The question why?

WHY? It's a question I often ask myself. And there are lot of times when I am simply unable to get a decent convincing answer. And more over this happens when the object of concern is not me.

You tend to think that after so many years of experience of dealing with people and knowing them, you would be able to predict their actions or their behavior, or through a common pattern of behavior seen in past, you'd be able to generalize and be able to come up with the reaction in such and such situation. But to my dismay, no, that's not true. Despite of knowing those people well enough, I often come across me asking myself, why would someone do that?

I guess I am biased, I still try to look at people and judge them through my eyes. But, soon that turns out to be wrong as I suddenly ask myself that knowing this, and given so and so situation the valid action of this person should have been this. But alas! it's not. So clearly am judging them based on their behavior itself.

So, what is it that we are getting at? I think I figured that since everything around us has started to have a fixed input and a fixed output, we have started to expect a similar pattern with everything. Even if it's humans we are talking about. We need simple physical logic for everything. Whereas humans are the most interesting creatures of all. The reason that life is so interesting is that, most of the actions around you, be it of your friends, relatives, colleagues are not governed by logic, but by a complex equation of a lot of things. Making them predictable and yet so unpredictable at times. But then that's the part that makes the life and everyday so interesting. Just imagine how would it be if you knew everything coming our way, everything good and sly, barring the need to ask why?
