20 Unanswered Questions For The World

We, as humans, ponder about the life around us whether it be the simplest questions. Why is the sky blue? What is the meaning of life? Sure, there may be answers out there but, in a sense, doesn't everything in life contradict itself to the point of confusing all of us?

Life isn't about finding the answers, it's about examining our atmosphere. Searching for the answer will cause unnecessary stress. Being open-minded and curious will leave life like a detailed, eye-catching, cliff-hanging novel that an individual would never desire to put down. Don't answer the questions below, put some thought into their overall meaning.

1. If opposites attract, then why is there still war?

2. How is there so much hate in this world when love exists?

3. Why do we keep it up if we ignore flames to ourselves?

4. Where is the light to guide us through the dark?

5. Why do we call thoughts deadly if they are what cures the world’s ills?

6. Do we really value life so much if we make death come to others?

7. How is there suffering if there's enjoyment?

8. Why is there school when we don't learn real world skills?

9. Why is there labeling if we each have tags attached to us?

10. What is the worth of a label if it's only a perception?

11. Why do we kill ourselves when there's ways to live?

12. Why is there leadership if there is corruption?

13. What is the value of money if it creates selfishness?

14. Why do we kill to live if it bites back in the end?

15. Why do we build if it kills our home, thus ourselves?

16. Why do we demean everything not human if it's what brought us life?

17. Why do we pray for freedom if society discontinued it?

18. Why pray for freedom when you follow the steps to life?

19. How can we breathe positive if there's so much negative pressure?

20. What is a world without Earth?

With these thoughts, there's a pattern of contradiction in most of them. Look at the immense visual, not the miniscule details that derail you from the overall interpretation. Life itself is a black and white, good and evil, angel and devil, experience. Once there is danger, there is hope; when there's truth, there's lies.

It's like an oscillating wavelength, once it hits a high, there's a low and at one point will reach a middle between the two always. Go through life knowing that your world could mold into a piece of gray dust at any point; experience that dust at your high to prepare for your fault, your decline because it will come to snap at you.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.
