From soda to green tea

To be honest, I grow tired of waiting.

Waiting for what, you ask?

I'm not sure myself. Perhaps you, dear reader, can allow me the privilege of gazing upon such irony.

Irony for what, you ask?

I'm not sure myself. Perhaps you, dear reader, can deny me the privilege of encompassing such humor.

Humor for what, you ask?

For that, dear reader, I have an answer.

There are many ways to define the concept of life. Many of us seek these answers in an encyclopedia or a dictionary as part of a school project. Others spend every day of their journey seeking this meaning. Others choose to elude this troublesome question and take a short breath. But for the most part, the human race does not know what life truly means. There are objective, subjective, biological, religious, metaphysical, and philosophical answers to this concept.

However; in the end, these answers lead to a big part of life itself. Irony is to be blamed. A wide gamma of people define Life through many, different views; yet, we all tend to think we know the answer, and that is why we look for it. We think we know the answer. We can't be truly sure.

As such, Life brings me to conclude that irony plays a big part of it.

Irony for what, dear reader?

I still don't know.

Waiting for what, dear reader?

I still don't know.

Pandora's Cube

The world needs change.

What kind of change, exactly? Well, every individual has his or her own answer. However, the majority of human beings can agree that the world needs change.

Some people tend to believe there is no right or wrong; there are only different points of view. Others believe society is destined to follow certain laws of morale and ethics imposed by... those before us. Hence, good is defined as following the law, while evil is circumventing it. Whichever our view is, we can all agree that the world needs change.

But what exactly is change?

Let's start with a phrase familiar to many of us: "People don't like change; they fear it." So, if people don't like change, why seek it? If it were only easy to answer all questions in life. Life is a paradox; in fact, agreeing that life is a paradox is a paradox itself. In dealing with subjects such as "change" and "good and evil", one must take a very observant point of view. Even the smallest drop of bias can contaminate a beautiful lake.

The question has been set. The answers are eager to come out of their cage. But do we, as a human race, need to free these answers? Do we want to? Or do we fear them as we fear a caged lion?

Only change can tell.
