The best thing about studying is that you (hopefully) learn something new every day. One of the courses I´m taking this semester is organizational psychology – Which according to my professor equalizes the freshmen year at the bachelor degree of psychology. True or false it´s quite interesting. Today we talked about perception and how human beings are constantly searching for an explanation. An answer. A reason for everything that happens in our lives. And it really makes me wonder why. Why do we have to understand everything that happens? Why can´t we learn to accept rather than looking for underlying causes? We spend plenty of time trying to figure out why it in most cases went wrong rather than accept the fact and move on. Instead of spending our energy on our future, we waste time and effort on the past which we cannot even undo.
I think that´s one of the main reasons why most of us are living in doubt and unhappiness; Always looking for an answer why things turn out the way they do or looking for an answer to solve what we see as problems in our lives, which really aren´t problems. Just everyday challenges. Try to imagine a life without challenges. Would you live that kind of a life?
Speaking of answers. There aren´t always an answer to every question. Sometimes there´s not even a question.
