The title tends to get people's attention... though I just wrote that because I wanted to... is that odd? Humans tend to want ultimately selfish things. Here's one application of it... A very fine candidate for a man in power is a man who does not want to be in power. The man who doesn't want to be in power won't tend to get corrupted because, hey, he doesnt want it. Yet... a man who does not want to be in power cannot be voted into power because he refuses to make himself available for voting. Hence, any President, or politician that we vote is potentially not able to fully do what needs to be done for the good of all the public because that person wanted to be voted, and that person wants to be in power... hence... voting is really nothing but choosing the lesser of two evils.
Lesser of two evils... what a term. What is more evil... stealing, or killing? Some would say killing, but then... killing ends a life of a person... as well as the suffering, the angst, and all those frustrating emotions. Stealing meanwhile can abruptly stop one's life... like for example... someone stole someone's car... and that car is probably the only thing that can help that someone, and once stolen... his life will be in ruin. He will suffer, and suffer more until the rest of his life. Sure... as long as a man is alive, he can still do something... thats all good... if we are all immortal. WE will die one day. It is inevitable.
Speaking of Inevitability... isn't it odd that people keep saying... we are the drivers of our life... but fail to mention that we arent driving our personal car. Yup. Sure, we can make the choices on where to go, really... but since it aint our car... we are only aware that we have a choice, even in some unconscious level... yet maybe in truth, we really can't choose at all. If something is meant to be, it will last. If not, it won't. Time will only tell... once it tells.
Time... another odd word. time is nothing but an illusion made by man. Proof? Once the human race dies out... completely dies out... who will keep the track of time? No one will know... life will go on. Life isn't affected by time... humans are cause we all die.
Death... what is it really? A release? The end of the life of the person? The process in which purpose is driven out of the person? What would death do to a person... what would death do to the people close to the person dying? Is dying... really just another way of saying... "Ah shucks, its over... next chapter!"
Are we really the most important creatures in God's eyes...? Or are we just too arrogant in claiming that we are? What makes an insect's life worth less? Or plant's? We were created by God... hence, its like a human creating a chair... only that this chair can talk and think for itself... when it has no purpose... we sell the chair or destroy it. Are we exceeding pride and arrogance in saying that we are the planet's strongest link to God? What makes us so sure?
Is there even a God? Yes... because energy is never created nor destroyed... hence... the Universe must come from somewhere.
The Universe................. well... its so big. Somewhere... there are alien races worshipping different gods... having different cultures.... Wish I was God so I would know everything..... it would be fun to see all the races in the universe... it would be fun to be everywhere...
It would be fun to have a life like that.
