Why? Is this not the ultimate question to everything? Why do we act the way we do? Why do we have emotions? Why do fall in love? What is the purpose to everything?
Sadly, there is no easy answer for any of these and I doubt there ever will be. Despite this I can't but help find myself asking these very questions every time an event happens in my life from the simple to the complicated. Why do they happen? Why do people make the choices they do? Do they not have the ability to conceptualize the consequences to their actions or do they choose not to. For me it is so simple to see and so easy to see the most likely outcome of someones choice.
I am not always correct but still why do people not consider these things when making a choice? Is the future really that scary to think about because I feel it not to be so. The future is ever changing, ever forming to the choices of the present. Every action we set into motion forms the future and what it holds for each of us, so I think it is very important to always think about every possibility. It is ignorant to not think about all that may come and to not consider every option.
Life is honestly such a simple game but people make it more complicated than what it has to be. They spend far to much time trying to read between the lines and being deceitful. Too many people have no understanding of how to be truthful because their lives have just been one big lie. They cannot figure out how to be honest because they have no understanding that things could be any different.
I cannot figure out why people act this way, no matter how much time I spend thinking about it. Lying and holding back the full truth will just lead to the problem being bigger later. It will just make the consequences far worse than they actually would have been. So why do people have this need to lie to avoid the result of their actions when it will eventually come back to them?
Going along the same lines, I cannot fathom why people get angry over things like religion. My god is better than your god, so I am going to kill you? Can anyone please explain to me how that makes any sense? How does that solve anything? Am I am the only person who thinks its utterly stupid to fight over such meaningless things. I would rather have someone come outright and say; "We are going to war because we want what they have," then having them come out and say; "We want to save them from themselves and bring to them what they wish they had." How does anybody buy into something like that? You can't force an idea upon someone. They will accept it only to get you away and then they will go back to their old ways.
The only way to in courage change is to plant that idea in a persons mind. Plant the seed of doubt and let it take grasp and grow into the cracks. In time the idea will grow or it will crumble, but it cannot be forced. Any idea must be raised like any plant with tenderness and careful hands. Forcing it will do nothing. So I really just don't get people at all. For all our intelligence we are the most illogical and stupid creatures to walk this planet. We are the only creatures able to wage war over something that doesn't exsist or that we have no proof of exsisting. Pure isanity.
