Gravity's got it's own theorem. We can prove that something will fall down with a simple experiment, and if we use constants, we can predict how fast something can drop from the sky. I think that's pretty substantial proof that there's something there, not necessarily gravity.

And if you're talking about the meaning of life, biology can prove that it's just for the means of reproduction. It's written into our genes. Some things are just predetermined.

But... wishy-washy ideals? ... You can't really prove those. There's no theorem out there that can derive it's existence.

So... it can't possibly exist. That's... just the way things are.

Then what about time? You can't really prove much on that, but it's accepted everywhere, isn't it?

I think time's just a tool we made up in order to make it seem that we're actually doing something meaningful.

It's useful, but I don't think of it as anything anymore than just an apparatus.

Then I suppose friendship and protecting people are like that too. They're apparatuses people use... but they're not tangible.

But all apparatuses have their purpose, right?

So, then, what the hell's the use of things like that?

Of course everything has a purpose. It's just ... clouded sometimes.

Well, if the purpose is so damn vague, how're we supposed to use it?

Besides, they're just things that we've invented to make things easier to explain. They don't really have any natural value.

But they have some value. Individual value, I guess. One thing can mean different things to some people. It's just a fact of life, I suppose~

[A pause. A huff.]

So in the end, it's all back down to that whole perspective thing, huh.

This really isn't gonna go anywhere.

I guess that's just the fun of it~♥

Really?

But I don't see the fun of not being able to see eye to eye. Doesn't that just cause conflict?

Sometimes!...and other times it helps people realize things about one another. [ shrug ]

At least, that's what I've gotten from books.

... people can live well enough without realizing anything about anyone.

Is what I've learned anyway. From living.

I don't even want to know what kind of books you were reading.

All sorts. I didn't really narrow it down to one genre.

Bet it's most of it all's drivel anyway.
