Time and I (Not written by me)

There are times when you want time to just fly past

 and 

There are times when you want them to slow down

or

Just pause for the moment

But

Life has a habit of behaving in a manner that greatly displeases us

It doesn't want to 

Follow your wants

Follow your neds

instead 

Life chokes you

Entices you

to be 

Obedient.

SO what should we do?

In such a bleak world

Nothing?

Seems like a reasonable answer....

and 

Also a most irritating one

 Being denied one's own

Destiny

The time of this existence

Will forever move forward

At a constant rate 

Even though we wish otherwise

Even if we scream

Even if we shout

Even if we cry

Because

That's the way things appear to be

 Sure

Our paintings of life 

Suck.

Nonetheless we aren't restricted to what we do within the canvas

Our very own canvas.

You 

Who can change anything

Who is not restricted to nothing

Raise your head

Move out of the mist

Forge your own art.

                                                                                                               Thi Vo.

                                                                                                 

 

What Gives?

What is it that drives countries?

What is it that grows companies?

What is it that inspires people?

There are many questions in life that we never find the answer to and somehow lots of people don't want to find the answer either. Which is quite a peculiar phenomena by my standards.

 Then again, over the ages, many folks don't have the pleasure of philosophising(Australian spelling I guess) because they would always have to survive from day to day. I find they were really lucky that they did not have to think so deeply into the meaning of many things. The less amount of information we feed into our brain, the more blissful it is, then again that goes with the saying, ignorance is bliss. 

We always reach a time in society where we no longer need certain things. We discard our old ways and repeat the errors of old, except this time, we are in a completely different environment. But does it really matter to many of us anymore? The life span given to us by our ancestors is so limited yet so long, if we were able to live "forever" would our view on day to day activities and how we go about things be the same? Would we still welcome the morning as we do everyday now, whether it is with a long sigh or a determined grin. The answer would be no, that's because the value of time would be altered in a manner where we understand we have a longer period thus things would be presented different, Nikola Tesla would still be alive to this day if that was the case.

To entertain so many different hypothesis of the world and its events would never cease to amaze me, we as humans are scared of what our brains are capable of thinking of and also the enormity of the so called reality around us, thus spawned religions (not that it is a bad thing) but hence forth we should be focusing on certain things that everyone should agree on but still do not, we can see it all in everyday life, I'll leave that thought for you all to postulate over.
