After that sad dreary day when the word seemed to stop, and change into something that was unfamilliary him. Something at the moment he was happy, to be free from all that seem to cause him frustration...temptation, yet as he began to live and learn through out his years he realized that this sad grey meaningless change was nothing to be desired...this led him to think what actually is desire and why does one desire?
I came to the conclusion that our emotions are the basis of all of our instincts. They are mearly survival tools. Love...we are hormonialy attracted to other people to reproduce so that our species may continue to live on...merely an instinct. Homosexuality is merely the basis of what the physce has develope to think that this is what one needs to truely exist, be it a man or a woman. Despite the fact that it is inevitable that we all exist, we still feel that to truely be apart of the word one must distinguish himself as this or that...which leads to his or her survival. Money, leadership are exatly alike even though this is not the ethical case. We as humans feel that we must be the strongest to survive, depending on what our niche is. In this case, I will use Marie as an example. She strives to be the best. She practiced everyday to become the best flute player, the best drum major to help bring unity to her family (the band) even though she was giving third chair she felt as if she had failed so miserably as if she did not now exist within that familly she wanted to be apart of... but the question is why do we feel that we need to survive, why in this majorly big universe we are merely specs of dust, why must we feel to become the best why do we need to feel emotion...why were we givin free will? God? Maybe...but that still doesnt explain why God exist why the universe exist. Why do we all strive to be happy? Depression, love, lust....all things because we want things. But why do we want things...why do we need things. the sun the moon, the earth are all things that exist because of science, we exist because of science but what in that science determines what has free will and what doesnt. What is the point of evolution, to survive....but why? rocks exist, they dont evolve...we needed to...but why? Mr. Smith says I should read some books on exestenilism...the idea that the world will end when you die...i believe this in an extent. I love what he said that in this moment of sadness, it is the striveing for happiness that creates beauty or something to that extent...but all of those things are insignificant...it just leave me wondering whats the point...how do effect anything on the larger scale??? I refuse to believe that one person is sitting up in the heaves saying that we have to do this to get into heaven....I couldnt care less about that, I just want to know why there is a God, why there is a heaven...why didnt things just continue to spin?
Row Row Row Your Boat
Gently Down the Stream
Merily, merily, merily, merily
Life is but a dream
