A simple reason why we don't need to understand *everything*

I was reading "10 things science can't explain (yet)" earlier. It is mind blowing in that it is simple, but the secrets that the universe holds are some that not even us humans can explain. The stuff of black holes, about why we have the biggest brains, and we can never really explain time, more on which in a later post.

Now logically and reasonably if we were to take this arument further, we can nver really understand everything as normal human beings. If we can really not, then we are living pretty comfortably without understanding it all (life goes on, and we are comfortable with that, sort of) - and thus, not understanding the significance of every little thing that happens to us - as chance or destiny, which ever you believe in - is truly an ok way to live.

I say that for 2 main reasons - 1) we don't need to spend time over-analyzing things and 2) we can focus on things that really matter and just kick back and enjoy things as they happen.

Isn't that a great way to live? Not finding meaning in everything? We wouldn't be judging everything as good or bad, happy or sad, genius or man - it would just *be*.
