a good question posed by a good friend, why do we go to uni? oddly i never really ruminated on this subject (as much of a thinker i thought i was), only faintly touching the surface once upon a time. i think my main purpose in uni would be to achieve my goal, or at least the goal i used to hold so high up in the air... now? i don't think i've got enough eq to survive in the harsh world without a degree (which isn't worth much, just levels the playing field a little), so there you got it.

today's a special day, i think i need it.

ever heard of the 'fight or flight response'? it's a biological term, and i think it applies to life as well. for me most of the times i choose to flee (or don't we all?). standing tall and facing it sometimes hurts too much? i don't even know whether there's any hurt, though logically speaking there should be. no worries though to those who care, i'm alright... was going to write life goes on, yet that would seem a tad bit too cynical and that i'm in essence not alright. but i am, truly am, there are just so many others with far greater struggles that all of mine pales in comparison. however that's not my reason for saying i'm alright, if not almost everyone would be truly okay. i'm okay because i know despite all this i'm comforted and He who is forever there with me... truly Amen.
