sighs & sorrows
into 1/5 of my foundation course.
this time, full of new reflections.
for one, i realised the difficulty it is to pull out from one's comfort zone, and into unknown.
or worse, into dread.
life's never smooth sailing i guess, and its hard to stick with the present forever in these times.
a new environment causes stress to animals. extreme conditions can kill critters.
similarly, man breaks down in an equal manner.
heightened anxiety, increased heartrate, accompanied by unstable breathing.
perhaps added stress, emotional turbulence, crying..
thankfully, with an ability to think, to apprehend, to reflect, we cope, usually quite well.
and over the initial worries i conquer, standing ever more prepared,
somewhat satisfied with the adaptability so possessed,
yet, slightly sad that these strengths come not from the sources we expect.
just, slightly sad that a litmus test turned sour.
i might as well continue a second part,
where i question things like social circle, friends.
man, born to be social beings,
they cannot escape civilisation.
i start to wonder if independence is really just but another philosophy, another set of hypothesised theory.
is man free from the connections of the outside world? or are we just oppositely dependant.
i think, even introverts need to depend on others.
even someone like me.
Ah. i probably knew that all along, but i guess i just thought about it.
