our response to intrinsic calls is not limited to finding a companion and
although we always contemplate on our next act most of the time we get
pulled by our needs resulting compulsive acts!
take a look
at your life, for example, how many decisions have you made so far? what
percent of them were made without the slightest pull from your
intrinsic needs?
again, I'm not disapproving. I'm the one who has done almost everything in favor of intrinsic values; based on his own view.
let
me ask you another question: what does make you happy when you're in the
death bed? and let me guess: "results". if you see results in your lived life at
the time of death you embrace the soil with happiness; and vice versa.
that
question was the introduction to this one: how are you gonna evaluate
the results? isn't it based on what you have learned in your life; upon
the foundation made by your family in your early life?
see
we get restricted to a lifestyle which makes our destiny and at the end
we analyze and score our effort based on the values defined by that
lifestyle which is in turn a web of decisions and actions.
and you may guess what percent of this web are made because of intrinsic pulls.
to be continued...
the intrinsic pull toward having a companion is not a thing that one can deny, including me.
I went down that road at the very beginning state of shaping my individual character, say early 20s.
(it was terrifically enjoyable and it was when I got the barest inkling of what solace would be, though I did not take it).
in general, some men are seeking a "wife", some a "doll" and others either going after someone in between or not having made up their mind yet. this classification can be applicable to, say, 80 percent of men.
to my observations, I think most of the men seeking a relationship are actually being pulled by the intrinsic call to find someone besides themselves ( what's happening in practice is different from having a companion and is inferior), though this call might be totally vague to them.
I'm not gonna take a dim view of it or condemn it, I'm just saying how strong this pull I see from where I'm standing. actually I cut men some slacks here.
هیچ فکر کردید که خدا کیه؟
مگه نمیگیم که مثلا اصغر آقا قصاب آدم با انصافیه؟ این توصیف اصغرآقاست دیگه.
همینطور وقتی میگیم خدا مثلا کریمه یا با سایر صفات ازش یاد میکنیم خب این توصیف خداست.
چرا ما برای اینکه صفات خدا رو درک کنیم چیزی که باعث میشه خدا رو بهتر بشناسیم وقت نمیذاریم؟
آیا خدا از هر چیز دیگهای برای ما اهمیتش بیشتر نیست؟ هوم؟
میگن آدم خودشو بشناسه خدا رو شناخته.
خب مگه دنیا رو برای خودمون نمیخوایم؟ مگه این نیست که کوچکترین عملمون و حتی نفس کشیدنمون هم برای خودمونه؟ خب این خودمون که رکن اعمال و اهداف ماست آیا ارزش شناختن نداره؟
عجیبه!
ما حتی خودمون رو هم نمیشناسیم =))
مسلمانها تو ایران شاید بهترین دین رو داشته باشند
ولی قطعا جاهلانهترین عادات و رسم و رسوم رو دارن
چیزایی که رسوم اعراب بوده اما تحت نام احکام اسلامی به خوردشون داده شده
دست کم دو سوم این رسوم یا اساسن اشتباهن یا مطابق زندگی امروزی و ایرانی نیستن
سردمداران دین هم قائل به بروزرسانی احکام عمومی نیستن
اینها نهایتا در بهترین حالت عملکردشون حکم امپیتری پلیر رو داره که احکام رو حفظ کردن و از بر میخونن
عالم دین مثل عالم مهندسی مکانیک مثل عالم پزشکی و سایر علوم وقتی بروز نشه وقتی نتونه شرایط و اقتضائات روز و جدید رو در علم خودش اعمال کنه مسلما فاقد ارزش کاربردیه
فرض کن الان میخواستن با علم 30 سال پیش خودرو تولید کنن
واقعا فکر میکنید احکام (نه ایدئولوژی) 10 -15 قرن قبل هنوز کارآمد باشه؟ اونم برای هر جامعهای؟
تازه یکیشون میگفت کاش همون احکام بدون دستکاری تجویز و اجرا میشد!
For so long I have been thinking about getting a phd and now that I have applied to some universities I weirdly do not pursue it anymore!
You may not believe that it's been quite a while that I've got answer from UMass Amherst but I haven't checked it yet!!!
Not even checking the answer to my application is what? Weird? Stupid?
Who the heck am I?!
Where am I?
What am I thinking?!
Am I thinking at all?
I don't wanna do a phd anymore, but why? why? After these many years!!!
I just know I must have a problem!
I feel blue,
oddly, I feel blue,
and nothing,
not even these fragrant minutes,
turning off on the citrus branches;
not this word's honesty,
lying in the silence between this gillyflower's two leaves;
no, nothing would disenthrall me from the invasion of environs' emptiness.
yet I am still looking forward to getting all this behind.
be sure! without your help I would fall;
I would fall from the firmament of being-
like a latent star aborted in its nascent moments.
without your help means not having your hand in mine.

Pickering: have you no morals, man?
Doolittle: no, no. I cant afford them.
Doolittle: neither could you if you were as poor as me.
