Finding another loophole?

Music: The Killers - Mr Brightside

I've still been trying to completely decipher the multitude
of eccentricities, complexities and coincidences of life. It
just so happens that everytime you seem to be able to
comprehend, or 'get it', something occurs that may either
dispel parts of your theory or even worse: totally trash it.

Either way, it just proves that nothing one tries to ascertain
about life ever stays on track. Its like entering the Reader's
Digest Annual Sweepstakes. They keep sending you letter
after letter, trying to convince you that you're definitely
going to strike a win every year. But of course my mother
has never received the golden letter. Its quite stupid I must
actually admit. How people always get mesmerized into
believing that they've definitely got it.

So maybe its like Murphy's Law. Whatever you hope doesn't
happen, always does. It's a law. But yet there's hardly anything
scientific about it, making it an intangible truth of life.

Well I was hoping I would always finish my posts on time.
But somehow or other I never do. Just like this instance.
Ain't it funny.

Getting a mental-block

Music: Jennifer Lopez feat Fabulous - Get Right

Blogging is incredibly interesting. Some people type
rubbish sometimes but that probably means that they're
full of rubbish anyway. Why do we refer to it sometimes
as updating? Isn't updating more like a business report,
a broadsheet news article or something more formal?

Updating sounds more like a duty or requirement that
you have to fulfill on a regular basis but I really don't
think thats what blogging is about. Its more like recording
your thoughts and expressions when you feel like doing
so. But perhaps we only blog about the positive things
that are happening, the triumphs and successes. Unless
you're a severely depressed or maniacal person, most of
us would tend to reflect on our experiences in a good light
or at least in a way that glorifies us. It may not be glaringly
obvious but there's a hint or scent of it somewhere along
the post. Maybe it isn't so much as bias as it is of opinion.

And perhaps thats whats life is about. The gift (or is it curse?)
of viewing things in a certain perspective. Do we really have
to acknowledge everything in a particular way and conform to
certain norms. Well I suppose life would be less complex and
easier to go through, decisions will be straightforward and the
omniscient force of order will be appeased. But then again,
where's the fun in that?
