of truth, life, colors and symbolism
So now I feel like writing my supposed-to-be entry for yesterday, my answer to the question "If you could travel in time, which era would you visit and why?".
My answer: The time of Christ's death. (who succeeded Christ after His death, who was the real first pope, who really wrote the real scriptures and what was the real religion established by Christ). My mother said, it's a matter of faith. Religion can't save you but your faith can.
I'm very much confused with my beliefs, and I really want to know the truth. History books never satisfied me with some of their biased accounts. The clashing of Science and Religion always leave me thinking of what's beyond the existence of everything. As much as I believe in reincarnation, soulmates, karma, and stuff that's kinda taboo in my religion, there have been some inconsistencies and contrasts in itself. History was shaped by wars that were fought because of what people then believed. Millions fought and were killed, fighting in the name of the Supreme Being they believe in. But still, the question of the truth still puzzles me, about the biggest secrets and the mysteries. It was said that the truth is the strongest of all, and I want to find it. ;)
I studied in a Catholic school, and was brought up in a strictly Catholic family. How was I able to become confused like this? It's by my own character (and a past life reading revealed to me when I was 2) that I can't be easily pacified or appeased by shallow things. I take things by the deeper meaning. Last year, one of my professors called me "agnostic" and he almost gave me a failing mark for an essay that I wrote about my interests. Boo him, and he was the one who asked us to write an informal essay about anything we'd like to write. How could he be so stubborn? But I chose not to get angry, thanks to my friends who accepted me for who I am, for listening to my thoughts, and for being open-minded enough.
Is there anyone who's interested with reincarnation? Care to discuss with me your thoughts about such things?
Because I'm fond of symbolism and I'm the self-proclaimed Queen of Exaggerations...
I absolutely love Kanjani ∞. But these things were kinda astonishing to me.
∞ The mugendai symbol reminds me of the Mobius Strip. Aside from being mentioned in freakin' Mathematics class, I consider its deeper meaning as a symbol of death and resurrection, of "returning to the same line". :)
One more thing, the song BJ. Is there any Tarot enthusiasts out there? The moment I learned of the song title "BJ", the first thing that came to my mind was the most enigmatic card in the Tarot. The High Priestess card with the pillars B (Boaz) and J (Jachin) from the temple of Herod where most of the hidden ancient scrolls of Jerusalem were hidden.
If ever you think I'm weird, it's alright. :)
And a new layout to make everything sound more symbolic. My rotating Ya-Ya-yah header set is back, and that means...oh, let the Mobius Strip explanation speak for that. Plus, I really missed the color purple - which symbolizes royalty and inspiration. Oh the symbolism, and if you'd ask why am I so in love with it, that's for self-expression. By the way, I took a color quiz, and here's my result: The colors of your life are blue - red - yellow - green - purple. YEAH, RIGHT. ;D
Is Hydee weird today? If yes, feel freeee to kick her outta yer f-list. No hard feelings on her part. :)
