Being conscious makes our existence so heavy, and it needs nothing less than a great understanding to make it light again. We manifest the most advanced form of unconscious development within a nature which we know so little about it, more or less living a state of ignorance. This is what makes consious heavy and what makes knowledge exciting. This is what makes a mind so curious. Nader Ibrahim

The most perplexing yet marvellous phenomena to me so far, is that connecting the dots and seeing patterns of one's life only happens backward and time only happens forward. You can't catch a pattern from the future and you can't catch time from the past. Only by the memories from the past a one tackles the complexity of the present and uncertainty of the future and while everything changes, the mechanism is always the same, and this itself is a pattern.
