individuals in power didn't get along: bush-saddam; mary of scots-elizabeth I, etc. and it's worse when things are so lucid i'm beginning to stop thinking about it. when that happens, indifference is born and degeneration is almost bound to mutate out of that. see, wherever i move is a plunge downwards.
on a much lighter note (or not cos the food consumed is quite the tonnage), i brought mummy dearest on 'her day' (Mother's Day) to Jade@Fullerton. Let's just say we had little piece of heaven on a large piece of my wallet. but all in good stride.
but to end this, questions of life are better left neigh-answered, ain't that the saner route out?

This may sound simple but, the best thing about reality, is that it is real. However, one of the worst things about reality is that it's real.
Please try to follow along with my nonsence. People seem to take peace of mind in solid answers, and are afriad of what they don't know. It's natural. Unfortuanly for us, when questioning life there are no solid answers, so as soon as one tries to figure our our reality, or worse, doubt our reality, it's natural for them to have nervous-troubles, as I think you put it.
The bright side?: What we don't know won't hurt us. There are something which are dependable and constant. (Such as math. And the rest just depends on faith, in many forms. And The fact that if life could be rationalized and explained completly, chances are it would not be real.
Anyone can rationalize a choice, good or bad, moral or imoral. But nobody can completly explain a real thing. How can anyone explain what the colour orange looks like. How can you even explain the room your sitting in. No matter how long you described it, you would always be missing something. Not to mention, wrong about many of the things you think are 'real' such as if you described your room as 'large' it would actually be small compaired to somone with a bigger room.
Anyways my point is that, with real things we can only hope to describe them well enough so that you are satisfied. With fake things such as fasion, status, the illustion or control, we can explain them perfectly
Life pretty much boils down to many paradoxes, as do most states of mind. The reason call realitiy and these states of mind a paradox is because we could never really explained them well enough. And we don't need to. Wind is for blowing, water is for running, and life is for living, thats all the matters, so in the end we 'sane' just not to question our lives, but just simply live them. And if you need, take faith where you find it.
Personaly I take faith in the fact that we are hear, and that must mean something is right.
to my closetted elitist friend, do come out of the closet and tell me who you are, you're simply fighting space in there with your skeletons. *grin*
as for alex (erm which one? more specifically, who?), for me to elicit such a heartfelt response from you, i must have hit a raw nerve perhaps? but i should succintly respond to you by saying that life is a value system by itself and the reality that each of us has to deal with is a sub-value. and for me i left the post hanging with two questions was to prove the irony of my point that questions of life are meant to be, simply, rhetoric. but your stand goes well-noticed and appreciated.
