Everything flows..

..therefore we cannot step twice into the same river. When I step into the river for the second time, neither I nor the river are the same.

This is weird. Strange. Quite scary. And true. I guess? According to Heraclitus (540-480B.C.) this is true. According to him, everything flows. Even us.

Philosophy makes me go crazy. Different theories that assume and point out different features in our ordinary daily life that- if you spend time thinking about it- actually make some sense. Sometimes. Before I go crazy from thinking to much.

The same goes with his theory about the world being characterised by opposites. If we never were ill, hungry or in war, we would never know what it is feeling well, being full or appreciating peace. I can much easier apply this theory to my own life. I think everyone can. Especially when it comes to appreciate your own family when you've missed them for quite a while. If I always was surrounded by them I'd never feel as grateful and happy as I do nowadays when I go back to Sweden or have them over here for a week or two.

The same goes with everything we (me anyway) are able feel for and appreciate with time. I think. But like I said, I always go weird and crazy thinking to much, so maybe it's me speaking old Greek now?

Anyway, back to reality now. Monday morning and Uni starting up again. And I guess the same theory goes with this, I've appreciated my Easter holiday so much this year, since had a very busy time leading up to it... Or something.. Oh God.. Better stop before losing my mind..
