Roller Coaster

Truly, but the difference is that life is unpredictable.
Even a predictable roller coaster still scares the scream out of us, what about life?

Is like playing peek a boo on a rollercoaster.
Wow?

Wow!

Well anyway, but unlike roller coaster too, God is kind and will give us much happiness once the cliffs are over.

So keep looking forward to tomorrow!

I guess, both of us are at the ends of our mental stability

Branches

I like branches

I like endless possibilities

I like to pointlessly think about how things can go. I like trying new things, and figuring out how fun and magical they are

But often, I forget myself. I open up too many options, and I stand on tiptoes trying to balance them all, and figure out which things to keep and which to throw down before I lose my balance and everything falls down.

Like, right now.

Ahh, but... what do I do? I still find it fun afterall. Even if I already decided on my way, I still like to keep all the other things. Even though it's this messy I still can't drop it.

Eheheh. I'm helpless.

Fakery or Curiosity?

Last lecture I had about Contemporary Architecture left me a big impression.

Actually, there are a lot of things that I just paid attention to lately; of which I finally admit that even if I have known it all along, I have never considered them--and the lectures really help to ground my thoughts and make me pick the correct route of thinking(?).

But anyway!

The lecturer asked us what gave birth to Starchitects and basically every recent Post-Modern architecture, expressionism, and strange weird stuff typical of our life now, and the answer is : consumerism.

That humans, according to Prof. Nuffida, seeks something fake. Something they don't find in their daily life, a condition they don't get in daily life. Just as you would go into a mall just to escape from the heat of a tropical country, a place where you can stroll comfortably and safely, ignoring the reality waiting for you outside. Entertainment and movies to take you to different dimensions. Online identities contrast to who you are.

But... I was thinking...


If you look at it, isn't it just our way of being curious?
Humans naturally enjoys discovering something new. Even for those conservative people who enjoys the comfort of usualness, humans are naturally explorers, with minds that are always revolving, evoluting, testing ideas and ideals and revising them.

Naturally we are pleased and intrigued by things outside of our usual logic, a strange feeling, a different thing. Everyone would enjoy feeling of safety, and comfort, and fun, of something new.

One thing I agree with is, we crave entertainment.

And....yes, even if it's fake. Not everyone can afford to discover things on their own. Whether it's due to capability or will. Human brain loves being stimulated.

And maybe we are all just so incredibly bored.

And I guess, we are getting addicted.

But again, all this can be viewed from numerous point of view. Every coins has two sides.

So while I really am pleased with the thought that everyone is curious living things afterall; it's also time to raise awareness so we don't fall into the dark side of this precious coin.

For you, well, keep finding new things to get curious at!
