Stream of consciousness at the middle of night
Writing:
If writing is an art, why not reading is?
If there is no one to read, then what’s the point in writing?
If writers claim that they write for their own sake, then what’s the point in publishing?
Reading:
What’s the point in reading non-academic books, if what you read doesn’t stick with you?
If you want to read until the content sticks with you, doesn’t it take the pleasure away from reading?
Even if something that you read sticks with you throughout your life, what’s the point?
Bertrand Russell said, “There are two motives for reading a book; one, that you enjoy it; the other, that you can boast about it.” Can we add a third motive? People read to forget their lives?
Working :
What’s the point in working, if it doesn’t give satisfaction?
If money is the point, then why not we all become drug peddlers or smugglers, professions in which we can earn much more money?
If earning money legally is the point, then why are we so against Taxes, which are also legal?
If people say at the end of our lives, we don’t really care about how much we worked or our work doesn’t matter in our death beds, then what’s the point of working in first place?
What’s the point of this article?
This pointless article is just to keep my writing streak going. All I wanted to do was to write something in 30 minutes and hit the sack. Anyway in the long run, our planet is going to become extinct. When that’s the case, does it really matter what I write? “Viva la Absurdism”!!!!!
