The quick answer to the question why for everything.

The question why is the most important and basic question of all. In this section I will blog a quick blog on the answer.
The answer to the question why everything happens can be seen in two ways. One is that because it can.
If something can happen it is going to happen. Example if a ball can go down a hill and there is nothing preventing it then it is going to go down the hill.
The second answer on why everything happens the way it does is because it is the easiest thing for it to be.
Anything that happens always takes the easiest route that it can take.
The main gravitational pulls that pull things from non happening to happening is can and easiest route.
Them being the main gravitational pulls, there are many gravitational pulls that are consisted within them like the sun being the main gravitational pull in our system but also the earth having a pull on the moon and all that dwell in it.
This is the short version without the details.
The longer version will be posted in the future.

A state of mind is a legal place in conciseness with its own legal system.(A logical argument with examples.)

One may find it amazing or even might not believe when one hears this but there is a process of legitimacy for everything. Even a state of mind and thought. I am arguing logically that it is true and real.
A state of mind has its own legality and believe it or not its own justice system. The legalities are moderately fair as the consciousness of human beings is only moderately advanced. It may advance even more if the collective consciousness of human beings advances more. Again believe it or not, we, as a thinking consciousnesses have an opposite consciousness but is kept with a lid on by the justice system because we are the originals and its creators. It wont advance unless morally right. The opposite keeps us and prevents us from achieving a high state of ecstasy or happiness or even if we do, it has to have its share later on. As everything else there is a legalistic way of controlling and even maybe getting rid of it.
Since what we are talking about is a process of thought, it is very hard or even maybe impossible to observe physically but one can pick up the sign that it gives or shows.
To give an example of legalities in the process of thought, try to see someone who is in quarrel or is not at peace with him/her self. It would be evident that that person is caught in the legal system of thought and is very hard to get out of it unless in the legal way. Now as I have mentioned earlier it has its own way of functioning. Again to our amusement a state of mind has to have the legalities in order to be so. Narrowing it down and give a logical argument by examples, certain states of mind such as confidence, bravery and happiness also other thought of certain kind have their own legalities in order to exist. For example, try feeling confident more that you already are without any reason, or even be brave or happy more than you already are. The logical examples above and also many more are reasons for one to know that there is a legal system in the process of thought with its own judiciary system and legality of functioning.

Everything is, because it is the only correct and logical thing to be.

Starting from the universe and its beginning, all the things that reside in the universe, the way everything functions, the way everything is, when everything is, where everything is, how everything reacts, everything that exists and the way it exists and acts, is because it is the only correct and logical thing for it to be.
Lets take for example, the law of gravity. Smaller objects get attracted to the larger ones because of the dent that the larger ones create on the fabric of space time than the smaller ones and the smaller objects can't do otherwise than to go down the dent that the bigger objects created.
When we look at the example above, we can see that it is the only logical option that it had. Thus it was the only logical and correct thing for it to be like so.
It is only logical for a wall that is stronger than your push to push you back when you push it, it is only logical for it to tumble down if it is not strong enough. It is only logical for water to turn into ice when it is cold enough, and to turn into vapor when it is hot enough.
So believe it or not, the same goes to all things from beginning up till now and the future and things we don't understand yet. The answer to all of them is that it is the only logical thing to be.

Does God exist?(Logically speaking)

The question whether God exists or not is a very debatable one.There are a lot who may argue that God exists without any doubt. There are also many who may argue that there is no such thing as God or anything supernatural for that mater.
The logical question here is which idea is right and which idea is wrong or even if it matters at all.
Using logic here means, the use of evidence, reasoning and also it is logical to always leave a space of doubt and also according to the magnitude of the unknown factor.
Trying to apply logic in this question "Does that exist?" we first have to look at the evidences of both sides. There are evidences supporting each side of the argument on whether God exists or not.
Lets look at them

Logical evidences that support the argument that God exists :-

There are many logical evidences that support the argument that God exists. Here are some logical ones
1) Concept of creation that are mind boggling and even arguably impossible for humans ans science to understand
i) Life:-   Science being the highest and strongest rival to the argument that god exists has attempted to explain where and how life began to the limit of its understanding. But what science hasn't even got a glimpse on is what life is and what power makes life evolve exactly the way it should and how it knows how to evolve. Because evidentialy life knows how to evolve in order to increase its chances of its survival.
ii) Reality:- Science being the highest and strongest rival for the argument that God exists, it has tried and to a certain extent explained our universe and physical reality. But what science hasn't understood is basically the basic question"What is reality?" and how it came about. The most logical scientific explanation for the beginning of existence may be the theory "spontaneous creation". But it nor science have answered or even looked at the concept that vacuum is not a total nothingness if something has the potential to exist in it or if something can exist in it. Nothingness can not even be thought of because there is nothing to think of. If something can exist in nothing it is not nothing but a legitimate place for things to exist in. It is like a page of reality.
2) Science being the highest and strongest rival for the argument that exists does not deal with things that can not be manipulated with :- If it can not deal with things that can not be seen, touched or sensed by senses that we have or can generate, science doesn't deal with it.
3) Witnesses of miracles:- There are too many both today and in the old days that claim to have witnessed a miracle. There are actually too many and most of them tell their story genuinely.
4) Science being the highest and strongest rival for the argument that God exists its theory usually changes:- Theories of science usually change when there is a wider and bigger way of looking at things comes along. So those theories and scientific ideas that back the argument that God may not exist may change tomorrow if a wider scope theory comes along.

Logical evidences that support the argument that God doesn't exist

There are many logical points that one can raise in order to argue that there may not be such a thing as God. Here are some logical ones.
1) Scientific evidences:- Nowadays scientific theories have reviled answers to many mysteries that once, whose only explanation was God. Science has tried and has mostly been successful explaining the nature of things and how they came about, Some of the explanations as we may all know are against the idea of God.
Here are some of them
i) Theory of evolution:- In most religions, it is believed that God created everything and also life and humans as they are. But the theory of evolution, which is the most accepted theory in the scientific community, explains that life may have started a very long time ago when a chemical reaction took place when the atmosphere of the earth at that time which is very different from the one now, water and lightning came together as one and brewed life in the simplest form. Life then has been evolving to this stage through millions of years of evolution.
ii) The big bang theory and spontaneous creation:- Most religions believe that God created everything that exists. But science tries to tell a different story. The big bang theory is accepted by almost all of the scientific community and spontaneous creation is also widely accepted.
The big bang theory states that everything resulted from a big bang that occurred billions of years ago. This idea lacked something, it was, how the first agents that caused the big bang existed.
Spontaneous creation tries to explain that. Just as its name, Spontaneous creation explains that something can be created out of nothing or vacuum due to quantum fluctuation that occurs in a vacuum.

Not only these but there are many theories and evidences in science that are against the argument that God exists.

When we try to apply reasoning in this argument on whether God exists or not, one who is logical has to look at all sides without bias. One also has to put into consideration that there there maybe things that maybe above the reasoning and comprehending capacity of humans. Science is a very reasonable thing to believe in period. But in this case has many faults so one shouldn't blindly take its side in this argument for it would be foolish. One should also not ignore its evidences.

We are driven by forces we can not control.

It may sound somehow ridiculous that whatever one did, does, or will do, even though it may seem it is in the control of one, one has no control over it. Whatever it is we do there are different forces outside our own control that control them. Our thoughts and actions, all are in control of other forces that drive them.
Our thoughts and actions are controlled by basically, nature. Things that we are exposed to, our natural wants and desires, our natural logic and reasoning and our natural given strength to resist our wants and desires according to plan and reasoning. So, even though it may seem that we are in control of them, we really aren't but is nature that is.

