Why are we always trying to find an
answer to questions that may not completely exist? I know the question sounds weird even though
it is true. I started to ask myself this
today as I read my text for my class concerning genders in society. It troubles me in that society feels
obligated to have an ultimate reason for why things are the way they exist here
and now. For instance, one person is
attracted to another person for one specific reason. I disagree. Face it people, humanity contains too many
variables. A common denominator may be
found, but then you need to consider the loop holes and the exceptions to every
rule which would ultimately re-categorize everything that has been place in
group or another. I refer to this as my “everything
causes cancer” theory and no that is not meant to insult anyone nor is it meant
to completely be taken lightly.
A few years ago I remember watching
the news where the reporter was delivering a message that butter was not
healthy for you and would cause cancer.
Not long after that, the same reporter said margarine causes cancer so
it was better to use butter. Is this not
confusing? So which does a person use?
Butter or margarine? I guess the best option is to use neither, but if you had
to pick one which would it be? Neither is good and then neither is bad, yet
both cause cancer. Guess what? So do a
lot of other things in life if used excessively and not responsibly, but why is
it we have to label just one thing as a root cause?
Why should my scenario or the things
that affect me be the same scenario and things that affect another person? We
did not come from the same background.
We did not have the same exact experience (unless that person was in head
in which case I feel obligated to say…I’m sorry :P), but nothing is ever the
same. Why does society feel the need to
control the ending response on everything?
I understand medical research to finding the same solution for different
people with illness, but why can we not
just accept some things are never going to have one resolution no matter how
hard we try and no matter how much money we throw at the research for it. Fair
warning….do you really want to know every detailed interworking of what makes
me who I am today, at this one very moment knowing very well that things will
change in the next hour, minute, second, etc.?
Go ahead and study all you want because by the time you have an answer
we will have to go through the research again because your answer ultimately
just changed from my experience with you.
As for this entry……
Maybe I tolerate too much of people
thinking they know everything and I am jealous or maybe I wish people would
just stop over analyzing things to stop and smell the roses. It could be financially related to the idea
that people spend way too much money on research that is nonsense when it could
be used towards something more productive.
Maybe, just maybe, I would like to know that someone out there agrees
with the idea that maybe there is no one answer to any problem as we all take a
different path that may intertwine with others whom we get to travel with on
the same path for a while until we branch off again in another direction.
With the idea of video games in mind….stay
safe along your path. Make sure to
gather what you need and jump over your obstacles to get to the end because
keep in mind that you did not get there the same way someone else did.
