Continuance upon the foggy path of life

Feb 12, 2006 20:08

What is important to you? What are you values and morals? Why do you chose to live the way you do? Can you still change your path, or is it already decided?

Forget about all those material things, the material has little value in the end; What is it that you live for? There is no one true meaning - You create the meaning. Everything is decided by your mind. As in the idealist faith there is no such thing as the material, it is simply the perception and creation of the mind. So all these answers should and can be answered by one's own mind. Everything in the end must be able to be analytically, logically, or otherwise solved by the mind.

That's just a little peak into my thoughts ;). What a bland boring person I would be if everyone heard each others thoughts. Or perhaps it would spark curiousity.

I've been trying to solve many things recently that I have deemed for myself difficult, I believe by this fault I have inadvertently caused this problem to be far more difficult than was ever meant. Either way, it's interesting the way my mind percieves everything around me. One such problem I have been trying to solve is motivation and emotional factors towards competitive situations. For example, fencing. I go into fencing with a cocky attitude, but come out right clean knocked out of my boots. And yet I persist, why? I seem to know it inevitable - And yet I challenge those odds, challenge reason. People believe that true strength comes from inner rather than outside, and this has been seen by the complete turn of situations that were once in favour of one over the other. What makes this will so much stronger? How do you use it and take advantage of it?

Yikes v.v I have to stop thinking otherwise I'll keep going on with the questions! But didn't the greatest minds become famous for asking such questions? Why does society form? Why do things always fall down and never up? Why do planets revolve around the sun, why doesn't it revolve around us? Perhaps this questions seem simple to us now, but at one time these questions were on the minds of all the great scholars and genious', they were complex and difficult to solve.

And anyways, by questioning the universe is the only way we can learn. We must constantly learn and percieve, think and build upon our knowledge, trial and error and so on.

-The none weird thinking stuff-

So yeah, my weekend was rather dull. Right now I'm getting my clothes done. Cleaned up my room for the most part. Prepped and played supposedly the best game of dnd I've done yet. And had a bit of fun with friends. Now for the last bit of homework and my weekend will be "Finished".

There's still a lot for me to do. I have books to finish reading, a game engine to finish, installing a hard drive and floppy drive into my computer, projects to start, labs to do, house chores to do, finish cleaning my room, and so on and so on. I hate obligations. Can't I just sleep and go to school? Who needs clean clothes, food, a job and whatever. I'd be happy.

Well... No. I wouldn't. I'm a rather work-a-holic. I love having too much to do so I have to figure things out, stress myself, force myself to work hard. I feel that strength comes from constant effort and work. I spend a little too much time playing games recently and I'm thinking about stopping that habbit. Reading is the only beneficial past time and that's just because I don't read fiction. Philosophy, mythology, anything that can teach me something is all I can sit down to. So really I just want to be learning all the time. Learning is my purpose in life. That and kindness/being there for others.

This has been a rather bland entry but I hope it gives more insight into myself.

Night peoples.

Sincerely,
E.L
