Life

Life... Can we decide what we are going to do with our life... I don't know... When I was younger, I used to think that we can become whatever we want to be... Of course... I know... You must be laughing now... But I guess everyone thinks that they have figured out life at least once... Some plan it carefully, keeping checkpoints in a time line, others just face life as it comes, spontaneous. I don't know what I am, or what I want to do or where I want to reach for that matter. I used to plan too, like I should do this, I am good at this, so this should be my career, go ahead and become successful in life... But now, after all these 'education'  and learning,  I ponder over the very definition of success, of happiness, of career, of the basic idea of life.

I am a polymath.  Basically someone who is good at a variety of things. Believe me, it's not always a good thing. I learn stuff very fast, so I get bored very fast too.  It's really hard to just focus on a single thing. It's my nature to learn many things. Not a good quality if are looking for a job, I guess or even becoming a specialist.

Then what should I do with all this knowledge that I accumulate. Why do I need this.

Liberal Arts

There are so many things that I understand so easily, but there are more things that I will never be able to fully comprehend that deeply, to see the real meanings, to savor the core essence, some things will always elude me, somethings that I wish I could see and enjoy. Reason and logic can make you see what others can't...but creativity and imagination, they make you see what is there beyond...Arts. literature, music, no wonder they are called liberal...it liberates your mind, lets it go free, its a dance of thoughts and emotions, the height of human intellect...to be unbound by rules...It would be nice to experience it, for once to see that beauty, the wonder, to stand in awe at those masterpieces that opens a new dimension of perception...

Hurricane

You, my hurricane, you lifted me up to dance with you

and weightless I felt...with dreams and love.

Now that you are gone, I am bereft,

standing in the ruins of my heart.

Devastated, I see emptiness around me,

and I understand with pain, finally,

why hurricanes are named after people.

Philosophy of Albert Camus

When life obviously has no meaning...it is important to judge whether life is or is not worth living...

State of Contra - Brexit (Article 50)

This vote shows what a referendum can do if you offer a binary choice to an electorate, even an educated electorate with a long history of democracy, and push messages based on fear, in the context hings that are economical with the truth and plain lies, a number of misinformation was handed out.
The core issue was : Immigration. The entire blame of failure of economy and everything wrong with the country was put on the shoulders of immigrants.And the solution was to stop immigration and the EU was standing in the way, so BREXIT.

Now Britain is basically screwed. They had this amazingly stupid idea that they can leave EU unscathed. The economy will start to grow and employment will increase. But all they made sure was piss off Germany and other other European giants.

Now Britain wants an open market with free trade, but EU won't accept free trade without free movement of people.

There goes democracy: Parliament voted for something else, the people voted for something else.
