 No single living entity on this planet is an island. The madman we shun today will become the most precious
thing tomorrow if he was the last person left on earth with us. We need each other, we depend on each other just like my brother called to debunk the burden that was crushing his day. My talking to him helped me understood myself even better on the other hand. For one thing I understood why I am sinlge despite the number of girls I meet regularly. The answer is simple, I have become caught in the twisted vice of the modern world. Like everyone else, I am looking for ultimate love and happiness. Dont giggle! I am sweating in the crook of my palms thinking on how to make sense of where the word ULTIMATE came from.
I write a lot, see a lot; probably more than I should. I talk sometimes too much cos my head is brimming with ideas good sensible and crazy. Some times horribly dumb too. In my world everything has a place. I fantasize and sometimes hate when those fantasies come true. Even though I had wished for that. I like people at first glance but it has never really worked hating them in the same way. I am infectiously spontaneous to a fault sometimes but still shyness has its place when it derserves it!
My academic mind is sometimes warp in imaginary romatic display that perplexes me. However, as i get up each day while I have gotten older overnight, I go "here comes another day, hey dude what we got here?" It has taken me so many years to come to understand that the basic instinct to search for satisfaction in life is in parity to hunting for happiness.
I am sometimes dismally disappointed that despite my search for happiness on a day to day basis, I have never been able to fully grasp it in its entiety. As a literal example, one goes to his best retaurant, eats and gets satisfied, three hours later one is as hungry as hell again. You meet a magic girl and bang one is blissfully happy. A week or take what ever time span one starts going like hmmmm am not so sure about this. I have known people that up to date, despite thier desire to persue an academic degree they never were able to find that right education that fit their mental desire. Who is a superstar? He or she is someone that spends a great part of his or her life working hard to gain success and recognition and then when it comes, he or she spends the rest of it behind shades hiding from paparazzis, fans and stalkers! You can name the rest for yourself.
The question then is; is there anything like maximum happiness? Is there a thing like maximum satisfaction? My concept about falling in love today is that as our societies become much more modernized and advanced there has been a tendency to shift to individuals looking for ultimate satisfaction in everything. I am sorry to say, this blogg triggered by my brother's early morning phone call tells me nothing but that ultimate love and happiness is utopic. There is no consistency nor neither is there any constancy. There aint no such things. Did someone just slap me?
