life is one big mystery...

it always takes somehthing dramatic or unexpected for people to start thinking deep about things...be it about life in general..or just anything...but have u ever wondered what it really means to live? what life actually is?

we all assume we know...some just live and take each day as it comes for granted..others push so hard just to make the one more breath count...but what is life? what is living?

we have so many things to do to fill our lives with...whether they are by choice or enforced or just necessary...but is it actually really a necessity to carry out all these activities? like...why do we need to study...besides getting that really expensive piece of paper and then go out to contribute to the booming economy where we end up struggling for survival and face constant competition...is it worth it? are all the sleepless nights, the accumulation of sleep debts, the cramming sessions, the strain you put urself through, all the sacrifices..are they really all worth it?

its just an evil viscious cycle which we cant seem to get outselves out of...sometimes we want out but society says "no no no"....some wld say "oh i dont conform" but do we really have the option of not giving in to confirmity?

then u look around and see ur frens...they r going through the same crap ur going through...its comforting ur not alone...but...y...y do we do this?

we say we appreciate life...but do we actually know the meaning n essence of life? do we actually know what we are talking about?

so far, this year has been quite interesting in terms of emotions...not only for me i dare say...the events which have unfolded have truely been unimaginable...its like someone up there is kicking us back in line and asking us to take a good look at what we have become, what we are doing with our lives and what we have planned for ourselves...

loss of life always is tragic...especially when it is one so shortly lived and someone whom u knew...personally especially...but the value of having lived life to the fullest is what counts and really matters...so i guess what we all can do is be happy he is in a much better place...and then reflect on our lives and see if it is really the life we want..

taking things for granted seems so easy...and even easier to condemn...but actions speak so much louder than words...

our networking and spreading of info has proven to be really good...quite a few times this year...but the only prob is...its depressing news that seems to be hogging the limelight and airwaves...

at the rate things are going...i really what to see what else is in store for us...life and its mysteries really nvr fail to surprise... *sigh*
