Forces of nature

Posted by vincentmamo in Oct 28, 2009, under Uncategorized

I don’t want to make this post too dorky, but in physics there are different types of fundamental forces. You’re probably familiar with gravity and electricity, and there are others. All of which are defined by their interactions with matter (which particles, how far, etc etc). Anyway, it suffices to say that I realized that these forces are present in human relationships too. Sometimes when someone is really close, the attraction is incredible, but the slightest bit of distance will result in none at all. On the other hand, there are those relationships which always have a pull on you, no matter the distance. Of course these forces can be repulsive or neutral. I don’t want to necessarily say that these forces cause us to do things one way or another, just that they definitely have influence over our lives. The question then comes in when our internal moral set is in conflict with these forces. How do you rectify choices you make with overwhelming forces pulling you in all directions? At the end of the day, you alone are accountable for your life and the decisions you make. But if the universe is constantly wriggling and turning to find equilibrium with all of these forces, would it behoove you to make decisions that are in compliance with these laws? Or do you constantly swim upstream in hopes of maintaining some semblance of a predefined set of morals? Either choice I’ve taken always seems to be wrong, retrospectively. Despite my wild independent streak, I long for someone to tell me how to do things so that my life works out best. That’s all for today kids.
