Rules rule (pun intended).
There are no absolutes. None whatsoever. Every single rule that has ever been made is meant to be broken. Every single protocol defined by society is defined to control something, to serve a purpose, to achieve an objective. It is meant to be broken when the objectives change. I don’t know everything. Everything is interconnected and I know that as well. The variables acting on any one event, behavior, phenomenon, belief or pattern are infinitesimal. Hence I don’t know the complete truth about any one thing until I know the truth about everything…..which might never happen. A partial knowledge of anything is too susceptible to misinterpretation. Much more than I sometimes like to admit. So I don’t know anything.
The way I see it everything in life is a small microcosm (for lack of a better word)…be it relationships, circumstances, anything...the boundaries of which depend on how many relationships you perceive between the variables. If I need rules to follow I think I ought to make them using this perception….always ready to admit that something I perceive could be wrong…which will change the rules. Where does that leave me. No rules. No absolutes.
The only thing that scares the shit out of me is that I have been accustomed to/brought up to/gotten used to following some of these very rules that I so vehemently deny the sanctity of….and I shall follow them again and again even if at some point I realize I am doing it more out of compulsion than rationale.
