The Dark Dark Night

Is there such a thing as everlasting? Will there be eternity in life? If there is ever such a thing as forever, then there won't be such a word call expiry. Ever thing and ever course has it end point. There is always a period when it is durable, after which it will become obsolete.

Have you ever tried eating expired food? It taste horrible and sometimes it gives you a stomachache. It can also appear disgusting and displeasing in sight. Have you seen worms growing in your fruits? Or mold growing out of your bread? What is your first reaction? To keep it and hope that it will return to its original state? Or do you throw it away immediately? Logic tell us that we can't eat the food anymore and it should be discarded.

Do you think friendship can last? I really don't know. How many of your primary school friends is currently still your best friend? Or even to have contact with. For me, I still have contact with my primary school friends and they are still my good friends even until today. But wherever we go, we will meet new friends. Whatever we do, our emotions will bound to react in a certain way. So it is relatively impossible to ask human not to feel. In physics, we learn that there is always a counter force in relation to a force. In life it is the same. When there is forging, there will be breaking. When a friendship is forge, there is a point in time where it will break. "Nothing is forever, neither friends nor foes". This is one of my favourite verse from the movie <15>.

In relationships, it is the same. It is never easy to have a smooth sailing relationship. How many breakups do we encounter before we can find someone that is truly the Mr or Mrs right? We do feel pain, dishearten or even disappointed. But it is only part of the process of life. Even when two person get married, there is also conflicts and divorce. Researchers also found out that divorce rates are on the rise year after year. It is not easy to conclude in relations being forever and everlasting.

I really don't know whether everlasting is a myth or it is actually possible to happen. To those reading this post, please share your opinion with me.
