The occasional dosage of flu and cough. Yea, i'm sick and still have to worry about my experiments.. In the end, i sneezed onto the glass of the fume cupboard.. Paiseh!
The unbearable lightness of being by Milan Kundera. The next book i want to read which talks about the lightness of our being. Perhaps we place too much importance on our existence that we focus on ourselves constantly. Unbearable to us i think, since we regard ourselves to be above nature..
There's a story:
A wave was happily bobbing in the sea until it saw the wave in front of it crashing onto the shores.
It said to the wave behind it "We are going to crash into nothing when we reach the shore! We'll just become nothing."
The reply was "We will just become part of the ocean, not nothing.. part of the ocean"
We are part of nature as well.
Till then..
