'Pursuit' and 'Impossible'

Pursuit:
Princeton rates it as

the act of pursuing in an effort to overtake or capture; "the culprit started to run and the cop took off in pursuit"

a search for an alternative that meets cognitive criteria; "the pursuit of love"; "life is more than the pursuance of fame"; "a quest for wealth"

So what do we pursuit in life, money, 'happyness' status, etc. so why do we call it pursuit, ask Chris Gardner in his early life and he would say food and shelter. Pursuit of something which one doesnt have is what makes it a pursuit. But what about pursuit of something impossible! Impossible?

Princeton defines it as

not capable of occurring or being accomplished or dealt with; "an impossible dream"; "an impossible situation"

totally unlikely

something that cannot be done; "his assignment verged on the impossible"

So is 'Impossible' really impossible? or is just something which is not achievable at this point of time? the key is 'time' If men in 18th century was asked we would go to moon in 20th century, his answer would have been impossible. If you would ask Chris Gardner or Bill Gates they would be billionaires, their answer would probably be impossible. So what phenomenon is it that makes the impossible..possible.
It is the pursuit of impossible that makes the impossible, possible. Men and women have strived painstakingly throughout their life to achieve something which was impossible to make it within the realms of possibility.
When something is not achievable, it usually means that things that are needed to achieve that goal are not discovered, those can be new formulations, new materials, new skills, new partners, anything that could achieve that goal. The time frame to achieve that goal is directly dependent to the desire of oneself to achieve it. But we know for onething..when somebody says "it is impossible" remember it is impossible for now and never underestimate humans desire to conquer the impossibility

Blogosphere

I keep wondering about blogs, how easy it has become to instant celebrity with the advent of blogs. All it takes is publish your "chronicles of daily life" put in some curses, blame it on world and some saucy pics and you are up. Be it a pros, or a politician or a dj or just plain me, it just brings drama of every individual's daily life in the theater of internet readers room. So i lamented, what would make somebody open up their world their daily routines, their likes, their dislikes to thousands out there. Is it their quest of becoming celebrity? or their interest for finding answers to their dilemma from complete strangers? or just to prove that they can write and publish? or just to prove they live the coolest life? BUt whatever it is, people are lining up to read about others. So what is it in human nature to anonymously read about other strangers life, when they cant know about their neighbors, or their close relatives, why cant the time somebody type and publish be utilised to go meet someone and talk to them. What is it in human nature that frowns when someone come over to meet them and have a tea or dinner together. what is he afraid from other person for? I am true believer that every individual has a core of humanity if he is not threatened by others be it financially or physically or socially. so why do we mask those good sides and proudly display the crown if being mean? Well to know that answer I will have keep reading more blogs, hopefully!
