Lips Sealed Shut

Are you familiar with this conversation;

"Stop arguing and just listen to what I said!"
"Why would I do that"
"Because I'm your parent(or seniors) and I know what's best for you!"
"So you're implying that you're better than god?"
"I didn't say that! Now don't you smart-mouthed me young man"
"So you're implying that I'm smart?"
"Why is it so hard for me to talk to you? Why don't you just do what you're told?"
"Because you're not god and I'm not worshipping you."

Maybe the last line rarely comes out. Or maybe not. Such conversation are commons occurrence that involves parents, children, spouses, partners etc.. Like I mention in my previous post, people tends to dictates people. It's in their nature. But they can almost never explained it properly why are they like that. They don't know what they're doing and they expect us to follow them? That's totally absurd. What Einstein have to say about this?

He got the the point through. If you don't understand it, then you by definition are stupid. At least by my definition you are. Maybe you got another words for that, but it doesn't matter. What matter is that why should we blindly follow the one who is "blind"?

What can you tell me about the blind leading the blind? The blind may lead the blind to a certain point but it's not practical. It, would not even be considered an option unless there are no other options. And what's more is that when the following blind started to see, and try to convince the blind leader that he/she can see, only to be told by the blind leader that he/she is a fool. He/she is still blind so keep following him. How can he/she convince the blind "leader" that the "leader" has been blind for his whole life and he/she can help him see simply by opening his eyes? Should we force his eyes to open? Will it be better for him? Or simply let his eyes close and let him stray "happily" blinded? Like they say;

"Ignorance is Bliss"

The truth really hurts. I can generally put it that if it doesn't hurt, it's not the truth. Life is never easy. It's a test. It wouldn't be a test if it's easy right? Well, it can be easy if you are prepared of some sort. Just like the public exams, professionals exams etc.. The test of life is basically the same. You need a guide of some sort. And for me, the only true guide is the GOD. Einstein believes in god. Do you? Well, let's us hear more from Einstein;

Well, that's most probably true. People using people. I think I read about it somewhere before. Oh well. Let me quote a smart phrase from Eddie Griffin;

"It doesn't matter who the messenger is, did you get the message?" 

-Eddie Griffin

That can't be further from the truth. People keep fighting "in the name of religion". Shit! They didn't even know or fully understand their religion. If they truly get the messages, people would not be doing anything. people will only be kept thinking. People will become smarter and smarter but keep feeling stupider. But that is not what GOD intended. What happens is what GOD intended. GOD want "stupid" people to exist to feed the "smart" people and GOD want the "smart" people to keep teaching the "stupid" people. Or else we got nothing to do in this world and it wouldn't be fun. Maybe next time I'll tell you the boring story of being an angel or demon. But that's for next time.

Until next time, salam.

Reverse Engineer

Everybody knows what an engineer does right? No. Well, to very simply put it, they create a system or mechanism by using materials and energy that they gathered from nature to "solve" "problems". Why I say "solve" and "problems"? Because, by using the theory of "Equilibrium of Life", nothing can actually be changed. It can however be converted to another forms, just like energy. Well, it's only logical because everything is made out of energy. The so called "problems" is only converted to another "problems". Problems for me may actually not be a problem for you.

What is interesting is that the origin of the word according to http://oxforddictionaries.com;


Origin:

Middle English (denoting a designer and constructor of fortifications and weapons; formerly also as ingineer): in early use from Old French engigneor, from medieval Latin ingeniator, from ingeniare 'contrive, devise', from Latin ingenium (see engine); in later use from French ingénieur or Italian ingegnere, also based on Latin ingenium, with the ending influenced by -eer
ref:http://oxforddictionaries.com/definition/english/engineer

Now I know. The purpose of the early engineers is solve the early problems, war. But as you can plainly see, they construct fortifications and weapons. Get it? One problems i.e, war, two "solutions", i.e,   fortifications and weapons, one which trumps the others so that brings the equilibrium back on track. So, generally speaking, they didn't do anything. The war is still there and it's getting more tedious. I thought the engineers are suppose to eradicate the problems. Looks like it's only what I made to believed. Nothing like that in the dictionary.

Actually, the  reality is that engineers are problem makers. Like for instances;

Transportation problems (slow moving, terrain limitation) > transportation created > transportation problems (traffic jams(slow moving is back!), accidents), financial problems (loans, insurance, taxes).

Telecommunications problems (long range, vacuum) > telecommunications device created >  Telecommunications problems (emotions and physical contact not relayed, accidents), social problems (boundaries between people diminishes, discreet relationships, long range explosive devices).

You make out the rest yourselves. Yes, I am lazy, to a certain degree. So, the real question is; Is there any problem solvers out there? If we "solves" problems but only to create more problems, thus that makes us "problems spawn-er", because the problems keep on breeding.

What is it that GOD's trying to proves/show us? That we humans are nothing? What ever that we do is useless? Didn't saw that one coming do you? As a matter of fact, that is exactly what I know and believe in. Do you ever feel that too? Do you keep asking yourselves day by day, week by week, what should I do today? I'm always feeling weak. Yeah you are. You know it. But you didn't realize it. Or you just simply wouldn't want to accept it. You struggle every single day just to make sure you live another day, not caring about anything but yourselves, but for what? What are your purposes? My GOD says;


Surat Adh-Dhāriyāt (The Winnowing Winds) - سورة الذاريات
51:56

Sahih International
And I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship Me.
ref:http://quran.com/51/56

This verse is very popular and oftentimes misused. Well, people don't actually choose to think. They tend to follow and be dictated. And the media is the tool to dictate people who doesn't prefer to think. Even when I'm just posting my opinions, some may accept this as dictation and follow it blindly. Please read the warning.

What is "worship"? Don't just accept when people tell you that it's that thing you do five time a day, where you stand straight, bowing and prostrating etc or putting your hands in front of you facing upwards and says something Arabic that even you don't understands. It's everything that you do while keeping GOD in mind. Maybe we'll discuss more on this at another moment.

Till next time, salam.
