I tried to understand philosophy, or mostly the aesthetic part but i always failed. It seemed i couldnt grasp the concept,I always felt like I was the
retard who didnt understand the subjective view of someones great mind sitting next to me in class.
What i failed to realize, philosophy is the concept of making something complicated universal, to all ears, so they can embrace the love of wisdom of
great minds.
I seen so much subjective narratives that fails with bringing a simple message, yet a complicated subjective view on imagination that means nothing to
some, yet more than anything to others..
When i sit down with the modern philosophers of today, they embrace words instead of trying fill a sentence, and in the end, they get lost in the maze
of nothingness.
A friend of mine bought a fancy house, just a feet from the sea, he is the CEO i think or some important something in computer stuff, ( Feels weird
being friends with someone yet never know what they do for a living, when i think about it.. ) yet i always asked him;" Are you happy? " And he
always replies;" I dont know. "
So i said to him;" This is great, i can kayak myself over here! " The weekend came, and I had nothing planed, so i took the kayak and paddled myself
on a one hour journey and ended up just outside his house and watched the birds fly over his house. I took up my lunchbox, ate, and just watched
nature being itself.
A few minutes later he came with his sports car cabriolet and his fancy suite,he saw me and said;" You been here long?" I looked at him, and said;"
I dont know, the phone is in my backpack. "
He looked stressed as usual;" I got S#load of work to do" was all he said with a sad face.
I took out the fishing rod and said;" No problem "
Hours passed by, and i wondered if i should crash at his house or paddle myself home,but i caught herring in the loads and thought;" Lets enjoy a
meal.. I pulled up the kayak on his plot. Prepared the fish and started cooking on his fancy expensive barbeque grill, when all of a sudden i hear in
the background;" Noo, not fish!!! its gonna ruin it! "
I said, " No its not, you finished with your work, yet? "
I saw his face, his work is never finished, all the money, yet no time..yet he always says;" I have a pension plan "
He sat down and said;" Im so tired.. " and he looked at me;" You, you always look so happy, without any worries. Its like you disappear into the
animal kingdom, and come out re-freshed, re-newed. You are gone sometimes for months and then suddenly appear. I wish i....." I knew what he meant..
The fish was ready to eat, he took a bite and said;" This was actually good " I pointed just down from his porch and said;" You have a free food,
yet no, fishing rod.."
The sun was setting, we sat down both of us, and enjoyed it, not a word. Just watched the sunset in all its glory..
And then he said;" I thought owning a house would make me happy, it was the thought of decorating it, building the fence, laying a new roof..
And the sports car, i wanted to drive in to the sunset..And then you come with a kayak.. I dont know anymore"
I looked at him, and said;" Just embrace the moment instead " And we watched the sun set and i feel a sleep on his porch..
