Life sometimes teaches us, or more reminds us of how certain human behaviours can be fairly predictable, doesn't it? Could it be possible that the character from the third installment of the Matrix Trilogy, Matrix Revolutions, was right about the predictability of our nature specifically with emotions and hope. Hope is simultaneously the greatest source of human weakness and strength, he said. "Love is the one emotion designed to overwhelm all logic and reason.." In some cases it's true, i believe. Hope does keep as going most times doesn't it? At the same time even in times of absolute, blind and fruitless desperation, in times where we almost know for a fact that nothing will come of the things we endeavor, it is hope that tells us "no, i can do it right". And love... well, it simply blinds us to obvious truths. Love blinds us to potential hurt. Love blinds us to potential hurt we might inflict on others. Love whispers "it's ok" even in times when it's not. So this guy's analysis was on point in my book. But of course there's the bright side, the two can grow into the most positive influences in one's life, only when placed right. In both instances however, the two do make us as a species quite predictable.
