Change

It's funny how at every point in my life I have thought about how much more sense the world has made to me, how much I have ''matured'' over the year. Each time I think that I finally get the picture, it makes perfect sense. Alas, that perception breaks down again and again as time passes. Even now I think that I didn't know what the heck was going on a year ago, and I am sure a year from now I'll look back and think "what was I thinking." I don't know how long this constant 'nurturing' of mind will take place, how much mor the world would make sense to me. It feels that it would last forever, the pieces ever-so-slowly falling into place. I look back at past events now with a different perspective; what brings this I am not sure, experience perhaps. Every day it seems that salvation for the mind is near, yet only later am I to realize that it was as far from the truth as it could be. Till that time that I fear will never happen, I am forced to go through life, trying to untangle the web that surrounds me.

Great Things

Recently I met a guy who I felt was unjustly deprived of something he deserved. Favoritism or whatever he deserved the thing that someone else got and I was sad and agry for him. Sad for obvious reasons. But his response made me a bit angry...
He said that he would not protest, but is instead happy because "God will have something good in store for me. He always has great things for me."
What I feel is that it isn't the thing that God gives that makes it so great, it's the belief that it will be great that makes it so great. Now, I'm sure that no matter what happens, even if he God forbids loses a leg or something as a result of this, he will still consider it great; he will be happy with whatever he gets. It may be enviable, but is it really that God always have great things in store for you? Isn't it so that you believe that you did not get something you deserved because God will repay you with great kindness and give something really 'great' in return for this. Isn't it the belief that makes it so great. No matter what happens, the events that unfold will affirm that belief. This maybe an enviable form of optimism, but I feel he should have fought for what was rightly his, because even if he did fight for it, I'm sure he would have gotten something great in return.
