Yeah I dunno..I feel like spewing a lot of random crud into this thing 'cause I've been thinking A LOT lately so bear with me.... sweatdrop
We live our whole lives searching...don't we? Searching for answers, people, hobbies, pets, things we have lost or never had..For the answers to those questions in our heads that we never ask and can never answer. Why do we live? What is our purpose? To make others happy, or for our own gain? If we help others and do not waste our lives, it only saves us from not spending an eternity in flames--which benefits us. Do we just aimlessly wander through our lives like in those Sims type games, or are we our own beings? Disaster. Why is there so much of it lately? How many people have to die before too many people have died? (That was a question in a book I read recently.) All these questions we cannot find answers for. Will we ever be able to? I was reading a volume of Fruits Basket recently and it had some parts that really made me think. Is anyone needed in this world? The world doesn't need us, it doesn't care who lives or dies. That's why we search for eachother-to feel needed.When we die what's it like?Are we consciencely(sp?) aware of our little 'soul' that lives on? Do animals have 'souls'? What exactly defines a 'soul'? I would like to think they have feelings and they can understand things..It sure seems that way to me. Why do we keep killing off more and more species? I've read an article somewhere saying this is like a modern mass-extinction. If you take one thing out of nature everything else is connected. You kill the mosquitos and the spiders have an even more limited food source, the fish's food source is cut down too-they no longer have the mosquito nymphs for food, Whatever eats the bugs/fish lose their food and so on and so forth. Why do we feel we are the 'superior' beings on this planet? Strangely enough Kingdom Hearts has really made me think a lot too. The human heart is a complicated thing. It sure is! What decides our emotions in certain situations and how we interact with eachother? But our emotions, why are they considered part of the heart? They are not controlled by the heart...Or are they? Why can't everyone just get along? There's too much war...about what? Religion lots of the time. Maybe they all point to the same entity/entities but all the different religions know them by different names..Why are there so many organizations trying to help people huring in other countries? Don't get me wrong, I'm all for that, but there are so many people hurting in our own country, in our schools, our neighborhoods. Yet for some reason those closest to us that are hurting get left behind. They put up the silent signs, too afraid to talk to someone about. So many are blind to those signs so they're ignored. But then you have those who bring the light into the darkness, those who saw the signs the moment they came. Never forget those people....Why does it seem that darkness brings dark thoughts with it? At night those thoughts keep me awake...I guess it just goes back to the point that we're forever searching...But will we ever find the answers?
If you read that whole thing, thanks for putting up with my almost depressing brain dump (as my bio teacher would say).Has anyone else thought about those things though? I dunno... confused sweatdrop
