on riding the see-saw
okay, so i've finally hauled my ass from the bed to actually try to start writing here again. i know i haven't entered an entry in weeks and you can blame my pc for that since it crashed last week, making me lose all of my mp3s, pictures, and my sanity, well, almost.. good thing the pc's up and running now, new and improved! yeah boi! well enough of such of chimera, let's go start writing something that's actually worth writing about...
these past few weeks have been both a mixture of good and bad. i guess that's how everything is given in this world. you can't expect to always have your way all the time, with good comes the bad and vice versa. it's like, it has been there since the making of the universe, like a law, or perhaps to be safe, a theory of convergence where good converge and go hand in hand with the bad. i don't know if that's a good thing or not, since like me personally, when i get really happy, there's also this hint of dread that comes with it, like im dreading that this certain happy moment will end soon and be replaced by some negative emotion, like it hinders the happy moment to last or to fully be embraced in that moment but that's just me. however, if we look at it in a larger scale, what is good or bad for one person does not necessarily equal something good or bad for another. we all have our own subjective definitions of good and bad, like perhaps, what i consider as something good that happened to me might equal or perhaps maybe the cause or result of something bad that happened to another person. and i guess that is what makes this theory of convergence work, our varying definitions of good and bad, it sort of asserts some balance into this world. it's like riding the see-saw as a kid, it's a give and take, in order for the see-saw to work you have to be okay with the fact that you can't always stay on top all the time, you have to go down so the other can go up and vice versa, much like life, you have to make way for others to have their moment as well to experience something good, for you to stay low and allow the balance and while you're down on the ground, take comfort in the fact that with little patience, you'll soar and feel thw wind in your face again, with the help of the other in this seesaw called life.
