Code

 My freshman year of college has been full of epiphanies and this idea about us each having a code really made sense. It felt so natural to think about the idea that we must all accept our own personal code, with it's own flaws and natural patterns. A code cannot be replicated, and each one is entirely different from the next, with no margin of difference greater in one than the other.
By realizing that every code is in fact different it also becomes easier to adopt several other ideas. Ideas like all in life is equal, there is no concept of good and bad, and there are infinite ways to write each code of living by. I have said previouly that I believe life is based on survival. Or that in other words life is all about perpetuating life. Even as I am sitting here writing this it plays a powerful role. What are my motives? Essentially they are survival , and sharing an idea or code I have discovered and then in turn making my own survival easier by giving other human beings a copy of this code. But then there is an idea that this is "selfish" or "superficial" that just floats in the air. Now maybe this is just my own mind trying to break from my code and refute my robotness or maybe I am sensing the reaction of future readers. Either way I think it's important that as writers and learners we stop trying to deny the natural desires of our brain. Otherwise I really believe we give up our greatest weapon.
Now by no means am I saying we should never consider the other. I am saying that everything should be considered when we ask questions. That we should leave behind concepts that once held us back about good or bad ideas unless the ideas actually limit who gets to share them and to what extent. I'm simply saying that we should consider everything beautiful. Or that we should learn to see the beauty in everything. Simply because something is there and exists we should appreciate it's ability to persist. I really think things would be easier for us us if we learned to truly be grateful of the remarkable act of living.
