Ecce Homo: The Extraordinary Nobody
Socrates said that "the unexamined life is not worth living." We are all certain the Earth is a sphere, yet we forget it was the compass that defined the direction. We insist the Sun is the center, yet we overlook the fact that we are standing on the Earth. We trust science is built on verifiability, yet we never question by whose yardstick that verifiability is measured. We are always hungry for the answer to "what it is," yet rarely ask "why it must be so." We are quick to repeat "who said what," but slow to wonder "why they said it that way." This is merely the boring record of an ordinary man passing through. Yet the path itself is unique. After half a lifetime of trudging, he realized: There is no answer to any question; and no certainty is certain. And now, he walks on, toward the pathless path. (These articles are just records of places I’ve passed by. Don’t take them too seriously, my friend — they may be full of mistakes. Trust yourself. If you want to find my recent location, please check the pinned post or updates on my homepage.)
