Hakuna Matata

I come back to watch these videos every time I feel uneasy, anxious or upset about certain trivial life events…

Hakuna Matata

This list of videos provides me just right amount of nihilism, reminding me that life is ultimately meaningless in the first place. I always find myself at peace and being able to function after watching them. I am able to remember my temporary first priority of life: to fulfill my curiosity.

This is my Hakuna Matata, or Hasa Diga Eebowai if you like :)

One of my favorite blog, Wait but why, has focused on human related topics.

After a year and a half of writing Wait But Why posts, I’ve noticed a theme: humans seem to come up a lot.

Sometimes we talk about where humans came from or where we might be going or how we’re all related; other times we look at how we interact and communicate and form relationships. We’ve talked about rich humans and famous humans and baby humans and dead humans and humans from all over the world. We’ve explored what it means to be a human, what it means to be a good human, and whether we’re all alone in the universe. And we’ve spent a lot of time trying to figure out what really matters most in this one, short human life.
