Predictions
‘In your country, don’t you know where the river stops Linbaba?’ Protagonist’s best friend asks. It was in reference to a competition of predicting the water level in monsoon. Just as both of them silently stare at the raised water level of river, here in my room I sit quietly for a moment. I don’t know whether I understood the depth of the statement and digging deeper into it or I am helpless by the void it created in me.
I have heard many people say ‘ I don’t know how I did it!’ ‘ I lost control’ ‘I don’t know when I stopped feeling a certain emotion’ and most of all ‘ I don’t know when I became such person’
Is this what even Lin thought when Prabhu asked him that question?
Do we know our limits? How certain are predictions?
Also, if we have an ultimate understanding of ourselves is it going to be reflected in our outer world predictions & opinions?
