did you know?

that confucius died thinking that he lived a worthless life? well that 's according to the calendar hanging by my table.. im not sure if its reliable... SO dont quote me on that

well if its true.. then its a great irony that the man who is probably the greatest Chinese thinker or even the greatest thinker actually thought that he was not a good thinker...

i hope not.. because in my opinion he should have felt very important and lived a great life.. because i expect that life should be fair.. and since he is still making raves upto our time. he should have at least some impact while he was alive.. (i think he did sa government ata siya nagwwork)

how can the greatest painter live in misery while they were alive and be worth millions of dollars once they have died? i dunno like picasso or someone. hhe from my very minimal knowledge of art im pretty sure a lot of painters were poor when they were alive..

life is weird.. why do we keep on trying to understand it? maybe we are not supposed to understand it.. maybe we are supposed to be confident enough that life is and would always be unpredictable and confusinhg.

*just checked wiki and i dont think picasso was poor :D i guess some other painter then.. hhe

Carpe Diem - - - - tomorrow?

i've been downloading movies frm the web.. and had this urge to watch dead poets society again.. got around in watching it today. and i guess i felt the same way about the movie as i did when i first saw it for one of my college classes.. (i cant remember which)..

was supposed to write "detached" but i cant explain it. so i would just say that i felt sad.. the point of the story is to Seize the Day. and i felt that after a few years here i am watching the movie all over again and still not getting it..

as of now.. im still more like the scared guy who doesn't know how to stand up for what he thinks is right.. i take into consideration what other people thinks, what other people wants and what other people would feel.. when will i be the able to Seize the day???

*spoiler* refresher of the ENDING

boy 1(neil) - after being prohibited to continue acting and bbing unable to stand up for himself against his parents..he killed himself

boy 2(todd)- after being forced to signed a fake confession letter due to pressures from his parents.. he stood up for his prof(keating) in the end (the other boys followed his lead)

boy 3(charlie)- the only one that was not forced to sign a confession.. therefore was expelled fro the school

boy 4(cameron) - was still not standing for himself until the end
