Nature and Balance
Oct 31

One thing i can say i believe in is balance. it may be something that can also be analyzed as a psychological fabrication to further give purpose to otherwise unexplainable things. and maybe the connections we see between events is simply because we want to see that connection. but either case, if it really is just the way of nature or a coincidental connection of events i’m sure many of you will agree with me. there are patterns in nature and many examples i can give to back up my principle of balance. and the best case i can give right on the top of my head, is the relationship between the number of predators versus prey as you go up the food chain.
that system was built for balance. many other examples exist, but now the questions is, can we project that idea as a natural phenomena that also applies to events that occur in our everyday lives. can we say that good and evil balance out? many might say no, but balance may not always establish itself at a single point. in a vast world, an action at one end could spark a counter event at the other end. and the balance may not only be spacial, but could also be temporal, where balancing events are separated by time. now can this be proven, no. can statistics back this up, no because there’s no direct proof linking the events.now why should we ponder on something that can not be proven, well because it is an idea and every idea has worth and this idea makes me handle negative events with optimism for the upcoming balancing event, u should try it

No such thing as destiny
Oct 20

I personally look at destiny as a mental fabrication or a way of coping with the unpredictability of life. it is a conception or belief we use to give meaning to our lives. a belief that our lives have already been written in stone and irrespective of the current situation it does not deter the future from happening or simply an excuse for not trying. i chose not to believe in destiny because i prefer to believe i have control over what become. i feel that the belief in destiny places people in an illusion that demeans their actions as irrelevant and having no consequences towards achieving anything more or less from what their destiny is. one thing i hate seeing or hearing is someone saying, “oh i guess it wasn’t my destiny” and just like that the person has killed all hope from overcoming his/her obstacles. here ’s a perfect example look at this guy in video:
now when this guy was either born with no arms or lost his arms, do you think he accepted that he would never play an instrument. it only became an obstacle and yet that didn’t stop him from learning something that he is has a passion for. ya sometimes it may be too hard and yes we might not be able to even accomplish it in the end, but i feel that we owe it to ourselves to at least try and overcome before you chose to accept it as “fate”.there is no such thing as destiny… there is no limit for me or for you, only different sized road blocks
