Learning

Everyone is on a quest to find the meaning of life. It could be either personal, or something that is beneficial for the entire human race.

Another quest of the human race is to figure out how the universe works. Scientists are on a never-ending quest to figure out a singular theory or equation to find out the inner workings of the universe.

A common thread to this is learning.


All of us learn things, whether its to talk, to walk, a new language, a new skill, a new hobby.

This learning, ideally, should never end.

After school, you go to college and learn more. Then you start working, and you learn more on the field.

You also end up learning more about yourself as time goes by.

Learning how to adapt to change is extremely necessary, and so is learning how to get back up when life pushes you down.

I’m of the impression that you don’t find happiness and peace, you learn how to become happy and peaceful.


History teaches us the mistakes of the past so that it could be avoided in the future. Science and Math teaches us the working of the world so that we understand its limits and its strengths, like drivers learn the limits of an F1 car. Geography teaches us how the landscape of our Earth evolved, and what we can expect in the future. Languages teach us to communicate. Psychology teaches us about the human psyche. Economics teaches us about our financial system. Philosophy teaches us to find reasons.

Learning how we work, and how the universe works, might actually be the meaning of life. Once you learn how the world and you work, happiness and peace comes easily.

Why is the sky orange-pink here?
