Interesting comparison. Please take a look.
I've been sitting here thinking...
As I can generally be found doing...
This is a real question...
...
How often to you call your beliefs, values, morals, etc. into question?
How often do you run through the logic of why you believe the way you do?
To me, this is remarkably important. Nobody want's their swan song to be their catch phrase.
So many people seem to be dead set in their ways, when there are so many things about them to be questioned, analyzed, and so forth.
I just think...my values, my morals, my beliefs have been so carefully crafted...and always are. Things change all the time.
I was playing Tetris, and I was thinking about how much like my process of logic to beliefs it is.
I start with a piece. I find pieces that fit well with that, and pieces that dont. But it all revolves around that initial block.
Then I started thinking....well... what if, like Tetris, that initial block is different for everyone. That would determine the outcome of the entire game. Or would it...
It cannot be said that the initial block determines the failure, but rather determines the path in which success and failure can both result.
Only in Tetris, it ends always in failure. Or the game does not end.
So the difference would be that, in life, there is a score to be met before one considers itself a success.
Now, if this is true, than it matters not which block one starts with, but only that one can form all the other blocks in such a way that, though it cannot be perfect, it will help them reach the score as well as possible.
The interesting thing is, as in life, Tetris, in it's progression, offers less and less time to make decisions.
Now think about this....Tetris offers that glipse of the future, that block to follow the block being manipulated.
People always say that "if only I'd known." Well, when Tetris continues on and on, how useful does that glipse become? Eventually you have so little time that it is impossible to even glance at the forecasted block.
And so, while that glipse speeds the game, in the end, the result is the same.
When your tower turns to grey, you've either taken your time to simply reach the score, or you've spent a lifetime looking ahead to speed a process that ends no matter how quickly it begins.
Dont let the possibilities become a jumbled mess. Carefully go about forming your beliefs and morals. Never throw out what is surely possibility simply due to probability.
Probability holds hands with science, but possibility holds hands with infinity.
End.