People mostly believe in a higher power to save themselves rather than because it is true.

If believers of certain faiths try themselves and search deep inside themselves, it would be clear that most believe in order to be saved and obtain eternal blissful life and avoid eternal death. When people of certain faiths go on a field to preach a gospel that they believe in, they usually try to persuade others by giving them hope of eternal blissful life and a warning that if others don't believe in what they are saying, the unbelievers would be doomed to eternal death or something similar to that.
Avoiding eternal suffering or death and hope of eternal blissful life is of course an adequate reason for anyone to do anything whatever it may be but even that still is arguable. But if so, there should clearly be such a higher power telling us in a very clear way to force ourselves to believe or else face the consequences and that certain power should clearly have the power to do so.
But if not, and if one wants to reason things in all fairness, it is unquestionable that it is not for the selfish reason of attaining something or avoiding something that one should believe in something but rather for the simple fact that that thing is the truth. Otherwise it would be lying to oneself.
Believing in its nature comes naturally and is something that one shouldn't try to do. If something is clearly true, one doesn't try to believe in fact it would be impossible for one to not believe in that clear truth.
Claiming that the thing that one believes in is a perfect, fair and just entity and is all knowing and all doing, and being human and believing in fairness, it is not fair and not of a good moral to really believe in something for the reason of saving oneself but rather because the thing to believe in is true.

What is the natural purpose of life?(The natural purpose of one's life is to just live.)

The question  what is the purpose in life is one of the most sought after question with diversified answers. There are of course many theories to the answer of this question meaning there are a lot of answers that are proposed by many to it.
If one looks at things just the way they are, it would be very clear that we humans tend to complicate simple and obvious things.
The purpose of one's eyes is to see, the purpose of one's hand is to manipulate things,, the purpose of one's respiratory system is to oxidize one's blood cells, the purpose of one's tongue is to taste. It is as clear as that. The natural purpose of one's life is to just live.

What is the use of being formal?

Being formal is acting in accordance with a known and accepted way by the majority especially by those who have a say. 
But what is the use of acting formal? Does it have a backside to it? Is it a must to be formal all the time? When is the right time to be formal?
Being formal actually helps one in many ways. It can even be a life savior in certain situations. Being formal reduces the risk of being out of place, confusion that might arise of not knowing what to do in certain situations when among people and gives one a certain direction in what to do in certain situations especially when among people. No matter what one may think, being formal is the way to go if one doesn't want to risk embarrassment and humiliation of making a mistake because formalities usually are tested results that have gone through generations and have shown to be acceptable by the general population in that area.
Formalities being acceptable by the general population, it is hard to falter in situations where one is observed and judged by the general public if one follows the formalities. Even though in civilized areas it may not matter much, in areas where the outlook of the people is not free and civilized it can be a life savior if one strictly follows it. Even in civilized areas it can save one from embarrassment and bad outlook that may come from the population of that area. For example it might be ok for someone to kiss a neighbors little kid in some countries but it might be looked on as sexual harassment in others. 
There are though times when following formalities may cause harm to one that is following them. For example if one doesn't know when to be formal and when to be casual and is formal all the time, one may loose out in the excitements that life has to offer. It can also take over the personality of one and change it into its like and in cases where formalities are based on religion and culture it can engulf and silence the real personality of a person. If one always follows formalities and ignores one's true feelings, one may be dis-attached with oneself.

6 Unique and amaizing things in human nature and behavior.

There are many things that we humans possess that make us unique from other creatures. There are also many things about us that boggle our minds and make us ask what they are and why they are there. All in all, human beings possess many things that are hard to explain or are vast in nature to grasp conceptually. Here are a list of some
1) Recognition of the soul:- The soul is a controversial issue. There are many that argue that it doesn't exist at all. There are also many that argue that it is part of an essential nature of all beings especially humans. What makes it unique to us is, it is believed that our soul is the most valuable one and is the only one worth living after death. We humans among all creatures are also the only ones that recognize and ask and wonder about such entity. What makes the soul controversial is that it is not observable.
We humans feel that we have a soul. We feel and have this sense that we are a lot more than just physical entities.
If there is such a thing as the soul what is it? Where is it? Is it the human soul that is the only worthy one to exist after death? Do other creatures have soul? Why can't it be observed by the physical media? Is it immortal?
There are many questions that can potentially be asked of the soul if it exists. The fact that we are the only creatures on this planet that we know as of now that ask such questions makes us unique. The fact that it is unobservable by any physical media makes it an amazing entity if it exists.
2) There are certain sounds that are unbearable for us to hear but frequencies differ from person to person:- There are certain sound frequencies that are naturally unbearable for us to hear. Imagine a person scraping a blackboard with his/her nails really hard. Imagine the sound that comes with it. For many this is a very disgusting sound and is somehow unbearable to experience. Why is it unbearable? Why does the unbearable frequency differ from person to person.
3) The power of belief:- Some may argue that believing in something has no power whatsoever in the physical realm. Well scientific studies do prove them wrong. According to medical researches done on volunteers, patients were amazingly cured when given dummy tablets when they believed that it was real. The question is how did that happen? What is the connection between thought and reality? Does believing make things happen?
4) Hope:- Hope is arguably one of the greatest strength and weakness of human beings. Although may sometimes be blinding and a blurring agent for us to see real truth clearly, it is one of the greatest if not the greatest mechanisms that helps us overcome barriers, cross the uncrossable, rejoice in a time of sorrow, relax in a time of stress and full of life in the face of death. 
Hope may be a feel of reality that may or may not be real. SO is hope a feeling that occurs because things to look forward to are real or is it just a feeling that occurred in order to give us strength and encourage us.
5) Imagination (Reality outside of reality):- Though imagination may not be recognized as real, it does mimic reality to a certain extent and gets one almost to the state of realness. It is amazing and also frighting what our imagination may do to us. In rare cases there are people who see, smell and taste things that they imagine. Imagination again is something that is believed to be uniquely given to us amongst all other creatures. 
Is imagination just a thought? Could it be a level of existence?
6) Dream:- Dream like imagination comes out of thought process. Again just like imagination, it does take one almost and maybe quite to the state of realness as it can. What is dream? Is it another reality? Is it another existence? Is it just a thought process? Is it a lower level of existence? Is it a higher level of conciseness? What is it?

11 very effective ways on how to deal with stress.

