Spectator View

"All of us are spectators to everyone but our ownself." Think about it.

Well, that's a straight point to this entry. He doesn't usually make such great entrances, but sometimes it's nice to have a change.

We were talking, and he was telling me about things that were happening around him, how he's dealing with the things that are currently going about in his life.

"It's a funny thing," he said. "It's always a funny thing," he chuckled,"when you sit back and reflect. Not necessarily would it bring humour, but that's how we usually start to say something we've been pondering on," he continued, grinning in space.

"On a more serious note, we don't usually see this but in life, things happen. They keep happening again, and again, again. It is like, there's this cycle that runs. We're running on that cycle, but it's something we do subconsciously. That is, till you open your eyes and realise it consciously."

A series of events

These series of events keep happening, and the most logical explanation on why many people don't see this series of events repeating is because, they don't happen in a short time span. Each event in this series takes a long time, and once you're repeating that same event itself after you've completed one cycle, it's very unlikely you'd remember it happen as it did before. It is a logical explanation, but it's one that would no doubt, like all other theories, be disputed by others.

He analyses things. It's a hobby for him. It's him.

The only reason why the boy realised this is because, it rings a bell in him. Whenever he does something that he has once done before, it's this feeling of nostalgia that overpowers him. To him, it feels like deja-vu, only more real.

Try this: Think about something that has happen to you recently, something significant, like a series of events. Now try relate it back and try to remember if it has happened before.

That's when I break in to the entry's title.

You see, it is usually easier to point the finger at others but ourselves, reason being we tend to realise more things about others. It takes a spectator's view to realise things about ourselves.

The definition of spectators' view is that, it's an unbiased view you see when you look something. Having a spectator's view of yourself would then mean you looking at yourself from another entity's point of view. Impossible?

There's a reason why the boy realises so many things about and around him.

Do I need to elaborate further?
