Life is interesting. It is dynamic, unpredictable and yet very forgiving. You only live once. At each point, you make a decision, hoping that is the best decision, given information that you have. Can I argue that we follow a Greedy algorithm here? But then, Greedy algorithm is proven to fail in certain instances. And I believe, it applies to us too, when making life decision. However, the nice thing about life is, we only know the consequence of an action we take. Hence, we can't go back and try out other possibilities. In that sense, we'll never know what would have been best? Good.
Human is amazing. We constantly adapt and change, according to our actions and our thoughts. An old adage says that our mind is like a knife. The more you use, the sharper it becomes. I used to only partially believe this. For I feel that a person's intelligence is somewhat constant after a certain age. However, I finally realize the deeper meanings behind that adage. It is actually talking about how you will become less agile, if you stop doing something for a long time. Generalization. The best explaination I can offer to avoid a debate here. Anyway, I finally see the point ... and when it comes back, I will never loose it again.