It is a known fact that stress is an inescapable reality which is part of a human life. Stress as recently proven can be a major cause of many dangerous diseases and health complications. So stress has to be dealt with accordingly. There are many ways in which to deal stress and some of them are experimentally proven. So here are some really good tips which some of them are medically proven on how to deal with stress.
1) Get well acquainted with yourself and love yourself:- This step is actually the first stepping stone for dealing with a lot of problems. Stress may arise or worsen if one is not well acquainted with oneself and deal with the feelings and emotions that may arise to the extent that best fits one.
2) Always try to look at the positive side of things:- Being optimistic has great advantages in dealing with stress. If one makes a habit of looking at the positive side of things rather than the negative, it has been proven that it would reduce the amount of stress that one may experience in the short and long term as well.
3) Confront and solve challenges and problems accordingly and logically:- In order not to be engulfed in problems and them lead to inevitable stress, one has to always confront, deal and solve problems and challenges that life puts out accordingly, by the time limit that they need to be dealt with and logically. One should not disregard the word 'logically'. If problems and challenges are not dealt logically then it would be like trying to walk in the dark just by feeling the things around.
4) Let go of the things that you can not control:- One needs to learn that it is stupid not to let go of things that one can not control. Of course it is good to give a good try to all things but if it is a situation that one definitely can not control, then the answer that one is looking for is already there. That is to just let go. If not one would be engulfed with uncontrollable and unmanageable stress until one learns to let go.
5) Get enough sleep:- Even though one does not have problems in one's life, not getting enough sleep stresses the mind because the mind is not getting enough rest to regenerate itself. Stress can sometimes be a direct result of not getting enough sleep. So in order to have an enjoyable and stress free life one needs to get enough sleep.
6) Eat right and exercise regularly:- Eating right and exercising regularly are among the great tools in reducing stress both for long and short term results. If we look at the short term results, if one overeats or does not eat enough, the body itself would be in stress and it would be impossible not to feel stressed, lazy and agitated in those situations. When one exercises, there will be an increase of blood flow in the body then as we may have all experienced, there is a feeling of great ease and relaxation afterwards. To look at the long term results, both eating right and exercising regularly help in generating and maintaining a healthy body and mind thus a more relaxed, stress free state of being. 
7) Make and maintain good friends:- We as humans are social animals and just the reality of having someone to talk to reduces stress significantly. Having good friends certainly eases the stress that may be experienced by anyone in many ways. One can go out and have fun with friends which certainly is a lot more enjoyable than doing it alone. The other benefit that one may have of having friends to reduce stress is, one can go and talk to a good friend that one can trust about troubling issues and may find support for the problems and comfort by sharing it with someone else instead of keeping it to self and facing it alone.
8) Be an environment suitable for you:- If one wants to get rid of stress one has to get rid of the stress triggers. If the environment that one lives in is stress triggering for that particular person, that person has to change the environment in order to lesson the amount of stress.
9) Meditate and do yoga:- Meditation and yoga have been proven as one of the greatest and most effective agents in reducing stress and improving physical and mental health as a whole.
10) Have a distant relationship with your thoughts:- One of the major agents of stress if not the major is thought. We may thing that we are in control of our thoughts. But one may be in for a surprise if one tries to stop thinking. Being overwhelmed and drowned by our thoughts is one of the major if not the major agent of stress. 
So what one has to do is try to control one's thoughts. But that is not as easy as it sounds and infact is impossible. 
One of the most effective ways of having some kind of control over our thoughts is instead of trying to stop thinking, one could just disassociate and observe thoughts without judging them, trying to stop or control them or trying to add any thought over them and just observe them as they come and go. This would legitimately give a separate entity of one from thought. This is a very effective way of reducing stress significantly.
11) Make a habit of being in the now:- Being in the now whenever one doesn't have to think or make agendas helps a lot in relaxing one's mind and enjoying anything that life throws at one. Making a time for such a practice helps in the short term and especially in the long run.

How to have a logical mindset.

Being logical is and has been the fundamental building block of modern civilization, science and development. Being logical means being reasonable and mainly backed by evidence.
Although everybody thinks that they are logical, being real logical has its catch.
Here are some tips on how to develop a logical mindset.
1) Increase your knowledge:- Knowledge is power. By increasing one's knowledge one would be exposed to different ideas and thoughts and would give one ground in scattering one's views into different angles.
2) Question everything:- In order to have a totally logical mindset, one has to question everything even those things that one thinks that shouldn't be questioned.
3) Do not take sides in reasoning out:-  Taking sides for one's own benefit is common and reasonable. But when trying to figure things out in order to understand things one shouldn't take any sides for it is common for one to take side and believe in what one wants to believe in.

Why does music move us?(It moves us according to our own vibe.)

Music as we know is one of the most influential things in the world. It has been seen that music does not only effect humans but animals and plants as well. For us humans, music can stress, relax, move and influence us as a whole.
Why is music this powerful? What powers and spell does it posses in it? 
Music is actually an emitance of  a prearranged range of vibrations and usually accompanied by words.
Vibration is an essential element in nature. Some scientists even claim that all is made of vibrations to begin with and that vibration is the essential nature of everything in this reality.
Vibrations also are nowadays used to sooth and relax people in some places.
Music naturally being a vibration or set of vibrations, the vibration of music touches and moves one according to the vibe of one's own mind set and the vibe of the state of mind that one is in at the time one hears the music and the words that are smeared with it enforces the effect or reduces it according to the vibe of the state of mind that one is in.

There is no such thing as absolute chaos.(All things are governed by the law of nature.)

One of the most frightening ideas that humans may have is of chaos. But what is chaos? Should we really be afraid of it?
To make things short, we shouldn't be that afraid of chaos. The reason behind this notion is that absolute chaos doesn't exist. 
Absolute chaos means no rule or law or governance whatsoever so that all things happen uncontrollably and unreasonably. That is not possible in any reality because all things are governed by the law of nature. Reality itself originates from the law of nature. Thus we can say that there is no such a thing as absolute chaos.

In order to avoid chaos things should change slowly.(There is a limit by nature that limits the pace of change of everything.)

Change is a fundamental part of anything and everything except for maybe our own soul. Everything changes and is in a constant momentum of change.
We as humans and the environment and conditions we live in also change constantly. Change may occur for the good and maybe for the bad.
There is a limit set by nature that limits the pace of change of everything. But that varies according to the situation and particular subject experiencing change and the method used to bring about the change.
Fast change requires tremendous energy and less time, slow change requires less energy and more time.
Imagine drinking a very cold cup of water and immediately after drinking a very hot tea, it would for sure bring some pain in the body and probably let a tooth or two loose. Also try to imagine putting a fist on one's face at a very quick pace and then imagine the same thing at a very slow pace. At the quick pace one is for sure to experience bruises. 
Concerning change, it goes the same with everything almost all the time. The main area that this article wants to concentrate on is change in our attitude, action and environment. Bringing change in those areas for the good is a good thing but like in everything else, trying to bring a quick and drastic change may bring catastrophes along with it.

Why aren't machines alive? To be alive is to be a slave to self.

In the world we live in today, we are witnesses to incredible machines that do extraordinary things and things that are extremely hard and even impossible for us humans to do. When we see that, we may somehow be intimidated by the idea of what may happen if they become aware of themselves and masters of their own.
Machines becoming masters of their own is a terrifying thought as they can be a lot quicker, stronger and have a greater danger endurance that us. If they become aware, it would be arguable that they would also be smarter than us. That reality may put us humans or even natural life forms in danger.
What makes the machines enslaved to us? What prevents them from owning a life and becoming aware of self? Where is the dividing line?
It is very evident and logical that things of significant meaning to a beholder and beholders as a whole and also things like life don't happen improperly. They must have a proper legitimacy in order for them to exist. If one looks at nature and the way reality unfolds, there is a general properness to everything. If it be proper for machines to obtain life then they will.
What is it to be alive though? What is the dividing line? What do machines need to posses in order to be legitimate to be alive? As stated earlier there is a legitimacy to everything in nature.
Well in order to be legitimately alive, machines need to be slaves of their own. If they are complex they need to be slaves and masters of their own. It is the same with any life form. To be alive is to be a slave to self, or in advanced cases to be a slave and a master of self.

Just be!

It may seem like a joke but "just being" sometimes is harder than it sounds. Although many may look at the idea of just being as something inferior to the major list of things they have to do, many may be surprised that just being is one of the major triggers in fact arguably the top trigger of real happiness in life. 
Many spiritual leaders with real implications of they themselves being in a state of lasting happiness teach that just being and being in the now is the ultimate bliss that one can achieve. 
It may have come easy for them but is not at all easy to reach that state in many cases. Our mind for example is something that we evidently have little control on. One way of knowing that is by trying to stop thinking for two hours or even 20 mutinies straight. If one has tried it, one would see that it is not in one's control to stop thinking. 
It is also evident that when we are around others, it is very hard to just be. There are many things that come in our minds and that we have no control of. "Do I look ok?", "why is that guy looking at me?", am I in a right position?", "do I look cool?" etc. There also are feelings that we have no control of that come along with those thoughts. There are also formalities that we may have to follow when we are around others. Being drowned in so many thoughts projected by the mind, it is inevitable to be some how in the grip of the mind. We of course ride along with it and thus we can not just be.  So just being becomes something that is rather hard to do unlike what we may think when we hear the notion "just be".
So just being may have some threads behind it. There may be other things one may have to do in order to completely just be. The mind actually has tricks in order to put us under its grip in order for us to be in its realm rather than just be.
At first we do have to have a legitimate authority to control the drive of our mind. We also can play tricks of our own to our own mind in order to slide out of its grip. But being totally free of it is something that is a complete different story with a completely different outcome.

