i was reading a book about Sleeping Beauty's sister, who was blessed/cursed to be untouchable by magic (lol). When i read that she had been locked in a dungeon, i thought about the scariest types of dungeon ever.I think the most perverse type of cell is one with such a low ceiling that those within it wouldnt be able to stand straight, or would have to scuffle around on all fours. It'd be so oppressing, i'd just go insane. If it were dark and had no windows, insanity would only dawn much more quickly. As i lay on my bed with the book in my hand, imagining myself in such a cell, i thought i felt panic. o_o I think its great that humans have a habit of living in the present. They may think about the past or their near future, but they're always living in the present; basing their future on it, and modifying how they feel about their past based on it too. I guess its precisely because of this, that we dont usually frenzy over after-life. If there's such a thing. Yet, if there isnt, then what's in store? There is no such thing as 'nothing', because 'nothing' itself is 'something'. right? After death, is there anything? Feelings, thoughts, senses, sound,...all these cant possibly just disappear. There is more to life, than just physicality, so when death comes, where does life go? surely life and death are not opposites? Its annoying that the passing of life would be a mystery that no one can ever solve. Especially for someone who's been living in a place where many questions are often accompanied by answer schemes. I wonder how death feels. not how dying feels... that, i sort of can imagine, but death is a totally different matter altogether. Do you believe in atoms? What are atoms? Electrons orbiting nuclei that consists of protons and neutrons? heh. what a meaningless definition. its just defining a term with more terms. It doesnt make sense. you just keep listing more and more terms, until you realise that you dont know what an atom is. this is how the world feels like to me. its so complicated. complex, even. What am i? skin, bones, muscles, fats. see how we often answer questions that require definition by using mere terms? anything else that brims on abstract ideas or concepts are often too deep for me to consider. Things are often categorised into tangible and untangible. Yet, is there anything thats tangible? When you hold a wooden ruler, you think its tangible because you feel and see it. but yet, arent touch and sight types of senses that are quite intangible? i mean, the feeling of touching and seeing...those are not concrete, are they? So how do you truly know if the ruler is real? ): I should stop reading that stupid fairytale book. zzz. |
