"hey, K. is scared of monsters, so don't scare her too much"
"I... I'm not really afraid of them. I don't even believe in them"
"I see."
"Well, if you don't believe in them, then you should'nt be afraid."
"Wrong. It's just because I don't believe in them that it's scary when something strange happens"
"You're afraid after all..."
"It's common sense. Humans are creatures that are afraid of the unknown. People in the past attributed unknown things to monsters in order to alleviate the fear of the unknown. Isn't that right?"
"Then, why don't you believe in monsters so that you can be at ease?"
"No, that would be scary."
"You're just afraid after all."

The Dejengskiean List of Theories
Below stated is a list of Theories Developed since 8 years ago. Some of them may be unsound, and they have been overwritten by newer theories. Note that from the Living Best Postulate, the subsequent theories tend to overlap each other, and draw more credibility from exsisting philosophy and knowledge
Special Awareness (2001)
- Awareness to the difference between one (me) and the others via difference in lifestyles, intentions and thinking.
- The explanation of "Because you are special" was adopted.
Project E (Aug 2001 - Nov 2001)
- First project undertaken; the first distinguishment between me and my peers (in terms of stories).
- Project E demostrates the need to follow one's identity and passion without fear of compromisation. Personally It paves way for all higher Projects and subsequent Theories.
1st Social Campaign (Jan 2003)
- A campaign aimed after project E to socialize and mantain relavence and seek support in a world of adversity.
- The need to socialize to find one's place in society
- The need to compromise one's personal identity for social identity so as to achieve competence and companionship.
Project M (Nov 2003 - Jan 2004)
- Project M was a campaign seeked for the interpretation of experiential love and companionship.
- Very much based on conventional frameworks (i.e. from movies, novels), it depicts love as a form of self gratification and achievement.
- The conventional idea of girlfriends for trophies.
Project W1
- The first project done in collaboration with others.
- The lifestyle of Extroversion and Materialism was considered (via collaborator); reflected aptly in the story.
-Postulates that the secular world was an absolute standard, and mastery of socialism and the 'way' would bring about success and happiness in life.
- The idea of collaboration to further define achievement arises.
Transition Theory (Dec 2004 -)
- Transition Theory accounts the dynamics and emotional responses towards changes in Circumstances.
- Transition Theory hypothesizes that and transition, be it of time or heart, follows the following processes- (Graduation, Transition, Acceptance, Pragmatism, Integration). A full transition occurs when these 5 processes are considered by the individual.
- Also, Transition Theory states that transition usually alternates a series of relative 'highs' and 'lows' in certain aespects.
- "When all happiness and music comes to an end, silence takes it's toil." accounts the depreciating aspects. "When the going gets tough, the tough gets going" accounts the inverse.
Cotian Theory (Jan 2005 - May 2006)
- The First Cotian Theory accounts for the Ideal Socializing, Thinking, and Living philosophy from Jan 2005 - May 2006.
- Cotian Theory, in response to the finding that not all relationships are equal, confers different levels of acquaintance to people. Lesser groups are known as 'co-workers' while higher groups are known as 'cots'. The level of relationship of a group was determined by the closeness recorded over a buffer of 3 months.
- The value of Trust was especially highlighted in the group, due to the inability to articulate 'love' ideals then. Socializing activities were then enacted to strenghten this bond of 'Trust' and promote social integrity.
- Such projections have brought about a postulate to live life based on such values i.e. 'Trust', 'hope', and 'love' emotionally. The living best was thought to be achieved when these values, coupled with physical interactions, come to a qualitative 'sacrosanct'.
Halcyon Theory (Mar 2006 - Feb 2007)
- Awareness to the failings (realistic and idealistic) of Cotion Theory brought about a need to counter the former. Halcyon theory banks its beliefs on 'Hope, Share, and Cherish" as fundamental ideals for true socialization and personal integrity.
- Halcyon Theory states that any 'present' event is usually percieved to be remnant of a 'past' event. Such perception is false, since life is all about improvement, and not stagnation.
- Halcyon Theory proposes that an integration of 'Past and Present" is needed for one to pragmatically face the "future".
- Halcyon Theory also hypothesizes that if current lifestyles are 'bad', "hope" is the value to be considered. If current lifestyles are 'Good', "Cherish" would be the determining value. Either way, the value of "Sharing" is promoted to bring about happiness and light.
