"Rascal Life Laundromat" (淘气自助洗衣店)
// BLURB //
The theory of multiverses suggests the possibility of multiple worlds existing all at the same time. With endless realities the possibilities would be endless! And yet German philosopher Gottfried Leibniz would argue that the world we live in and the life we have is the best possible outcome. It could not have been made better and there is a plan behind every seemingly bad event. Shi chu bi you yin (事出必有因) is a Buddhist idea explaining that everything has a relevant cause, suggesting basic justice. In other words when something bad happens it’s a direct result of your actions and nothing more. I guess that’s why they say “don’t air out your dirty laundry” instead just toss them in the washer and use the rinse cycle to reflect. Confucius’ follower Zengzi would question himself daily reflecting on his own actions as well as the impact they may have had on others. So while the worlds keep on spinning, why don’t you flash us a smile, you’re on camera!
