Sometimes we see things that get our attention, we stop, we look, we enjoy the beauty, then we carry on. These are not the steps that a philosopher takes, as someone said before. We are not suppose to carry on after minimal reflection. When we see something peculiar, or feel something, it calls us to think and ponder about it, we should not ignore what our subconscious is trying to tell us, we should not just think its funny or beautiful and carry on. These things can never be explained, and so we shall think about them forever, this seems to be our purpose in life, “to sit and think” to forever contemplate the infinity that can be fond ANYWHERE and in ANYTHING as long as we dont fool ourselves to think that the thing has an explanation. This reminds me of the “dumb and dumber” scene where Lloyd thinks its peculiar that him and some other guy got the same drink, he stops, he thinks its funny, and dismisses it as a coincidence (his explanation, his conclusion) if you asked him to explain the peculiarity of them having thesame drinks he would give you the conclusion that coincidences happen sometimes, when if he thought about it a little more, like we have, he would have realized that a better explanation for them to have the same drinks is because all the cups from the store are the same (our explanation, ourconclusion), if someone asked us to explain the peculiarity of them twp having the same drinks we would give the conclusion that all of the store’s cups are the same, but if we thought about it a little more, we would indeed be less ignorant.