Project C2 (14th Febuary 2007 - 19th May 2008)
- Project C2 was implemented to counter the inadequacies of Halcyon and Cotian Theory.
- Project C2 Highlights the need to detach oneself from certain mindsets if such mindsets are thought to be detrimental to his personal integrity.
- The ability of stop, reflect, and pen down thoughts in order to realize the "truth" from the "false truth"- or the "need" from the "want".
- the mission of Project C2 lies predominantly in reason and intellectual thought (rationalism) to straighten and guide feelings.
-Project C2 does not have any defining philosophy of it's own, but it generally touches on a 'trust' for a 'better tomorrow' (concepts borrowed from the 2 former theories).
The Materialism pitfall (May 2007 - May 2008)
- the materialism pitfall was a period where no theories were developed. Partially influenced by project C2, and due to stifling circumstances; materialism, backstabbing and lawlessness reign supreme. However, the realization of it's philosophy in "Enlightenment Theory" leads to a very important development subsequently.
Enlightenment Theory (June 2008 - 15th December 2008)
- Enlightenment Theory was a theory guided in collaboration, to dispel lawlessness and materialism. With the end of Project C2, the need for a guiding philosophy of life is renewed.
- Enlightenment Theory if formulated predominatly by reason and speculation. It proposes that the reason of failure for earlier theories lies in the lack of intellectual consideration of them (they are too emotional based)
- It distinguishes two contrasting faculties of thought- Namely the lifestlye based on feelings for immediate gratification and the Enlightened lifestlye based on careful thought, contemplation and reasoned judgement. The former lifestyle was deemed as mundane and improper, while the latter was deemed as the path to truth and enlightenment.
- The theory of the 'civil man' shows that there are certain moral values that promote development to the 'truth'. This theory still holds was later transmuted to Truth theory in Project RN and Project T.
Living Best postulate (21st December 2008 - 6th Janruary)
- Enlightenment theory states that truth can only come with reason. However, such theory was found to be impractical and one sided. It conflicts with Halcyon theory.
- Also, the discrimination of lifestyles results in an elietist attitude. it does not improve life, but depreciates human dignity.
- Values of Goodness can be seen in a life of feelings and practicality.
- This consequents in a postulation that perhaps the 'truth' of life is not achieved not only via intellectual thought, but also in feelings and circumstance.
- The living Best Postulate acknowledges that there is an objective true lifestyle, that lies within the cotian theory of sensory socialization, the halcyon theory of good values, the eternity of transition theory, as well as the enlightenment theory of reason and judgement.
The Moderation Doctrine (Project RN(T))
- The Moderation Doctrine is a finding, founded directly under the Living Best Postulate and Western Philosophy, that the 'best' lifestyle is indeed a lifestyle of integration of contrasting domains.
- The Moderation Doctrine raises four domains: Epistemic (Thought), Ontological (Intuitive Feeling), Real (Material), and Ideal (Eternal) of life. In its early stages, Only Thought and Feeling were postulated, reminscent of Enlightenment Theory.
- The doctrine acknowledges the validity of feeling and materialism. It advocates balance between Thought and Feeling, and proposes that every deed has both an idealistic, and realistic aespect.
- This moderation of domains would thus create an objective balanced identity for the individual.
Identity Theory (Project RN(T))
- Identity theory is a theory created in conjunction with the moderation doctrine as part of a Campaign RN(T). While the Moderation Doctrine focuses on the intrapersonal thoughts and feelings, identity theory focuses on the individual as a whole and as a community.
- Identity Theory draws inspiration from Psychology and Sociology. It states that there is an objective balance between personal identity and social identity.
- While personal identity and genes lead to the defining of the individual personality, associative love in general unites the differences and un-discriminates the individual.
- Identity theory focuses on the bottom-up approach of the value of Love. It unites love with socialization and personalization.
Truth Theory (Project RN(T))
- Truth Theory proposes that all Truth is Objective and Subjective. And while they may differ sometimes, one does not hold true presidence over the other.
- Every proposition holds an element of Truth. Knowledge is the human's subjective correspondence of the Truth. Also, it reconciles the aims of Science and Religion.
- Since every proposition has an element of Truth, thus there should be an objective address on the Living Best between Enlightenment Theory, The Living Best, the Moderation Doctrine, and Identity Theory. In Project RN(T), an address of Truth was given- with philosophical backing, to creditate the findings of the above theories.