What is our purpose in life?

The question "what is my purpose in life?" comes through one's mind quite a few times during one's lifetime.
Many believe that there is a destiny set by a higher power to all of us and they are also many that believe that there is no such a thing as destiny.
Being a human being, it is unavoidable to feel a want for some kind of meaning and purpose. The notion that there is no meaning or purpose would definitely make any human being devoid of something and would leave an empty space in our hearts.
I guess unless we as humans are all knowing, there can't be a definite and sure answer to the question "what is my purpose in life?" One can not say one's ideas about this puzzle is for sure right and the others is for sure wrong because we have yet to know a lot.
We can however go about trying to see this puzzle in a logical way and according to evidences we have and know till date.
According to all the evidences that we human beings have and gathered until now and seeing this puzzle from a point of view of an individual, we may not have been created or made to have or fulfill individualistic purposes. Meaning to say that we as individuals were not created for individualistic purpose and meaning that were preset for us by something else. This is actually according to the insights we have now and may change according to new logical evidences. Even though that may be the case we still are free to have and be devoted to any purpose we choose to have and follow. Also we are free to make any meaning of it all.
When looking at it in a different perspective and not in a perspective of an individual, we were created to fulfill life's/nature's purpose. Meaning to say that life wants to exist and ensure the extension of its existence in this realm now. Not only that, but life also wants to figure all out about this reality through us and for us according to our nature of existence. This is because life is actually us. We are the representatives.
The above notion is a direct result of the scientific evidences till date on the way life exists, reproduces, evolves and on the way how life or evolution reacts to individuals in need and species as a whole. It is also based on logic made by observing the evidences like on what we are as life and what life is itself.

What are feelings?

Feelings are senses that a conscience life form senses. It is a mechanism devised by nature/life/ that enables life forms to feel their surrounding, strive for pleasure in it and run away from dangers in it.
Feelings are actually crucial in making life life. Without feelings, life would be senseless and illogical. So, are feelings real? Of course they are real but they are only real when there is an experiencer or a sensor.
But why do we experience things the way we do? Is that the only way that they can be experienced? Meaning to say, is the sense of burning the only way that fire can be felt? Is sweetness the only way sugar can be fealt?
That most probably is not it. We feel to the tune of the way that is suitable and unsuitable, desirable and undesirable for life to exist in this realm. The extent at which we feel is also the extent at which the action done while feeling is good for our body's survival or bad for it. So it all depends on the sensitivity of the mechanism that nature gave us to be alive which is our body. 
The mechanism that make life exist or mechanisms like us can't exist in cases like extreme heat or cold and hence the feeling of burning and chill and thus discomfort. The differences and distinctions between feelings is for us/life forms to know exactly what is going on when we feel them. The comfort and discomfort which is generally the main objective of feeling is for our conscience or sub conscience to know whether what we are doing is suitable or unsuitable for life to continue its existence at its present form.

How to know one self

Knowing oneself is actually a basic to anything one wants to do in today's world or reach a level of happiness that one wants to achieve conceptually.
These tips on how to know oneself are actually most helpful for those at around the beginning of knowing themselves.

1) It may take a lot of time:-  One needs to know that knowing self is not a one minute thing. It is there to stay for the whole life and to know one self it takes a long time.
2) Spend time with yourself:- At the beginning of the stage one needs to spend time with self and review honestly what is going on in one's life.
3) Get acquainted with all your feelings:- Getting acquainted with one's feelings is a very crucial step.

Every story is a lesson to be learned and a value to be set

We are born into this world blank, with no idea of what's going on and what to do except for the instinct given to us by nature. As human beings, we have it in our nature to learn constantly. Even if we don't weather we like it or not life constantly learns from our experience.
Living in the modern age we encounter different experiences and hear different stories which may be diverse in basis or somehow similar to each other.
Even though some experiences may disturb our chosen way of living, it is good to learn some kind of lesson from all sides.
If one really thinks about it, from all the experiences, there is a lesson to be learned. In fact all experiences are lessons to be learned directly or collectively. Lesson learned inevitably leads to setting up values according to the lessons learned.

Who are we?

We are mechanisms that consist of all components that work together to be able to make us function as we do. It is kind of unacceptable though to us humans to think that we are just a result of materials/ components working together. But if we think logically we are just that. According to science(which is a very logical field to refer to), we came from non being to being a very long time ago when some components of the earth or chemicals, lightning, water and the atmosphere of the earth at the time sparked up and brewed up the first single cellular life forms. After that through millions of years of evolution we got to the point that we are.
If we put faith aside for a moment and try to just reason out according to evidences, this is the best we can do to explain ourselves.
But we have this feeling, this gut feeling that we are way bigger and have way deeper meaning to us. Could that be true?
Well it just might. In fact it is somehow evident we are.
There is something that remains a mystery to science about us. In fact the whole scenario of life is still a mystery. But the real mystery is how and why life evolves. Life seems to know ho and when to evolve. When it evolves it evolves in a reasonable and useful way. Also when species evolve, a whole population of a species evolve the same way. How and why? How does it know? Who is it that knows? It is a total mystery to science. It is also very likely that it will remain a mystery because of the fact that science only deals with things that can be observed and proved also the root of this phenomenon called life is something that can't be observed at all.
There are lots of theories outside of science on what we are. It is hard to judge on which is right and which is wrong. But many including myself believe, if looked deeply enough, they all or some or one may of them may be true.
The logical explanation though believed by some including myself is that we are life itself. If thought logically and according to evidences of observations, this idea seems to make perfect sense and is perfectly logical. We are life and life is us. Life itself being untouchable, unobservable and overall not sensible to us as humans, it is something that is evident to be much larger than us us humans in meaning and in wisdom and to top it all off it is clearly evident that we are it itself. Mind boggling isn't it?

How to be a good liar

Telling a lie is not something that is advisable unless it is completely and absolutely necessary. It is also not advisable for those whose beliefs prevent them from telling a lie at any situation.
According to many, sometimes lying is abselutely necessary and it can prevent some unwanted things from happening in our lives.
Sometimes not being good at lying can even get us in more trouble that net telling a lie and getting in trouble.
Well here are some tips on how to tell a good lie and be a good liar.
1) believe the lie yourself:- Sometimes people can detect a lie just by seeing one's eyes and the way one acts when telling a lie. In order for that not to happen, one has to believe the lie. If one momentarily believes in the lie, one wouldn't show the signs that one may show when telling a lie one didn't believe in.
2) Try to get real convictions to the story so that it would be easy to believe the lie:- For example if one wants to tell a lie stating that one is sick when one is really not, one can try to
- imagine that one is sick while telling the lie
- try to think of little discomforts that one has at the time one is telling a lie and try to believe that they are sicknesses themselves.
- think of a recent sickness and believe that it hasn't completely been cured even if it did and even if it did try to believe that there are some aftereffects.
The above tips help in believing the lie so that those hearing the lie wouldn't detect it on one's face.
3) Don't think of the truth or the fact that you are telling a lie but be bold faced:- Thinking of the truth and the fact that one is lying while telling a lie makes it terribly obvious that one is lying to those that are listening.
4) Try to connect to the stories and try to be emotional according to your normal accord :- Don't over do or under do this step. Because your normal state of feelings are best fit for you. 
5) Don't be afraid to look at the listener right in the eye:- Looking at the listener right in the eye makes the listener think that one has a full confidence and therefore must be telling the truth.
6) Stick to the story:- For one's lie to work in the long term, one should stick to the story through thick and thin whatever happens.

