Why is a very good question, it’s never the how that interests me but the why. How was the Atomic bomb invented doesn’t interest me, but why was it invented that is important. If everyone stops and asks himself: why? Why am I doing this? What is it for me? What is it for the world? If everyone did that, the world would definitely be a better place. How many times a day do you do something and find yourself at the end of the day wondering: why in the world did I do this? How many times did we-mankind- stopped and asked ourselves the same question? Why Wars? Why pollution? Why? The answer of the why might be relatively right, or wrong. But the presence of an answer, just the presence of one no matter how wrong it is, is more than enough to stop the people from committing half of the wrong doings out there.
So you have to throw a why every now and then, but is it enough? For some people it worked but for me it didn’t. I found out it’s not always enough to ask yourself why? But you have to ask why others are doing that, and why is that happening to me. It’s never easy to get the perspectives, for we are selfish beings. We are the first to condemn someone on theft but the last ones to ask why he did it, some people, when started to ask why do villains act villainish they began to sympathize with him and that’s ok, but then they sympathized with what he did and that is absolutely NOT ok. You can sympathize with a child molester because he himself was once a victim earlier in his life, but you can't sympathize with the act, in fact he should be strictly punished.
Do you have an ugly feature? An oversized nose or your teeth are a mess? Everyone has at least one of those, some where even lucky to have two or three of them. Ever stopped and asked yourself why do I have this? What is the reason, other than for me to be an easy target for stupid people making fun of that feature? If you look at it you will find that because of this “ugliness” you became more beautiful, internally yes but even more shockingly externally. This feature made you more understanding and more sympathizing: that is how it made you beautiful in the inside. But on the outside: it made you approachable, loveable: because even though we pursue perfection in ourselves, we detest it in others, no one wants a perfect life partner that reminds him of how imperfect he is.
Bottom line, why is hell of a question. And its answer is worthy of being pursued no matter how other convinced you it isn’t.
