it seems like the more knowledge we acquire the more we go against the laws that made our existence possible in the first place. women get educated and stop having babies. we improve technology and increase pollution. i thought we were supposed to be getting smarter. at this rate the moment we experience ultimate enlightenment would probably the point of time we experience total extinction.

i always thought that time showed change, but come to think of it change shows time. we feel a sense of time passing when we see things changing, we see time by witnessing movement, the changing of the positions of the sun in the sky, the ticking of the hands of a clock. i would like to think of change as a travellator really, one that pushes us through the passage of time, rather than time being the driving force and we just watching the changes occur. Without change, everything comes to a standstill. so logically it means that nothing lasts forever bcos forever cannot come about without change. what's precious are the things that can evolve with time and yet retain the essence of what they stood for in the beginning.

i think the reason why they say sleep tight is bcos sometimes when yu sleep your mind feels as if it's drifting in a million directions at once. so yu say sleep tight so that yu keep your thoughts and your mind close to yu when yu sleep so they dont run all over the place and yu dont hafta go catch them before yu wake up and end up even more exhausted than when yu went to bed. sleep tight- wrap yourself up in a cocoon, don't spread yourself too thin and don't lose yourself in your dreams.

Once, when I had finished my Arts degree and was only doing law, I read a new novel by a wonderful Australian writer. My friend, also a slightly disaffected law student, asked me what I thought of it.

'I didn't really get it,' I said, disappointed. 'I don't think it worked.' He looked at me. 'That's because,' he said, 'you were reading for the point.' He was right. I'd just read a novel, a thing of grace and beauty, a complex interaction with the world, and life. And, out of force of training, I'd been looking for the point.

My friend laughed. 'Next,' he said, 'you'll be listening to music for the argument.'

and when i saw someone else who had listed silver as a fave colour i was surprisingly moved. Not only bcos i didn't realise before that i was convinced silver was a colour at all, but that someone else thought it too.

funny how we're always so keen to prove our individualism and yet at the same time spend time and money on personality tests and quizes that fit us into little boxes with fifty million other people. those boxes are misleading anyway, they make yu assume people would remain in that box 24/7 and for the rest of their lives. i thought self-discovery meant probing into your character and opening a greater range of options by finding out things yu never knew were in yourself, not confining yourself into a little box that people yu dont even know put yu in.