What is reality?

It is human nature to ask , wonder and seek the truth. While wondering, one of the topics that raises the highest curiosity on us all would be 'what is reality'?....... So what is it?
Reality is hard to explain but to try, reality is something that can be witnessed or experienced by the beholders. It is also truth and existence. If it exists it is reality.
Reality is arguably debatable and also not certain except for the reality of experience itself. It is arguable that there are many realities outside of ours. Meaning to say that there are things that may exist but we can not experience them because of the page of reality that we are in. Anything that lives in that other page of reality can experience it. Also those on another page of reality cant experience ours.
Reality again is debatable. What some may consider unreal and imaginary may be argued by others as real and that most can't experience them.
So reality is actually uncertain and debatable and the only way that we can be certain of it is by experiencing it. Even then it is debatable whether or not what we experience is actually what we think we experience. The only reality that is not debatable is the reality of experience meaning to say us as life. There is no denying that I exist.

A very controvertial but a very proper and useful advice

There probably are millions if not billions of advices given to different people at different times. There are advices for many situations. But the biggest of them all in its usefulness would be advice given for life in general. In that situation as funny as it may seem, this is one of the more proper advices that one may ever get. Here it is.

Have a wide scope but follow only one path, be open minded but if whole heatedly convinced don't look the other way, try to know all but ignorance may be your bliss, be brave but fear may save your life, take risks but be ever cautious, do what others do but don't follow the crowd, be quick in action but patience pays, be very serious in life but have a blast, never forget where you came from but the past is always dead to you now, have a goal and a plan for your future but know that tomorrow may never come, hold firm but let loose, be calm but veracious, be wise but being a fool may give you happiness, know that people are generally good in nature but don't trust people, stay as far away from danger as you can but taking risks has better results, be innocent but cunning, know that there is nothing new under the sun but know that every second and everything is always new. 


Life has no sense of humor!

Life as a whole by itself is an entity, exists and has life. Life as a whole has its own way of recognizing and its own pace of change and growth. Life is understanding, eager to survive, serious and responsible. It is also complex, complicated, very hard to grasp and full of experience. It also has diverse properties like cruel, unforgiving, cunning etc. We can know all this by looking deeply in its expressions as we ourselves are expressions of life. But life absolutely has no sense of humor if we look in any of its expressions. Isn't that humorous?

What is moral?

Moral is a set of conviction that a person acquired about life and the way to live. Morals of one steer a person in a way that a person is convicted. Its not only morals that play a role in the way a person lives but also strengths, weaknesses, feelings etc. One sticking to the moral values that one believes in through thick and thin, high and low maybe said to have good moral strength. One choosing moral values that would most benefit one, one's state of happiness and also others may be said to have intelligent and good moral value.
So moral is just a set of rules that one believes is right to follow in life and in situations that arise in life.

What is moral strength?

What is moral strength? It is nothing but stubbornness. Having a strong moral strength means having a stubborn mind. Having a stubborn mind makes one resistant to other ideas than the morals that one is already indoctrinated with thus giving one the title of having a strong mind or moral.
The laws of physics also work on ideas and thoughts. How can we identify a strong metal and a weak one? It is simply by testing their stubbornness thus their resistance. The same applies to our mind and way of thinking.
So strength means resistance and resistance comes from stubbornness. But having a good moral or an intelligent mind is a whole different issue than having a moral strength and strong mind. Anyways this teaches us that the indoctrinations that our children learn should be watched of with vigil and care. Because a strong mind wont let other ideas come between him and his convictions. But one should not be fooled, that doesn't mean that that is an intelligent mind.

What is life? What are the theories of creation of life?

Life is an entity in a realm that stands as a witness to all things that exist in reality. Life arguably is the only witness there is to existence. It also is a witness to the actuality of existing. It is a witness of existence first and then a witness to existence. One shouldn't get it mixed up.
Life being a witness, is also an expression. It also expresses and has expressions. it is an expression that can also express.

Creation of life 

There are many theories on how life first started. Here are the most acceptable ones by many.
1) The scientific view:- The scientific view of creation is that life began by accident as chemicals and acids and the condition of the environment of the earth at the time mixed up and brewed up the first life forms which are simple cells.
2) The creationism view:- Almost all ancient religions believe that life was created by a higher power even if they differ in the name of the God and also in the specific details of how God or a higher power created it. Here are some major religion's view on how life a higher power created life.
 i) Christianity and Judaism  - According to the holy Bible and the Torah, in the beginning the universe, the world and all that dwell in it was created by God within 6 days.
ii) Muslim:- According to the holy Qur'an, Allah(God) created all living things from water. Islamic view of creation somehow connects with the scientific view but in Islamic point of view Allah(God) deliberately created life and then humans separately from others.
III) Buddhism :- According to Buddhism there is no beginning and and to anything and everything constantly gets recycled.
IV) Hinduism:- Hinduism also shares the ideas of Buddhism. Although different in describing it Hinduism also believes in constant cycle of everything. Although god Brahma is said to have created all in Hinduism, Hinduism believes in constant creation and destruction of everything.
V) Sikhism:- According to Sikhism God created the universe the earth being part of it and life as well. Sikhism believes that life and the universe have been evolving since then.

How to change bad habits

Habits are hard to break because of the simple fact that they are habits and the body and mind are used to such actions or thoughts at certain periods of time. Habits obviously form addiction at the end. 
It can be said that the best cure for habits is prevention. Not being in any habitual addiction is one of the greatest freedoms. Any addict trying to recover will tell you that the worst day was the day they picked up the first whatever to use it and get in a habit of using it that they cant stop and may have to go through hell if they don't do what ever it is they do.
If a person is determined enough and divisive enough, it is possible to break bad habits. Here are a few sensible ones.
1) Admit that you have a problem:- What is meant by admitting is admitting to oneself. By admitting one will definitely will be eager to find a way to tackle the problem.
2) Be serious about wanting to break the habit:- Just admitting to self that you have a problem may not be enough. But admitting and wanting to change the habit is the kick start to breaking the habit. One has to be serious about wanting to break the habit or the inner stamina will not be high enough to seriously tackle it.
3) The main thing is changing your driving motor :-  This is the main potent weapon of all. This is for addicts. It has recently been argued that addicts are born addicts. Well it doesn't matter. Once one wants to change bad habits one should try any way to stop those habits. But the enduring change will come when one changes one's driving motors. Meaning to say, goals, desires, aspirations, philosophy towards life etc. When the mindset of one is in a mindset that doesn't allow such bad habits, one is for sure to stop the habits for good. This is a total shift in mind so is not easy to do and not something that happens in a short time.
4) Don't be around agents that will tempt you to fall off the wagon:- One has to be in an environment where triggering agents of the past habit are not around. Otherwise during times that one is trying to change habits, the temptations would be too hard.
5) Get involved and sink in to a life style that doesn't tolerate such habits:- Be around and be involved with people and environment that are totally against such habits and create a life around that environment. That would prevent one to return back to old habits because one would be afraid of loosing one's life.

What is Truth?

