   The problem with understanding oneself is that it is almost always short lived and very much related to who u are at that point in time. If u wait long enough u will be back where u started. My only understanding from life is this most quests for understanding are just "fillers" placed there to lead us from point a to point b or to distract us from noticing that most of our lives are rail mounted.

   plush - glad the words helped. thanks for pushing me to blog.. i'll def try and post more :)
   
   mcx - tht's the beauty of life.. don't you think? it allows you one moment of perfect understanding and it also allows you to forget it, imagine how boring our lives would be if we had it all figured out already!
   
   but yeah i do agree with the filler bit. strategic distractions.

   At the risk of being pop philosophical on everyone I have to say the only thing it all comes down to is how much you care about absolutely anything at any point of your life. (Thats almost always defines who you are at that point in time). Also in the same breath its when we stop caring that most of us get undeniably lost. In all of the quotes from the original post the person still cares perhaps just a tad too much or little about something, right or wrong as it may be. Does it really matter that much? I guess what I am trying to say is that a lot of people preach that we shouldn't care about this or that or should care more about a different set of this or that, I believe its best to leave each to his or her own choices. conventional wisdom is but the attempt of a fool to sell his own brand of foolishness. That includes the current attempt.
   
   note: I am just babbling its 2am and I have been watching back to back episodes of Scrubs. I apologize.

   @sou I just realized why i am so addicted to your blog. Feels a bit like JNU. I am forced to state an opinion, make a comment, listen to others comments or opinion or simply to just smile at the absurdities of certain things.
   
   In the most non gay was possible (well ok maybe a little gay) i must say, i miss my roommate. I miss waking him up at 4am, just before the final exams, and mindlessly rambling about things and topics not even my more literate ancestors had a clue about. I miss the freedom of random words colliding and crashing and sometimes forming ideas. Ideas that were as easily tossed aside and forgotten as the lousy grades their creation resulted in. (for me, not for my roommate because while I slept in to make up for a well earned sleep my roommate dragged the carcass of what remained of him, after lodging with me for almost a year, to class to pick up any pointers on how to find his way to an A while I rummaged through the dumpsters and snuggled int a B.
   
   sorry rambling again, must sleep, must sleep....

   If things are predictable then there is no fun in life.
