The Threefold Gamble

Philosophy - that which transcends the tangible sciences - is not my forte. But being a Human is enough, they say, for in him is intertwined Philosophy; with knowledge he comes pre-built. What else would explain the seemingly philosophical bent of this writing, or it's reasoning, which is inherently illogical? Objects, People, Relationships - these form an integral part of Human life. Human is wont to own the Objects he likes, live with the People he likes, and maintain the Relationships he likes. He will not let them go; he wishes to hold on to them forever, so much so that when the mighty dominion of Nature forces him to part with these, he offers, in his capacity, all the resistance he can. If I've understood something about life, and understood it well - it is that Objects, People and Relationships are ephemeral. As much I hate to admit, opposing Nature is futile - Someday Nature reduces all possessions to mere memories, whose reminiscence though initially joyful, invariably cause the agony of departure. I know that the things around me, people around me, and the nurtured relationships, I will be forced to let go. And, as any other Human I shall seek, in agony, consolation, a rational explanation, barring which I shall have to take solace in the fact that someday I will die and all this will not matter anymore.
