So here it goes...
I think I am asking an average of one-hundred questions a day. Thinking that I am not a philosopher makes me wonder how many questions a philosopher asks in his lifetime. I have written an article during my high school days and as I’m reading it today, it makes me wonder why I even bothered myself asking these questions. Pardon me, reader, for the immaturity of the text you are about to read.
Ready? Go!
Where do water vapors in clouds go when sunlight strike on them? Are there other humans in other galaxies? Are there other galaxies? Can you actually kiss your elbow? Do rainbows have ends? Which are faster, your eyes or your hands? If “demons” and bad spirits be locked in the bottom of the earth, considering its dimensions, is there enough space for the future spirits of bad people? Do fishes sleep? Does Einstein brush his hair? Why is the nine months we stayed in our mother’s womb not included in our age? Can you really step into your I.Q. if you have a low one? Which is sharper, our teeth or our asshole? Which is farther, the moon or Europe? Can you sneeze with your eyes open? Can you still remember what your dream is last night? If train A travels 80kph from Davao to Manila and train B travels 50kph from Manila to Davao, which train is farther to Manila when they meet? Can a man living in Germany be buried in North Korea? What is the probable number of male chicks inside their eggs can a roaster lay if there were nine eggs that he laid? Which existed first, the egg or the chicken? Why do people automatically crumple papers when throwing it in garbage cans? Why does “Greenwich” had a letter “w” when it is not pronounced? Why do girls have to ask if their faces are white when putting on face powder if they intentionally put face powder to actually whiten their faces? In playing cards’ deck, why is the King of Hearts the only king without moustache? Why do you have to scratch on something that is itchy? Why does Monalisa lacks eyebrows? Do hydrophobias take a bath? Why do we practically scream when we are scared or surprised? Why is it that hens don’t make “tilaok” when roasters do? What is the english term for the word “pasma”? is there anybody at your back right now? Have you checked if somebody texted you for the past 5 minutes? Why do w say “hello” when answering the phone? Why can’t we step on our own shadows? Do you think that somebody is being asked by these questions at this very same moment as you do?
Eeeeenggk! Time’s up!
When my adviser read this article she replied, “Have you found all the answers to these?”. And that’s the thing about wondering, I personally indulge myself knowing that there are some things I don’t know. My ignorance amuses me.
