 |   Second blog -- answers to an ocean of prompts |
 "Failure is unimportant. It takes courage to make a fool of yourself." CHARLIE CHAPLIN  Sometimes it takes darkness and the sweet confinement of your aloneness to learn anything or anyone that does not bring you alive is too small for you. David Whyte        This is my supplementary blog in which I will post entries written for prompts. |
| Prompt: What is your favorite thing about social media? --- My favorite thing is that I get news from friends and family since they post in that media. It used to take too much time and effort to stay in touch with everyone. Now I know what my friends are doing even if they live in faraway parts of the world. It used to take so much time, effort, and money to stay in touch with even 1/100th of those people through the phone and snail mail. Not anymore! Social media may have its drawbacks, but for me, its positives make up for that. Second to that, social media is another portal for us for self-expression.  Prompt: Einstein said, “Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.” Can you think of a few things about people that show stupidity? What about the universe’s stupidity? --- Oh, sure! To begin with, we are all stupid with something, partly due to our lack of information on that thing. Second, in a foreign environment, we all act like a stupid person, again due to the lack of information, behavioral mistakes, or adaptation. Then, we always underestimate the stupidities and their damage. And, through our stupid behavior, we incur losses to ourselves or to other people. As to the universe, I don’t know enough about it, but what gets me is the destruction clause it has built into its essence. Such as, everything eventually is destroyed or self-destructs. Also, why do we have to eat, hurt, or damage other beings just to stay alive? Chances are my questions, too, point to my very own infinite stupidity. |
