The Great Perhaps
The
Great Perhaps…. The last words of a 15th century French poet Francois Rabelais and brought to life again through the book Looking
for Alaska and character Miles.
This word caught my
attention this week.
Perhaps is the alternate
path or option which exists but the outcome is unknown. Its either a path that
is not travelled or left mid way through or not fully explored.
We are a product of our
choices, some consciously taken and some not. Various biases, ethos and many
others condition our choices. Choices exist everytime. Sometimes it presents
itself clearly as a decision and sometimes we have to seek them.
Perhaps is dramatic and
utterly hopeless at the same time. Its full of promise yet hollow.
Perhaps can never be
avoided. Our purpose is to reduce the great perhaps.
