..but what the hay" so ummmmmmm ........................................this is just some more of my useless shit talking while i am bored of watching dave fail miserably at jeopardy (its really just sad)

man, the world contradicts itself so nasty. like...you think you come up with one awesome theory, but then theres some situation or something in the world that contradicts it. which is why no one can figure the world out. but wtf? we're not supposed to figure it out...we just react to it. see..but then right there..we just react to life....but then i also think life is what YOU make it. so theres a contradiction already. although i mean maybe its both...we control our reactions, which then in turn control our life? but....reaction implies you cant really control what just happened..just how you respond..but you can control what happens..to some point..like you cant control death..but you can control how you react to it (someone elses, not your own obviously)...but you can control like...if youre bored with your life..its no ones fault but your own, right? you control how you spend your time...but then you can also kill someone...sort of controlling death....but THEY didnt control their death..so whats that all about? i mean i dont really know if there is such thing as luck? i guess maybe certain things have to do with luck but then other things you can control yourself. or maybe we can control every aspect of our life but we say we cant because we're scared to admit we are just to scared to do everything we want to. its like coincidence...i mean if you believe in coincidence, then clearly you dont think you have control over your life...i dont know........

oh...something else i usually wonder about that i just thought of...is ignorance truly bliss? i mean it is..but....then what about the whole 'the unexamined life isnt worth living" thing? so whats better...happiness or knowledge...because they both dont seem to go together..happpiness is better..but....curiosity needs to be handeled...but it almost seems like the more someone learns about life...the more they realize ignorance is bliss...but theyre no longer ignorant...or are they? can humans really ever become 'wise' ....i mean...no one can really figure out life..they can figure out how to be happy...which is what would probably be the best thing..but thats not life...or is it? i mean is life about being happy.........leaving behind a legacy...helping the earth..i guess its different for everyone..therefore can never be figured out....because it changes for everyone. i guess life is just like one of those math problems.. 'no solution' but thas so unsetteling..because then we have to go through lifenot knowing shit..just doing what we do..and that should be enough..why do we WANT to know more if we can never figure it out..if it doesnt matter..what in everyones brain m akes them want to figure out why theyre here..it doesnt really matter..or does it? then again some people dont care to learn more about life...they just want..idk i guess simple things..which is better..like..it is better i guess to be happy with simple things..but isnt our ability to question life what differentiates us from animals? (amongst other things of course)..take my dog, for example...he is..im pretty sure...happy pretty much all the time. the highlight of his day is to be pet by someone...or to get walked...simple enough...so he is happy about simple things..and will most likely die happy ....is this situation really better than someone who traveled around the world...but also saw the bad parts of it..fell in love and was soo happy..but then lost it...lived life to the fullest but had as many bad times as they did good..?whos better off? .......maybe a dog is a bad example..a retarded person..one whos happy for no reason at all..but will never leave the state they are in now...or really meet anyone new....which is really better? most everyone would be like 'oo its better to experience all you can' and i think it is..sometimes..but that just takes us back to what you think life is all about..im pretty sure its about happiness..but ...i dont really know

i typed how i thought, so idk if it made TOTAL sense..
