If life would have followed mathematics
Life would have been simple
One plus one would be two
and two plus two would be four
But in life one plus one
May be eleven
Or the answer may be zero
Or intedeterminate
All depends on what’s
Wanted from life
And what’s willing to be given up
Many a time
Need and want
Passion and profession
Belong to mutually exclusive clubs
Maybe, just maybe
Life still is a mathematical model
Built around a set of
Complex equations full of
Irrational numbers
I venture to say “life” is not a formula. Thankfully. If so, there probably wouldn’t be need for both of you. I’d be saying “Take him, let me stay.” 😀 I’m just joking you.

Yeh, it is still a set of complex equations with irrational numbers😀

Somebody once said if the human brain was simple enough that we could understand it, we would be so simple we couldn’t understand it. Life is the same. Good poem. 🙂

Thanks Joan.
May be our wants and lack of passion make life more complex

Life is a complex equation depending on how we look at it – well written

Thank you.
Enjoy Memorial Day.
I think this Memorial Day has a special significance. All those people who lost their lives due to Covid-19 and those who gave their lives to save people infected by Covid-19.

Nice thought, one plus one for you might be 11 and one plus one for someone else might be different, it’s the game of perspectives and experience

1 plus 1, I had learnt in Class 8, gives you 10.
That was in my
Do mathematics class.
I believe in the geometric progressions of doing good, and breaking down complex equations into smaller manageable ones, and keeping life simple at all times.
The entire universe is mathematics.
Hope to learn from the Professor someday.
Enjoyed the poem. Thanks.

The universe may follow the rules of physics and mathematics and everything may be expressed as mathematical models. The day it happens in human life, humanity will lose something irreplaceable.