Truth is something that is hard to define or underline. Everything in nature being open to argument conceptually, it makes it hard to underline on truth or even conceptualize it. If truth is to be an answer to questions, truth is the correct actuality on all the possible conceptual or experiential questions. If not, generally, truth is an actuality of what is. Yes, truth is just actuality. 
The truth is more understood with certainty by experience rather than conceptually. In fact some argue that anything not experienced may not be true at all. The only way to be sure of the truth is to experience it and there is no other way around it. Even science supports this.
Life is a witness of the truth. Or maybe truth experiencing the truth. How can we know that for sure? Well life is truth since we experience it and can be sure to be actual. Whatever we experience is also the truth since we experience it and can be sure of it. Then logically both are truth.
So what is actually true and what's not? Well the best answer I can give is that there is an old saying "live and learn".

How to overcome fear of the unknown

Fear is a natural feeling that almost all creatures have. It is part of the natural defense system that helps prevent us not to go to dangerous situations that may put us in dangers way. it is very useful in preventing us from danger. But sometimes we may still be drowned in fear when it is unnecessary and that fear may prevent us from living a stress free enjoyable life and from spending a quality time during certain situations.
There are many types of fears. But now here are some tips on how to overcome fear of the unknown.
1) Know that all there is is Energy, Matter and Life:- Of course there may be other things, but they are not excessable to us. Law of the universe doesn't allow other things from other realms to be in this realm. Also whatever that we may fear out there that maybe unknown is life, the same in basic entity as us.
2) Know that death is not at all something to fear:- It is natural for all lifeforms to fear death. It is because we don't know what is out there after death. But does not knowing justify a terrified state of fear? What if it is real peace and tranquility that we may find after death?
3) Know that nature doesn't allow us to bear anything more that we can handle:- By nature, life shuts down its ability to experience when the experience is something that is more than it can handle. It is the same in all lifeforms.
4) Science confirms there is nothing out there that we can directly experience other than what we already know:- If you are afraid of ghosts or any unexplainable phenomena such as that, science confirms with detailed study that you should not worry. If you believe in it, your mind may play a trick on you. But there is nothing such as that out there that we can directly experience according to detailed study throughout generations.

What is the ego?

The ego is a state of awareness that exists mainly in humans and very mildly in animals. It is an existence outside of the physical reality but connected to it because it exists in the process of the existence of the physical existence. It arises mainly of a concern, a concern of what others think of one or even of what one thinks of self and thus a feeling of great shame or great glory when the outcome of what others think about one is felt. Even though the ego is no material, it is a solid existence beyond the control of our conscience.
The ego is very powerful. It can have a major effect on the state of our moods and desires.
As an existence itself, it wants to survive. It wants to survive to the extent that it may even require the death of a person in order to survive. It also somehow gives an illusion that it will survive after the death of the person and as the everliving reminder of that person.

How to succeed in life

Success is something that can be said to have many definitions. But success in short can be defined as an achievement of a premeditated goal. Success is very important in our human lives. It has no or little relevance to animals. Success is a reward achieved for our desires and our actions implemented in fulfilling those desires. There are lots of ways on how one can be successful. Here are some ways.
1) Have a definite goal:- The first step in succeeding is to know what exactly one wants or if not exactly have an area of destination in achievement.
2) Plan and devise away on how to achieve that goal:- This actually may take a lot longer than what most think. It also takes a lot of effort as there are lots of things to figure out. This is one of the most crucial steps in achieving a goal. When planning and devising a way, most if possible every possible outcomes should be thought through. This step is very crucial. If this step is not done properly, the whole outcome may be undesirable so this step is not one to be done in a hurry. This step can also be improved on on the way of achieving a goal.
3) Build up your confidence:- Confidence is one of the crucial ingredients in many aspects of life. Without confidence one wouldn't have the motivation or strength to go through processes and disciplines and implement them properly.
4) Implement the preplanned steps:- Plan without implementation is like a body without life. So serious thought and action is required on implementing the steps according to plans.
5) Keep your thoughts and desires on the goal:- If one's thoughts and desires get carried away to other things that may make the plan fail, it is very important for one to step back and think about what the goal means to one and get back on track.
6) Surround yourself with people that are suitable for achieving your goal:- If one surrounds oneself with people that may lure one from the path that one has decided to take to achieve a certain goal, one should be sure that one will get lured away. There is an old saying "birds of the same feather flock together". But if one surrounds oneself with people of the same type of desires one can almost be certain they will help tremendously in getting there.
7) Work hard and give proper praise for a step by step achievement.:- There is no escaping from working hard. If one wants to achieve something one needs to work hard. One should also give proper praise to self for the successful steps taken to get to the desired goal.
8) Watch, hear and read things that will constantly make you motivated towards that goal:- It is crucial to constantly be motivated. So it is always good to frequently watch about, hear about or read about things that makes one motivated towards that goal.
9) Always have a can do attitude:- Believing in self is a very crucial ingredient in success. In fact it can be said it is the main one. Always believe in self.

How to resist temptations

Resisting temptations are arguably the hardest thing to do by anyone ever. What makes it so hard is that temptations are feelings that tend to lure us into doing things that we like and enjoy or things that are easier and more satisfying for us while we shouldn't be doing them for a higher reason and purpose.

Here are some tips on how to resist temptations.

1) Stay focused on the main goal:- Temptations usually arise more when one shifts attention to other things and gets lured in to them in thought. The lid untightens and other agents like temptations are free to slide through.
2) Don't entertain temptations:- One might say that just thinking about the temptations is alright. But one is in for a surprise. Entertaining temptations is a sure path to failure.
3) Be asfar away as possible from agents that trigger temptations:- Agents that trigger temptations are gravitating. One has to know that the law of gravity also works on thoughts. So in order not to be gravitated by them one should stay away as much as possible from agents.
4) Try to build a wall around things that you don't want to do:- By building a wall, there would be a lot more at stake if one fails. So one is more likely not to fail.
5) Know that the longer you stay away from them the more power you get and sometimes to completely fall off the bridge all it takes is one:- If what one is trying to resist is something very serious, one must know that the longer one stays away from them the more power one would get. Also to completely fall off the wagon all it may take is one.  
6) Pray:- Of course this might sound silly. But if one has a higher power it might help to pray. One should not underestimate the power of prayer.
7) Seek proper help from proper people:- Sometimes letting people know what one is in might give one clues on how to overcome them when unexpected. The ideas of many is better than one.

