One of the most wonderful and tormenting things about life is paradox. The paradox of good and bad, big and small, white and black, concentration and division, solidity and void. This philosophy is best represented by the circle of yin and yang. I question why is life designed in such paradox? Why are we saying one thing and another thing contradictory?
When batman asked joker in the dark knight "why dont you just kill me?" Joker answered "Why should i kill you, you complete me." There is no bad, if there is no good and vice versa. There is no god if there is no evil.. THey co-exist, no one can exist without the other... Why should we have god creating this universe if that also bring along the evil?
Why are we believing in eternal life through dead? Why inconsistency is the most consistent thing? Why are we so lonely when we have 8.5 billion people on earth? Why do i feel lonely when i am in big cities while i feel so besieged by friends when i am in a small place (Medan)? Note: i have relatively same amount of friends in both place..
I find life very difficult to comprehend because the answer of many questions is answered by questions... When consistency is an integral part of logic, by which the principle i am living, life is so inconsistent...
Paradox of hate and love: You cannot love someone without hating him/her and vice versa. You cannot think that we (human) are too small in the big universe, but you get bored with your surroundings because you think any sightseeing object is just as interesting as the previous one.
The most aggrieved part is why hardworking or genius people do not achieve their dreams, while ignorant and slothful people do... Why the best is not necessarily the best (champion).
Why the truth is the thing people hate listening the most? Why your enemies are your closest friends? (Don Corleone says Keep your friends close, keep your enemies closer)...
Why do i have to ask why?
someone once said you can't truly appreciate the exhilaration of a mountain peak without being in the depths of a mountain.we don't know cold without hot,light without dark, happy without sad. why is this? because everything we feel as humans is relative,we only know it as compared to something else, it's not mathematics or science.to me that's a great thing ,not something to be mystified by because it means we aren't preprogrammed robots,we're feeling,crying,laughing human beings.
