Hello. You know how people lose faith from rationalizing about religion. Maybe God is just out of our box of thinking. Maybe we can never logically ingest God. Maybe connection with God is only established when we let go of pride and humble ourselves? After all, it was knowledge that separated us from Him initially when adam and eve ate from that tree.
Many people claim that religion just opiates society. To them, religion pacifies and fulfills the people’s need for a definitive worldview to account for the Great Unknown. Possible. Then again, to claim that religion is nothing but a cheap all-in-one solution for ignorance is a blatant reductive fallacy. There has to be SOME value to religion if it didn’t die from the countless revolutions the human race has undergone in the past millenniums. Scientists who climbed the rungs of natural sciences to its (ever-expanding) peak have admitted to observing too ubiquitous an order in the world to be attributed to random chance. The more you know, the more you don’t know. pseudo intelligent thinking stuff ends here. CHEER!
“While one person hesitates because he feels inferior, another is busy making mistakes and becoming superior.”
I’ve learnt in the past few days that self-belief is important. To learn to say “it’s ok” instead of bashing yourself, goes a long way in helping you achieve more. Learnt from Jun and Edward to lessen stress and approach problems rationally, and take every situation with a can-do attitude. I’ve been jogging and exercising a bit, and it helps to keep fatigue at bay. Also when you’re sick of studying go to youtube and search study tips. Or if you’re in need of inspiration search commencement speeches. Ellen’s was hilarious. She ended her speech with Lady GaGa’s song, just dance. Invariably, each speaker urged the various graduating batches to “forget about the fastlane. If you really wana fly. Just Harness your power to your passion.” -Oprah. Which reminds me of monsters v.s. alien (3D coolios) when the president exclaimed, “what would oprah do?”, a twist on the famous saying, what would Jesus do. Tsk tsk. Really. I mean, doing something you like is often effortless, although it might be a long haul compared to the conventional road. THE ROAD NOT TAKEN, OMG IOC.
Study session at ben’s place – FAIL haha buuuttt, I needed the long hours of staring helplessly at my crap of an EE.
Study session at SMU – SUCCESS and more to come.
Still NOT productive enough. But good job. *pat myself on the back.