How to be happy

Happiness is arguably the most desired goal of all humans and arguably of all creatures that feel their experience in life. It is total happiness that we humans desire and strive for and we aim to get it in different ways. There are many theories on happiness for example, one theory says happiness is determined by genes, another says that happiness is something that is not to be chased. There are also theories of spiritual teachers like Buddha and others. Religiously it is said that finding God is the key to happiness and all there is on earth and beyond. It is hard to judge on and say who is right and who is wrong. To each his way...  But here are some tips that may help one on getting on the path of being happy and staying there.
1) Be true to self:-  The first step that one can take (if one hasn't taken it already) in order to be happy is to be true to self. To be true to self means to know the limitations and good qualities of self and accepting them in advert accepting who one is totally and unconditionally. After that try to overcome the limitations according to one's needs and desires. This is not a simple process and may take time to achieve(if not already achieved). But one needs to devote time and concentration on finding one's self. So one needs to be eager, patient and persistent. Eagerness will lead the way.
2) Face up to the limitations:- Once one knows the strong sides and the limitation of one's self(honestly), one needs to devise ways of improving on the limitations according to needs and desires. The key to this point lies on not running away from the challenges that one needs to face in order to improve on self. The challenges are within so there can not be running away from them as they are part of one. 
3) Give honest credit to self:- If one has done the above honestly, one is sure to have faced challenges and acquired wisdom about self. That means one has already overcome some or many challenges by sticking to them and facing them. Then one should see the challenges that one has overcome, it maybe within or outward challenges, one should give an honest credit to self and feel good about self. This boosts the confidence of one honestly.
4) Be flexible, optimestic and constantly learn from surroundings:- If all of the above is or has become a thing of the past or child's play, one should know that in order to be happy one should always be flexible and optimistic and should look at the positive sides of life as much as possible. One should also always learn from surroundings constantly.
5) Don't forget to be aware of self:- One should be in constant touch with self and have a constant check on self.
6) One should do things that one enjoys:- All the above is the basis for happiness. Then after that to make the walls, one should do things that one enjoys and slowly get in touch with one's happy side.
7) Generate enough money to treat self:- Without enough money, it is hard to be happy and to treat self according to desires. So one should have a stable income scheme.
8) Meditate:- Meditation is a sure path to calm the mind and the soul. So constant meditation will definitely lead to a happier, calm and peaceful result on self.
9) Be in the now, and don't get trapped in thought:- It is arguable that the final stage of happiness is to be in the now without getting trapped in the thought process whenever desired and whenever not necessary. Being constantly in the now without thought when thought isn't needed kind of stimulates the power there is in the now and that state of being in the now is kind of a blissful state that is hard to explain but exceeds the expectations of the state 'happy' and thus this elevates the state of one's happiness to a whole different level.

How to sleep better

Sleeping is very necessary for the rewinding process that all humans and most animals need daily in order to function properly. It is still not known precisely why we need sleep but without adequate amount, humans can not function properly as they would with adequate amount of sleep. If the state of constant sleeplessness persists it is known to be fatal.
That being the case, it is a known fact that most humans once, or maybe repeatedly face a challenge of insomnia or sleepless state and have a hard time sleeping. That in adverse affects the way of their lives, the way they function and the way they feel at daytime. So at times when it is hard to sleep, here are a few ways that can help in getting a good night's rest.
1) Stay away from Stimulants such as coffee, tobacco, alcohol and other drugs:-  It is advisable that one should not drink coffee at least 6 hours before bed. It is also reported in some studies that drinking alcohol 3 or 4 hours before bed can lead to early waking, sleep disruptions and can disrupt the sleep cycle as a hole.
2) Don't overeat before bed:- It has been reported that overeating before bed and in fact eating directly before bed disrupts sleep patterns and also cause obesity.
3) Eat properly and exercise properly:- Forming a habit of eating and exercising properly are sure paths to a healthier life and also healthier sleep.
4) Take care of situations that you have to take care of:- Sometimes our night's rest may be disturbed by our conscious not feeling at rest. That means that there is something in our life that we need to take care of or correct before our conscious or subconscious gets its rest. 
5) Don't get involved in your thoughts while trying to fall asleep:- This actually is a very potent and important method. It is normal for people to get caught up in their thoughts while in bed that they get carried away in the flood of their own thoughts and lose the precious sleep that they need. It actually is quite hard to stop thinking when we want. The best method to do so is, instead of getting carried away by own's thoughts try to just watch the thoughts as a different entity and constantly watch. That way, thoughts come and go before one's own eyes and slowly one will get drifted away into sleep.

Happiness

Happiness is a reward generated by the brain that makes the one that experiences dwell in a state of high pleasure. Its opposite is sadness and sorrow.
Happiness usually has a limit and is short lived. It is arguably the main thing desired by all living things that feel their experience. It is in fact an arguable issue that the main purpose and goal of life itself is to be in a constant bliss and blissful experience forever. That is after knowing all there is to know.
Happiness has an opposite for a reason. The reason being in order to survive in the reality that we are in we need other types of experiences and its opposite as well in order to ensure our survival. The reality that we are in is a reality that everything has an opposite. It is not a suitable reality for total happiness spontaneously. If it were so we would have been created or have evolved directly to beings that totally experience bliss without any hurdles forever without death. In this reality there are many challenges and hurdles that may eliminate us and thus we needed to have other feelings that would make us prepared for the worst, tackle those problems, beat the competitions and etc. We can not overcome all those hurdles that are real just by staying happy all the time. Other feelings will make us get up and want to overcome those for our own sake. We needed the others just to survive.
It is arguable that the main goal of life is survival/experience together with happiness forever. As stated earlier in the state and reality that we are in total happiness without knowing the other side of our reality and evolving accordingly has disastrous consequences.
Argumentative points life itself doesn't want to experience unhappiness and happiness is the main goal.
- Automatically triggered death of experience once the limit of unhappiness or pain is reached
- All life forms strive for survival and happiness and avoid unhappiness and death.
- All the mechanisms we lifeforms acquired through creation/evolution are for the betterment of our life thus happiness
- It is logically unfair and stupid to exist for anything but happiness.
Consequences that would have come if living things were totally and spontaneously always happy before life understands and conquered reality and evolved
- It would prevent excellence via competition
- Sometimes it is good to have an opposite to appreciate happiness itself
- In our reality it would have put us in the face of danger and we wouldn't have survived
- Limit the total experience of life to happiness and would blind it of the other realities.
- Would prevent experiences such as love and desire because they have an opposite that come out of them which are very good for us in our current situation

When is it ok to lie?(Morally speaking)

We as humans living in  the modern age are taught not to lie. I also would argue that most of us were brought up that way. Lying as we were told is something which is morally demeaning and a shameful sign of immoral quality. I am pretty sure that most would agree with that idea.
Lying of course as it is understandable naturally, is not something of a good moral quality. But the question here is, when is it ok to lie?(Philosophically and morally speaking). Well lets first see what lying is. Lying is not telling the truth about something, some event or some story. It could be due to various reasons. No matter what the reason maybe, if the story told is not the truth, it is called a lie. Lets consider different scenarios.
1) Say you are in a middle of a situation, and the situation has it that if you tell the truth about a certain event, you would lose say a million dollars. But if you lie about the situation you would gain that money. Is it ok(morally) to lie at this situation? Can we logically say that a person lying in this situation is immoral?
2) Say you have nothing to lose or gain if you tell a lie or tell the truth. Is it ok(morally) to lie in this situation? Again can we logically say a person lying in this situation is immoral?
Ok, You probably kind of guessed it already. There is no definite answer to the question "is it ok to lie" at certain situations? and also to the question "when is it ok to lie"? The answer to the question is a question itself. The question is what moral values does the person lying believe in and follow? If the value that the person believes in and follows is that he should not lie at any circumstance, then it maybe immoral for that person to lie at any circumstance. But if the moral value that one believes in and follows is something that doesn't care whether one lies or not, one can lie at any circumstance as long as one has a reason to and it would not be immoral of one to do so. But then again even if one believes in and follows a moral value that forbids one to lie at any circumstance, and one still lies, nobody has the right to judge. Just maybe, it maybe logical to say that person does not have a good and strong moral value.

