Absolute Standard, Literature
Friday, February 13, 2009
yesterday i went for a job interview at PastaMania.
well. duno how its gonna turn out. but im not hoping for anything i guess.
i seriously am loving Literature. find it interesting... hehe.
was surfing Asiasoft Forums that day. and i came across this interesting post, originally posted by someone called "WoShiiRen".
The sapien race, shackled within fake laws, which emerge as mere norms.
Follow blindly like a bat, yet as furious as a bull. At end, it shall only receive the inertia of it's own rampaging words.
To strengthen their forces, built is a fotress, a Citadel. All of the same belief.
How can a blind bull, lead a blind bull?
For pictures speaks a thousand words, for the 999 words, it is nothing but a shade, a shadow that will overlap the one word that holds the crucial truth.
Now two are involved, engaged in a battle. Infernos and Juggernauts seem plausible, but in the midst of it, only the wise will see truly what they are.i found this interesting. and i tried to decipher it.
doubled checked with raerae, and realised my understanding of it didn't differ much from what she said. but definitely, what she said made more sense. (:
here's wad raerae told me. (:
people are bound by rules which they create themselves, and other people just follow blindly, just coz everyone else says the rules are such. Each side holds their own beliefs and refuse to see things from another perspective. Amidst the clashing of flames and iron-clad ideologies, only a few people will be wise enough to break free from such mindsetswhereas how i deciphered it was...
humans are bound by lies, which are like an everyday thing going on. they do not know their goals, but are die hard pursuing it, only to get backfired by their own doings. they build a defense against one who shares the same belief as them, but how can one who doesn't know the way, lead another?haha. comparing rae's one and mine... mine's probably nothing to be seen. >.<"
anyways. i've also came to realize about something regarding an absolute standard.
maybe i might not know it myself, but i seemed to have always followed an absolute standard.
however, recently, i began to fully understand that there is
NO SUCH THING AS AN ABSOLUTE STANDARD.
that day, i was playing DotA with Ben and the rest. in the opposing team, there was this Anti-Mage who bought a Battle Fury, and used a different build that i have never seen before, and a build that i never ever thought an Anti-Mage would use.
i felt that my build for Anti-Mage was good, and to me, that was the absolute standard. each time i play Anti-Mage, i would definitely follow my build. however, after that game, my mindset completely changed.
yes, no doubt i do know that there are probably a thousand and one ways a person could play a hero. but what i fully realized was that, i was wrong in always going for the same build. i realise that, varying with situation, my build should change too.
this does not only apply in DotA, but probably in reality too. many things have to change, even though it might not be in our favour. the only thing we can do, is probably adapt as fast as possible, and try to make our disadvantage into our advantage.
this made me remember what i had seen before in Initial D.
if i remember correctly.. this was what Bunta had said.
"To Takumi, a car like an AE86 on Mount Akina is his absolute standard.
First of all, if he's in a true battle, he must get rid of the idea of one absolute standard. For example, having one line gives the impression that there should be one ideal line you can draw on any course.
However,
realistically, there are countless lines to take. A good way to imagine a dogfight is one where you crush each other's lines.
You must break from the opponent's line and not give up your own.
The ways to overtake are limitless. Whatever line you choose could be the genuine one."
finally understood what this paragraph had meant, as last time, i thought it was redundant. however, now i know it was to explain the idea of an absolute standard, just that racing lines were used as the subject.
anyways. im feeling dam down now.
why do they always have to quarrel? cant there be peace?.. haix...
im feeling so down.
the anger, frustration, and depression i am feeling... is just like a rotary engine, which continues to rev even at the red zone...
