42

yes, i couldnt finish typing my post the other day because of the most obvious reason, i was running out of time, even now, im racing agaisnt bad weather.....who knows, maybe lightning will strike my pc.

back to the point....if i had one.....how does one symbolize a particular element? to make the equation more complex, how does one symbolize life? well, the honest opinion of mine would be:
you simply cant, unless, UNLESS you wish to see everything in anything.

what do you see in 42?
a lottery number?
car plate?
price of a book?
address?

look again.....

it can be anything you want it to be.
the whole idea is that, why do you need someone who doesnt live in your world, to judge your life's worth?
they dont know the things that you've been through. and yet, they claim they know you better than you know yourself. everything has a limit, and that just crossed it thrice!

no matter what happens, you decide how much you have lived for. dont compare yourself with others.....whether its some famous leader like gandhi, or plainly the people you sit with during recess. if you think comparing grades is the same to that........dont bother reading anymore, just click X up there.

what i have fail to grasp is that why is everything sum up to just one factor.......what others see in you, when the question should have been what do you see in yourself? "dont know" doesnt mean nothing, it means undiscovered, and that where "soul-searching"/ "self-discovery" is needed. ( i hate that word!) in many ways, people wanted recognition from others, as its a justification of their existence, they want to be known, to be appreciated, to be seen.........to the extent they live for others.

rip off that price tag of yours, and start writing "not for sale".

haha...i see what you mean. I sometimes find myself caring what people think of me and judge myself based on what people say. And being a part of that idiotic group, i must say that i do that because...they give an answer to who i am when i can't for the simple reason that i don't know who i really am and how much ive lived for. But of course, i dont orientate my life based on people's judgement; maybe i just feel comfortable knowing what people see in me instead of only my views. Anyways, how's your debate coming up? My agama marks are...ok. I got an A1 recently so the ustazah cant argue about me not being in class hehe. Are you going for HELP??
