If a ball floats in the air in front of you and a young toddler, who will be more surprised?
I will be i guess.
If a man starts to fly just like that, who will be more surprised?
I will be dropping my jaws and looking for the cause of him flying.. strings, wires and wadnots.
In actuality, we treat nature as a habit. We learned nature and everything becomes "natural" to us. In fact, we do not know what is nature, we perceived what usually happens (a habit) as nature. So can the impossible happen?
The toddler and the adult. The toddler tends to be the greater philosopher. He does not assume things to be natural, reasonable and ought to happen by nature. I guess he is more open minded than those who have believe themselves to be more learned by obtaining degrees and papers. We empower ourselves with knowledge yet becomes woefully ignorant of the possibilities that we may have closed doors on.

Cause and effect. When a man starts flying, we start to look for the cause of it because we tend to make a causal link between things that happen. Since this happens, something must have caused it. How about this happens cause this happens?

I am still grasping whatever that just transpired from the book Sophie's World.. yes i am still reading it cause i realised that i have kept it in my closet and it's collecting dust! I thought i read it all but when i casually flipped to a page on random, i am so woefully mistaken.. There are so many theories in that book and it's heavy in content.

And my long awaited book Unbearable Lightness of Being is coming tmr.. from my dance partner! He better bring it if not i will step on his toe.. no, toes and feet!

Till then..

P.S. i am in a good mood to slack today cause i have just had a test of this drug that drug acting on this receptor and that receptor.. my brain just wants to slack!
