Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished. - Lao Tzu. Baruch Spinoza beautifully clarified; nothing in nature is by chance. Something appears to be a chance only because of our lack of knowledge. When someone says I know the exact truth about this universe, we don't believe him easily until we feel it so intensely that we can say, affirmatively, that's the absolute truth of our lives. An absolute truth can't be changed in any event or incident even though how much it get pressurized. It always reveals the same conclusion even though a lot would transform and change around it. We...
