- Dreams, Passion, Life, Time, Love, Entropy?
- Humans. Humans. Humans.
- It was the time I heard "Humans gonna hume." I realized that we are animals, with a broader understanding of our surroundings. Cursed, or blessed with ability to dream,
- to craft different worlds, to paint pictures, to make tools, and think better. We are also introspective, but that's a bit limited in scope.
- Then, I heard "We don't understand our motivations". Well, we don't. Why do we stand? Why do we run? Feelings, emotions, passions, dreams. All driven by internal motivations,
- and some external push? Well well.
- Then, I saw "Up". The entry scene was greatly filled with emotions. The music encouraged the feelings that the animated sequence was building. It showed how dreams are
- impacted by several factors. At the end of it, what will you think? Life happened? Well, I don't like to think that way, but I will end up saying that eventually. Tired,
- exhausted, fatigued. I will say that, and I will also say - "I did try my best", which I will most likely mean with all of my heart. However, it feels sweet. Sweet to see
- life happen, as it was shown in the animated sequence. It felt like a innocent way to live, and based on "social conditioning", I feel like I should lead my life like that.
- Abstracted away from the understanding of cogs and wheels of what drives the universe. Why? Because it feels like the subjects in the animated sequence are oblivious of
- entropy and time, and moving blindly towards their goals. It feels highly passionate of them to have been doing that. However, that would be foolish of me. However, I am
- succumbing to romanticism. Life can be seen through romantic lens for sure - "Oh what passion!", "He never gives up!", "Look, he stood up.", "He succeeded even after the injury.",
- "What zeal!". However, entropy tears things apart (possibly not always, look at a structured organism like us or the amoeba that's sitting on your nose right now! ;-) )
- Well, I don't say - forgo that stupid romanticism. I would rather say, have the romanticism and also a realistic point of view. It doesn't do good to run with a broken leg.
- Life isn't anime where you will suddenly awaken your hidden power when it's all over, because when the wall of time and entropy hits you - either you run away from it, or you
- get destroyed horribly into bits and pieces. Atleast, that's true for now. Maybe, we would succeed in dealing with time and entropy nicely. I am sure a lot of people who faced
- the hordes of Genghis Khan might have felt motivated to save their villages, and towns, and castles...and then they perished.
- In real world, individual feelings have very less probability of doing something impactful.
- That's all I wanted to say.
