Life has many ups and downs, if things go great for you, and you end up soaring high. You just have so much more to fall down. Is it worth it? Do the efforts we put forth truly justify the return? Is happiness worth achieving only to let you down in the end? After all the hits and kicks in life one takes. Why is it we get back up and run forward for more? Our basic human desires dictates our actions and drives us towards social interaction. The majority of us crave the contact of another living being. By having this we feel needed, wanted, a sense of purpose and being. But why are we designed this way?
For basic survival all we truly need is food, shelter, water, and sleep. But why does interaction play such a vital role? What could drive us to love, hate, and just notice our fellow man? A select few in our species are capable of living alone, void of all contact. What seperates them for us? Is it actual easy for them, or are they just wired differently?
Over the ages our dependacy on one another has become way to apparent. But why is it that others can be so vile and cruel? What drives us to hurt, kill and bring suffering to our other man? Why is the viel so thin between love and hate? What could change such a human proclaimed strongest of all emotions for one spectrum to the other? Does our internal wiring get crossed? Are we ignoring our basic insticts as survial beings when we love? Or is it simply ignoring our humanity so to speak when we hate?
After all is said and done in our lives. Will any of it have mattered? Violence, and heartbreak has happened throughout the ages. Is mankind doomed to go in a vicious cycle of love and hate? Why keeps us from being capable of changing this? It's been a constant struggle throughout time. Why haven't we corrected it? Why does man continue to allow the suffering of others. Is it our choices, is this how we were truly invisioned and designed? Can we not avoid it, or is it possible to change the course of things. If that is the case, what has kept us from doing it?
How can such strong positive emotions be so entertwined with bad ones? How can two beings find themself on the positive end, and completely head south? What causes some to suffer so much during this, while the other shows little or no emotional effect? Which brings me back towards giving ones self towards another. How could someone do this when the obvious risks of heartbreak are so apparent. Why do humans need love, or think they need it to be happy?
Is the effort for all of it worth it? Thinking deeply on it it's easy to arrive on the conclusion that it isn't. Rolling over and just embracing the obyss of nothingness is so easy in comparison to all thats required for the other. But for some reason our basic need for survival never allows for us to simply rollover. Instead our emotions drive us straight back into the fire, no matter the risk of getting burned.
Divine design? Is it failed attempt, or a perfect one we like to comfort ourselves to think?
