Philosophical Side

This will be a dynamic entry, full of thoughts and questions that come to me. Most I have not answered but who knows what can happen as you spread ideas. I will not get into religion.

The biggest question I have is why do you fall in love with someone you meet. Over your lifetime, you will meet hundreds if not thousands of people - depending on how gregarious one is. Yet, some stay as passing ships, fewer become acquaintances, even less friends and the very few (maybe only one or two), close friends. You might not share the same ideas or goals but the attraction is there. What is it that sets that "got to be together" thing off?
I have spoken to friends, psychologists, doctors, younger and older people but no one has yet given me a reasonable answer.

Second view is that you can have a good friend, but at the same time have to keep away from that friend in order to protect them. Friendship seems to be a give and take thing. Sometimes one has to do things completely contrary to a normal friendship to keep it. Someone will know what I mean!

Humans are capable of absolutely horrendous atrocities on people they know and yet be the willing to sacrifice their life for a stranger.

Love is the most powerful thing in the world. It can make you protect someone with your life but later on, take that life because you care. Think about protecting someone who is in danger of losing their life and later the same person who is suffering from a devastating illness.

One can be surrounded by people, but still lonely!

You can be in love with more than one person at the same time.

Something I hear a lot - I have invested too much time in this to leave/change. Yet, they will waste even more time in it! Hmmm....

A man can never have enough tools - those that know me will say otherwise! :-)

A good friend is worth more than anything!

Do the things you want to while you can. Opportunities are lost that never present themselves again. Of course, be careful and know the consequences of your actions.
