In a place of voidness, I need colours. Blue, Red, Green. May the colours tell of a story that will not let me regret.

Colouring Lives...

How Familiar...


It makes me sick to see these(some insect's PUPA) at the buffet choices.

It seems so appropriate to put oranges and apples in the same group, seeing how often people eat them. But do you know, apple is in fact a BERRY? There's not really a link between these 2 fruits but you see them being placed together so often it leads to a misunderstanding.

You can try and link the 2 fruits together by saying, 'the seeds are at the center' or even 'they all grow from trees'. If that is considered, wouldn't many fruits in the world be the same as well? Sometimes differences are so apparent, no matter how many links or attempts of commodifying both objects are done, it would not change the facts.

Orange produce the 'fruit' part in sacs whereas the apple just expands its flesh. The orange can be said to have 'expanded' as well just because it grew in size, however, the truth is that more sacs are created and the difference lies beneath the skin. To talk only skin deep, you can also say that both fruit have defense mechanism to protect it from injury. But in detail, what happens in the apple is actually oxidation of the 'wounded' area to turn the flesh brown whereas in the orange, oil glands in the skin hardens to form a layer that protects the exposed flesh.

Only when one trys to communicate things in the superficial manner, can then one be a 'friend' to the whole world. Common topics such as the weather or fashion can only bring people together for a short moment, a moment so short that one doubts the amount of interaction between them. Another failure in social interactions between humans is the path many take to participate in conversations. By agreeing to everything a party says not only achieve a platform of 'greater understanding' but also sort of brings both parties 'closer' by having 'similar thoughts'. The risk of disagreeing at any moment brings about much more trouble in either defending one's opinion or trying to accept other's mindsets. More often that not, the topics that induce such different reactions are not really even worth it. Hence what should one do in the event of a friendly gesture? Give it a shake and just smile while the sun sets for the day to end.

Sometimes, Nature just cannot be forced to change, not even a human's nature.