Real Belief

Real belief is a conviction that is present in one without one trying to believe. It is being convinced of something or some story without any physical or psychological attempt. When one is said to really believe in something, one believes in that something completely and wouldn't let that belief down because it is impossible to do so.
How should one believe in something? What is the reasonable way of belief in something? Should I lie to myself and believe in something I really don't? Can somebody enforce their way of belief on somebody else? Should I try hard to convince myself to believe in something? Personally I don't agree with all of the above. Not only that I do not agree with it, it is illogical, unreasonable and against God given nature itself because as I stated earlier real belief that has to come from deep within by really being convinced about it. Otherwise it would just be lying to oneself.
Let me try to reason that Idea. I strongly believe that I am alive and I have a deep conviction about that. I also do believe that I am writing this article right now. I am also deeply convinced about that too. Now if I try to disbelieve the fact that I am writing this article right now, try as I may I do not think that it would be possible. Now that is what is called real belief.
The same goes with believing. It should just come naturally. One shouldn't try to just believe in something. There is no such thing as saying "now I am going to believe". It is plain preposterous. Because if you really believe it it would be impossible to disbelieve even if you try. Just like I can not disbelieve the fact that I am writing this article at this moment however I may try.
Yes the term belief is that simple and people still go to wars over it. Killing for the sake of belief is overriding the already installed God given rule of instinct that God installed in us that killing someone is one of if not the greatest sins anyone can ever commit. I think that all Holy Books agree on that matter. May we ask what is it that that makes them go to wars for the sake of belief? For the other not being convinced enough of something that hasn't sunk in for that individual? Wow! This for sure backs the statement that God was really disappointed with his creation, namely man!

Life itself is alive.

It is an inescapable question that all humans must ask themselves or maybe others how we all came about. It is also unquestionable that whoever thinks about the question and the reality of our aliveness will definitely be mind boggled and shocked with amazement that the fact of reality itself is real but not graspable.
There are many theories on how we all came about and got the state of aliveness. The religious view says that God created all, all including life and us. I do not argue with that but since we are talking logic based on evidence rather than faith lets look at it in the scientific point of view.
Nowadays Darwin's theory of evolution is arguably almost fully accepted by the scientific community. According to the theory we all evolved and got to the stage that we are slowly from simple cells to the point that we are through millions of years of evolution. Simple cells evolved to complex cells, complex cells to multi cellular life, multi cellular life to bilaterians, bilaterians to incects and seeds, insects and seeds to amphibians and it continues to the stage that we are now. 
If we look deeply on the way that life evolved throughout, we would see that life evolved in a way that it would most increase its chances of survival in the environment that it is in. According to the theory of evolution two organisms of the same species would evolve differently according to the geographical location that they are allocated to. Both will evolve in a way that would best suit their survival in the new environment. Lets look at ourselves, we see that we have different organs in our bodies each consisting of systems, which themselves consist tissues, which again themselves contain cells (may not be complete and not in perfect order). From this we can observe that we contain a very sophisticated system within us which functions perfectly and accordingly. This complex and complicated system and its different parts function in coordination with eachother to sustain the life of the organism which as a better chance of surviving and a different way of experiencing life than its partitioned self as system, organ, tissue or cell. We should highlight the fact that each organ, system, tissue and cell are all designed for a specific purpose all there to play a role in the functioning of the organism. Now think. This all came from a simple cell. How? If there is no designing agent, how could this all be? How could this kind of complexity occur in different life forms in different ways and function perfectly in all? How is it that all organisms evolve according to the environment that they are in in order to be suitable for that environment?
It has recently been noted that the life experience that one goes through will be something that one will pass to one's offspring. It is an obvious fact that that is how life tries to overcome the challenges it faces. You see, it does not only pass the information of the experience but it also will create a way to tackle any problem that it faces continuously by evolving accordingly. 
The above definitely makes us stress the idea that life itself has life and that it stores information of what it has encountered and passes it to the next generation and many more generations and if there are problems that it continuously faces it tries to tackle it by giving us agents to tackle them like feelings e.g fear, or by making us evolve to an organism that is suited to tackle a problem it faces continuously.

Humanity

Humanity is a being of a species so called humans/homosapians or a being of a member of a species so called humans/homosapians. Humans as a species have gone tremendous length in distancing themselves from that of the status of animal ism to which one might argue they have removed themselves from the level of animals into a whole new level and category called humanism(figuratively speaking).
Humans can think and execute complicated ideas. With that on their side to benefit the next generation more than them, they can store and pass information from one to another or to another generation. With that the next generation can improve on the information passed and pass it to the next and it goes on.
Humans have an excelled level of thinking and information that they are begining to chalange their creator or nature Himself/itself. They are devising and have deviced ways of overcoming the limitations bestowed on them by nature.
In this planet, it is only humans that can question the essense of reality, it is only humans that can question the essense of themselves. Whether they have figuired it out or not is another question. 
What is the future of humanity? It is a brainstorming question indeed. Will humanity evolve to another species, will they stay the same, will they answer the ultimate question of reality and themselves, will they ever know what is beyond, will they be able to live in total utopia, bliss and immortality, will they overcome every challange that nature has burdened them with, will they reach an ultimate goal, will they be able to do the impossible are questions that all are for sure eager to know. But yet, if so, then what??
As it is proved in science it is impossible to know the future.(at least as of now). So the future would have to tell us itself.

Everything is an allowance

Time and space. Space time as commonly known is the most basic and the base of our allowance. Without them being allowed, nothing would have happened and nothing would have occurred. If there was no space things would not have been allowed to be. If there was no time things wouldn't have been allowed to happen. After these come the rest.
Life is an allowance to experience but life in this reality can't exist without a media. So our physical bodies are an allowance in which we can experience life with, our thoughts are an allowance in which we can review and study and make more out of life with.
We can not say that there just was vacuum to begin with then spontaneous creation like most scientific theories claim. Total absence of anything is still something if something can exist in it. It is a place allowed for things to be in. Nothing is not something that things can be in because if something can be in it, it is a legitimate place.
Total nothing is something we can not think about. We can not try to imagine it because there is nothing to imagine of.
So all even total vacuum being an allowance given the question begins.

Nature is deceitful.

Nature is a very deceitful system if we look at it in the perspective of an individual which I beyond any reasonable doubt am convinced that we do have the unquestionable right to. One might question how. How is nature deceitful? The answer is very simple if you look deeply enough to a certain level on which I am not saying there isn't a deeper level of perspective on.
Look at us. Struggling to survive, striving for reward and running away from the opposite blindly without knowing the real reason behind it all. Well it is not our fault. It is the deceitful nature of nature that has entrapped us all without our consent. But wait there is more. Nature's entrapment is deeply rooted in us that we are so attached to them. It has given us many pleasures to strive for like appreciation, love, fame, power, glory etc. It also has given us displeasures to flee from like pain, shame, stress, sorrow, discomfort etc all in the name of getting us involved in life so that we will strive, achieve, and avoid things and in return ensure the survival and inbetterment of life. Unless involved in life completely and fully we wouldn't mind anything and thus our chances of inbetterment and survival sink tremendously. That is where the tactic and deceit come in. Being involved fully ensures our struggle for survival and thus increases the chances of our survival.
It is not fair. I didn't ask to be alive. Neither did I to experience pain nor pleasure. But I do anyway. Without those experiences, I wouldn't struggle. Nothing to strive for, nothing to avoid. This would just put me in the face of danger and even then I wouldn't have a thought.
The problem would arise when looked at a larger scale. If nobody wants or needs anything, there wouldn't be acts to ensure our survival let alone the next generation. There wouldn't even be a next generation since we wouldn't desire to do anything. Danger would come our way and we wouldn't flinch thus annihilation.
It is to ensure its own survival that life entrapped us in these feelings of needs, wants, fears, displeasures and so on. It is not fair since we weren't asked for our consent as individuals. There is just our emotions telling us 'there is danger get away from it' or 'there is pleasure there and you need it, go get it'. If we refuse then comes sorrow and pain which we feel without a choice. I mean it is just not fair.
There are of course deeper levels that we can go into to look at life. Which is that we are life itself. We are part of life. But there is a problem. The problem being that, if that is true, we were not designed to know it naturally and even if we did knowing it is not enough. We naturally do not experience the reality that we are life itself rather than individuals as individuals. That gives us the reason to argue that nature is deceitful and entrapped us all unfairly.
