Once upon a time There were two friends with different minds.
One of them loves a subject Which other used to hate
The subject was Mathematics Which one used to live And other wants to kill.
One fine morning. They decided to have a meeting. Whether maths is of any importance Or it should be dumped in a filthy garbage.
The killer said, it's all nonsense. The subject is so baseless The questions shameless And the answers meaningless
He took a deep breath and then continued
Lets take Geometry first In which proving is a must. Prove whether a triangle is congruent or not. Prove whether a triangle is similar or not. Prove whether vectors are collinear or not.
A better question will be Prove whether maths sucks or not And a much better answer will be Above examples show maths sucks. Hence proved.
Seriously, Why to prove something when we can make it from the eyes?
The lover said With a smile on his face My dear friend, we do this So we don't remain in bliss Just by seeing from the eyes A practical way is what we need to move in our life.
The killer thought for a bit and said Ok, I agree to your so called philosophical way
But what about algebra All these x,y and z, the so called variables Have created chaos in my constant world.
The lover said, I know, this stuff is a little boring and also more tough. But it teaches that life also has some unexpected turns Which we don't know how to travel at first. But later on, we are able to solve it with hard work and some luck.
Now, before you point on calculus I will myself speak on it without doing any minus or plus.
The differentiation teaches us that Whoever tries to be constant and orthodox in his views Will get reduced to zero if he doesn't move with the world.
Integration teaches us there is always a hope In the form of a constant In midst of all the problems In the form of all the variables.
It's never the subject which has mistakes It's we who see it in different ways.
