The fact that I'm returning to blogging on this very night says quite a bit about me.
What exactly, I can't really tell though.
Anyway, neighhhhh.

Inception.
"Would you take a leap of faith with me?"
"Where to?" I asked, shrugging my shoulders.
"To the place of your dreams. Close your eyes. Can you do that for me?"
"My dreams? But I have dreamt of so many different places. Where are you taking me?" I fired back with another question, eyes fully opened.
"You may not know yourself but deep down in your subconscious, there's just that one place. Come with me and you'll see things beyond what your sight can show you."
"But why can't you tell me where are we going first? I can't follow you unless I'm well informed of our destination."
"It's not that I wish to conceal anything from you but in this journey, there will be no final destination; there is just the journey, and the journey only."
"There cannot be journeys without a destination. You must stop at a certain point on a map. There's no way that any travel can last indefinitely. It is simply absurd!"
"That's because you're seeing but you're not truly seeing. I know all of this sounds mightily confusing but my role is not to help clear up the muddy waters. I'm merely here as your guide, to bring you to take the first step towards this journey. All will be made clear once you take this leap with me."
"What if I really don't want to? Find out my heart's deepest desire. I'm afraid of it, what I might I see scares me."
"Its called a leap of faith for a reason; you got to have a little to make this jump."
"I remember now. This isn't the first time I'm asked, is it?"
"It matters not; the important part now - is you giving me your trust, closing your eyes and take off; into a different world, of wonderful colors and stemming with imagination, yours specifically."
"You don't understand, I'm frightened to venture into the unknown; into the darkness, where I can barely see what's in front of me, much less take another step forward."
"Just give me your hand, and step into the light."
Okay.

Dogs & Rovers.
What we do everyday, waking up, going about our routine, scrolling through fb news feed. In the end, we try to find meaning to our existence, to justify the reason for our continued function, if there is one. There's so many that one can go about it, and whether we realize it or not, we're doing essentially the same thing at some sort of level. Just struggling against life and at the same time, to know why we're even here at all; else, we would be some kind of alien worm living under a rock in Mars, trying to avoid NASA and all their awe-named rovers. There must be one; a purpose of man's eventual evolution into what he is today.
Like beings of lower caliber, we're just too dumb to realize it. Take this example:
A dog's instinct tells him that the human feeding him is his human; that he have to protect him and his family by barking madly at the postman. His ability to think revolves around chasing his tail, tearing up sofas and basically just being irresistibly cute. When he's rewarded or punished, he might know why but because he's an animal without higher cerebral abilities, he doesn't exactly know why.
Not sure if anyone's following this crooked analogy but we're like dogs in this case but without our own human, our reason for living; the ultimate goal of life. There's nobody who would go about rewarding or punishing us for shit we did or didn't do, that's why we invented a system based solely on this, to fulfill a need that we desperately crave in our deepest level.
Today is the first of 2014, I should someplace doing something else rather than this. You know, more meaningful than cramming for finals, I bet there are loads of other greener pastures elsewhere than this rotten patch I'm standing on.
