I wish I was the author of this title, but unfortunately I'm quoting Thomas Pynchon there. The question "Why should things be easy to understand?" might appear to be useless, and maybe it is indeed a useless question, but still it is legitimate question. Why should things be easy to understand? Is there a reason? If we would understand everything, wouldn't many people commit suicide out of boredom? I would, or at least I might consider.
I don't think one should see the 'things' as an absolute number of things, and we unravel them one by one, and that we have unraveled them all, some day. The more we know, the more nuances we can maken, the more new problems arise, which we have to solve, but if we solve these, more problems and nuances are discovered, so it is never ending. (Is this paragraph kitsch?)
I thought I might have to give an example to clarify the last paragraph, but I won't. Nevermind about that paragraph anyway. Nevermind about this whole blogpost anyway. (And I'm not even drunk!)
My life
