I find the current teaching paradigm to be fundamentally flawed. Personally, I never got an interest in things I should’ve until it was too late. I’ll be a quarter of a century old soon, and I feel I have just begun to have an interest in learning. School never sparked that in me, and even now, the way it is presented to me feels more of a chore than an actual learning experience, which, first and foremost, should be fun.
Now, I’m not planning to understand society or the way it functions (despite of my frustrations in the inability to do so), as there are people who dedicate their life on doing precisely that, but I just want to make up for the lost time and take advantage of the short time I have left, to better understand the mistery of the place we live in. And if I can make a positive impact on someone once my journey is over, so much the better.
Here’s a bit about me:
- I’m a frustrated procrastinator, trying to kick the habit, but always seeming to not do much about it… Ironic, no?
- According to this, I’m this, and I can’t say I object. Funny how outside sources define us better than we do ourselves.
- I oppose organized religion, and have deep doubts about human claims based on faith, especially those stemming from groupthink. Religion doesn’t bring progress, at best, and completely goes against it, at worst. I’m biased towards the latter.
- I find language to be extremely limiting. We should be communicating by brain waves.
- I constantly try to cope with the inherent wickedness of mankind. We can’t escape from it, it’s essence comes from our animal ancestry. Kindness is the exception.
I’ll stop now, ’cause I’m not sure if I’m doing a better job at describing myself or other things.
I’ll probably add to this, or remove stuff, once I read this over a few times.
