The Big Question of Why?!

For me WHY is the ultimate question word, it's the most important question to ask and the most needed answer to be given.
Think about it, if who, where, when, and how were givens but you don't know why they were connected, you would be lost for example if we say "Joe is in time square today in the afternoon with Joly" Childish sentence to address the present simple, right? but if two elements are connected, and you know why they are connected, you would be satisfied.
Working in Marketing made it even more important for me because when you know WHY and deliver this WHY to your audience it's winning. People need to believe in your "why" in order to support you. If you are a brand and you are selling any kind of products, people start to make comparisons with other products, if you could make them believe why your product or service especially, you will connect with them and sell more. Because this way you convince their brains to go after your brand. You serve their rational thinking and emotional intuition.
The problem with the "Why" in life is that you never are convinced with the inner answer of your self. Every time you are curious about why things happen you need an answer that convinces your mind even if these things have nothing to do with the rationality.
I believe that life is everything but rational. We were created to live in a world where supernatural, magic, and destiny work. I'm not crazy, okay, but I believe that life is much more than mathematical equations and the laws of physics. Reasons are overrated for why somethings happen, why some people are like this and why I'm like this?!
Rarely we find a reason why time work in a certain way or why coincidence has happened! The fear of not having an answer or not having a convincing answer stops us from going further. If we don't have a clear goal or a good damnit reason to go on a certain journey we cancel it. Even that the world proved over history that the most epic, educational, and transforming events happen without planning, happen out of reasons.
That's why I decided to change things around and because I can't always answer the question of Why I should do something, why to love someone, why to give this a try, why I'm not there yet, and why life works in certain ways....... I decided to ask myself Why not?!
Why not?! is A question that needed to be answered by experience and experiment. A question that will drive me to move not paralyzes me to stop.
WHY NOT, open the door for all the possible extraordinary events to happen and all encouraging situations to be created.
So maybe the question of WHY is big.... but you know what? the question of WHY NOT, is even bigger!
Why not give it a try and look at life upside down every once and while?!
Satisfy your inner curiosity by adventures and actions not wandering around lost.
Thanks for reading <3
