"Lately I have been thinking about life."

Good day chaps. Hope you're all well.

Lately I have been thinking about life, especially what happens when I turn "adult" ... The whole "stages" thing, the labels. Baby until 2, child until whatever age it is... Can they really label a thing like that? I'm 14. I don't feel it. Mostly I feel about 16... I dunno, maturity for some and immaturity for others, I just find it weird. Who are "they" to label us as one big blob of an object... we don't really need anything stamped onto us, human being will do just fine for me...

Anyway, yeah, when I'm older... What will I be doing? My work, my life, love, situation... what's gonna happen? Should I even be asking or questioning the plan life has for me? What about you? Will I know you? Is there a bigger picture at all? Can we change it? Would I, given the chance? These are questions (I think, anyway) that we will only know the answer to when we confront the problem/situation itself... Maybe we won't even know we've made a life changing decision. Life can't be planned, though, can it? Not really. The little things that make the big things happen, they can't be stopped. Stupid things. People. It's such a mystery, but I guess that's how it's meant to be. Who are we.. mere mortals to question it?

Incidentally I came across a book today in Touchwood, Solihull, in the shop "Books Etc"... The Reason Of Things I think it's called... there's a few more, i.e. The Mystery Of Things... I sat down and read this book in the shop (they had leather chairs in there! Wow) and read the first few parts, as I didn't have enough to buy it. Damn. It was amazing. I really really found it interesting. Really it is one guy's opinion and observation but Lordy does he pull it off... I dunno I can't even explain it...

But, as I was saying, life... Philosophising about it (is that even a word?) maybe it is what we are here for. To ponder... not that I'm saying the entity that could well be God sent us here on a wild goose chase... Maybe we're just here to while away the time... maybe there's been other Universes like ours that have been destroyed (by pollution or "big bang" or anything like that) just like ou Universe is now. It's not a hypothesis but I'm just generally spinning things off the top of my head.

Although, if you wish to look deeply into this, you may be here a bloody long time, thinking life is just a simple blip is not the way to go... Life is the longest thing any of us are ever going to know... I mean we know about eternity but we experience life. Maybe that's all it should be about...

On that note, let's go party! :P Anyways, that was a pretty random note, and I've said it so much now but don't take life for granted 'cos there's not a lot else we can all do, really!

Take care folks,

Mook
