sitting on the metro on my way home from work...i always sit alone and next to a window so i can see the river as the train travels over it...i also am conscious about people peeking at my writing...there are only a few people on the train because it is late...i am listening to my iPod to some smooth electronic jazz from Japan...
The Questions
I just came to this realization (not really because this was written in the past, but if you go back to the past with me you will be caught up to the present of this realization:) Many times I asks questions that I know I can not answer; nor can anyone around answer either. I used to think it was pointless to even say them out loud or to even think them in the first place. But (I use "But" and "And" freely at the beginning of sentences now because of the movie Finding Forrester...movies control my life) I have come to find the answers to many of my questions on my own. So therefore, if I never would of thought to ask those questions, would I have ever found the answers? Yes I would have come across the answers but I would probably been unaware, or oblivious for a better term, to the fact that the answer was in my face. So you definitely need a question before you can receive an answer. Now with that in my head, I feel better about asking myself questions. No matter how impossible they may seem from the point of time I am asking them. Maybe everyone should start asking more questions. We are a lot smarter than we think. We just need to believe in ourselves and trust that we can find the answers. I guess it is all about patience and believing.
i really liked this. questions are quite important in how we discern who we are. when did you come to this realization?
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry I never responded to this. I really don't know when I cam to this realization. I assume it just formed over time, not just all at once. Thanks for reading.
