Had forgotten I even had a blog! But then, now that I have remembered, why not post something. Things have changed a lot since the first post. That was the end of first year of College life, now is approaching the end of third year and what a journey it has been. But it's not of the journey I wish to speak right now. It's not even of some random thoughts that came during the journey, I can't say when or where or how (but then even if I could, would it have made a difference?).
I have to admit that I have been really lax in recording those thoughts, but the question is that even if I had recorded them, what purpose would it have served. Very well, it would have given a reference to compare future thoughts with, but how would that affect life as we know it? Life as we know it.......do we know it? What is "knowing"? It is defined as "be aware of through enquiry, observation or information". I would add to this..." and to be able to predict 'anything' regarding the object of our focus". The object may be an object or a human. What interests me are humans. we often say, "I know him/her" so mechanically, without even realizing we are saying it. Same goes for many other words in our language. For example, believe. It can be used in two totally opposite contexts- "to be absolutely sure of something", I believe whatever she/he said, and "to suppose or think something is right", I believe we have met? But what about this, I believe I'll act in this particular way when this happens or I believe he'll vote for you. Which of the two meanings would you assign to it? What was the point? The point was to question if language means anything. And now that it has been questioned, now what? The eternal question. Now what? Achieve one thing you wanted to achieve, then what next? Aren't we always asking ourselves that!
I wonder where this post is going, perhaps nowhere, perhaps somewhere. You can draw your own conclusions.
