tunneling towards the center of the universe.....
well i'm not really sure what the subject really means. should one take it as a literal idea, where one is actually tunneling towards the center of this blind belief of the universe? can you actuallly physcially tunnel through an enigma? or should one actually think of this as a metaphor for some amazingly basic notion? well i think it's a li'l bit of both. for example, love. or even lust for that matter, can be such a crazy thing in life. we are each instilled with our subjective opinions on these abstract ideas, which makes it SEEM so basic. when we think we are in love/lust the exact definition is glaring at us and we are happy to accept our subjective ideas. yet when something happens, an argument for example, causes one to lose focus on what was directly in front of their eyes. everything goes to the shits, or at least for moments at a time. i think i'd rather live my life behind this John Rawls-ian (he's this one famous philosopher, i just learned about him in my philosophy class, somewhat of an interesting read, but i have learned that philosophers are longwinded and mostly confuse me when they speak, so i try my hardest to catch up, with no avail sometimes) type of notion, where we live behind this "veil of ignorance", but my conception would be a little different. my "veil", would be this life of where one can understand the anomoly which confuses and troubles them the most. therefore i could understand the what hell love/lust is about/for. i'm stumped, at the moment i have no clue nor could any of my convictions come anywhere near a "decent" attempt at the definition, much less a "good" attempt at the definition. i also think that love/lust can leave someone feeling like they are, "tunneling towards the center of the universe". left with nothing in their hands despite the extraneous efforts wasted trying to define this definition-less concept. i guess what i'm trying to say is that i think i'mma give up on a love for a while. love is for the birds.