Goodness Theory (Project RN(T2))
- Goodness Theory was a hypothesis made to integrate the findings of Truth Theory with conventional religion. It addresses why some propositions are considered good (or bad).
- Goodness Theory holds that Goodness is a form of intent, reason, agenda, outcome of a proposition aimed for true development and perfect harmony.
- Goodness Theory, in Project RN(T2), picks up after the topic of Love in Identity Theory. Justifying Ethics and Morality when Truth is deemed 'subjective and holds little crediblity'.
- It also addresses the issue of Authority and Law, with close resemblence (coincidental) to the teachings of Jesus. Authority is conferred, not achieved. And Love is meant to refine the true agenda of the Law, not to restrict, but to goodness.
- As goodness is the means to the end, in this respect the meaning of creation is considered, and the meaning of life is derived. Complimented by the Living Best, Project RN(T) and Project RN(T2) come hand in hand to give a reasonable theory to life.
Beauty Theory
- Beauty Theory is the third theory, on par with Truth Theory and Goodness Theory, to qualify life.
- Beauty Theory holds that all propositions have an element of aesthetical beauty within. While Truth Theory deals with the mechanism-operation of all propositions, and Goodness to the means and ends of a proposition, beauty theory describes the state of being of any proposition.
- Beauty Theory explains the true meaning of beauty. It also justifies the Arts as a faculty on par with Philosophy (including of science) and Ethics.
- Beauty lies in harmony and proportionality. An idealistic perfection, Beauty Theory also justifies the importance of Balance and Moderation- Not as a state for the achievement (for the living best); but rather as a lifestyle of grace.
Transcendental Theory (14th September 2009)
- Transcendental Theory is the final theory developed insofar. It draws reference from Theology, Philosophy, General Knowledge, and personal deduction. It aims to explain proposition (i.e. EVERYTHING) in entire-ity.
- Transcendental Theory holds that the 3 primary transcendentals: Truth, Goodness and Beauty comes from a united source. These three are mutually inclusive, yet distinct from one another.
- Every proposition has an element of truth, of goodness, and of beauty within. Each transcendental describes a particular aespect: the descriptive makings, the intent/destination, and the state of its being.
- Still in its stages of infancy, Project T aims to round up all the current theories, projects and mindsets; and to fully describe it as one clear, cohesive, and united address.
Special Awareness (2001)
- Awareness to the difference between one (me) and the others via difference in lifestyles, intentions and thinking.
- The explanation of "Because you are special" was adopted.

GHKJH
It is to note that from GHKJH the three primary transcendentals are derived:
the mechanism of how GHKJH operates/be is the way of Truth.
the intention/reason/purpose of GHKJH is Goodness. GHKJH in essence is good.
the aesthetic standards of GHKJH lies in the beauty of it's derivatives.
These three transcendentals explain a particular aespect of GHKJH; namely its working mechanism, its reason and purpose, and it's state of being. Because they describe an aespect each, therefore we can induce that this subject is a singluar entity.
But what is GHKJH? English has no available word for it. The closest word we can possibly use is Nature, Creation. But if we were to use the above words as concepts, then the next question would be: what creates (that concept) in Truth, Goodness and Beauty?
That would lead us to the final word; on par with the concept of a unified God. An embodiment of the three transcendentals. And it is from this unified (concept?) we derive the entire theory of knowledge through philosophy (of truth), ethics and love (from goodness), and the arts (beauty).
That word being GHKJH for now.

Transcendentals
Below is a short excerpt I have got about Truth and Goodness, (and Beauty). Evidently, they have been contemplated through the ages by many, are is accepted by Christian Theology: these three entities explain everything, and they are called Transcendentals.
The transcendentals are ontologically one, thus they are convertible. Where there is truth, there is beauty and goodness also.
In Christian theology the transcendentals are treated in relation to Theology Proper, the doctrine of God. The transcendentals, according to Christian doctrine, can be described as the ultimate desires of man. Man ultimately strives for perfection, which takes form through the desire for perfect attainment of the transcendentals.
Each transcends the limitations of place and time, and are rooted in being. The transcendentals are not contingent upon cultural diversity, religious doctrine, or personal ideologies, but rather serve as the objective characteristics of the nature of man.
