As I read this article is answering about this question.

How is the feeling when you suddenly realize you don't understand anything anymore?

It's the feeling of being lost in a sea of questions that "what's the point?"

However, I think this story doesn’t directly answer to this question because there is no clear explanation but there are statements that make us feel to be lost in the big questions of life and face that the might not make sense and we have to come back and continue the way we live everyday. In addition, this story spoke about something we all experienced. For example, many times we ask ourselves that “ What am I doing here? What's the point of it all?"

Therefore, in this story write was trying to inform us that we're all searching for meaning, and the journey itself is part of the adventure and lifestyle.

Here are some evidences about the story.

1. The list of everyday objects: "traffic lights, cars, posters, uniforms, monuments." This is important because it makes the story feel more relatable, because we all see these things every day.

2. The "flash" of understanding:”

3. The word of "nothing": The narrator says "nothing, nothing about anything." This repetition emphasizes his confusion.

These elements all work together to create a powerful story about the search for meaning of the world.

This story was one of the most interesting stories I have ever read. It really talked about realities about our feelings regarding the world and life. This story was not about just the writer’s feelings but also it was about all human. In addition , I want to share my experiences that is somehow similar to the story. I was always thinking about everything in my life from God to the smallest things in the world like everything that is happening around me , everyone who are in my life, even things that happens for me , my future, my goals, my dreams and many more staffs in my life. But finally, after some minutes I face the same thing that the writer faced. If I ask someone absolutely no one won’t let me know about it because no one can understand what I feel . It is completely common, we can’t understand each other in this case. Finally, I want to just say that like this story sometimes we need to think about universe and search about the realities. Life itself is about the journey of questioning and seeking for meaning.

This part of text is more important in this passage .

> "I stopped, blinked: suddenly I understood nothing. Nothing, nothing about anything: I did not understand the reasons for things or for people, it was all senseless, absurd. I laughed."

This is where the story started and the writer explained the main points of the story. According to the story, this sentence explained what this story is about. In addition, this text explains that how the story started and writer saw the world as just a bunch of random things, without any real meaning behind it. In addition, this part is the main point of the story. It's the moment he started his journey of trying to figure out what life is all about and what is the meaning of life. It's like he was scared, but also curious about what he might find.

If I explain my thoughts about this story, I would like to say that this short story has been very interesting for me. Because, the same thing happened for me many times., I have consistently experienced this even in my life when I look at the world so deeply. Let’s imagine this as if you're just walking down the street, and thinking of your goals and future. Suddenly, everything just feels pointless like you realize that traffic lights, cars, the goals we set, the dreams we have , the people we love , even those weird people around us , they're all just random things or meaningless things , no real meaning behind them. That's what happens to me and maybe many people in the world like this story. Therefore, what I learned and think about this story is that, nothing in the world is meaningless. Moreover, I think that this story inspired me to pursue the thoughts and questions that I have about the world. This story shows that how much power of our perspectives can be effective in our lives. For example, as the writer mentioned the way we think even lonely it will make a meaningful impact in our minds. In addition, I understood that as much we search that much we will know and understand the life’s reasons.

This part of the text was interesting for me to think about it.

> "Everything is in its place. All is as it should be. Everything is a result of something else. Everything fits in with everything else. We cannot see anything wrong or absurd."

Believing :

Firstly, I want to express my agreement about this part of the text.

I think this statement reminds us that everything happens in the world for a reason , and there is a big plan for everything that happens and everything has a purpose. Although, the story was talking about meaningless of the world but this statement explains that we feel less scary and less random. Moreover, I believe that according to the story there is a reason behind everything in the world and anything we do and we feel undoubtedly will have a reason behind it. I liked the way that writer felt meaninglessness himself about staff around him and learned that sometimes we need to think out of our perspectives.

Doubting:

Secondly, here is what I disagree with this statement. If the writer experienced an d realized that the world is just a bunch of random things happening, and we're just trying to make it make sense. So, where is a reasonable response for this statement that “Everything is in its place .” Maybe the first claim is real and the world is really meaningless. Moreover, the writer didn’t tell us what to believe , it just made us think about it and decide about it.

I would prefer to focus on this line: "I stopped, blinked: suddenly I understood nothing."

This sentence had a huge impact on me. It gave me the feeling of the moment when I myself experienced it many times, when everything I thought, felt meaningless for me. It is a moment of disorientation when we have many questions with no answers. This sentence explain that how much the world have mysteries and our sense of blink can make us think of the real meaning of life.

So basically, this story is about the sudden feeling of meaningless. In this story the writer was trying to everyone about this big realization, but people made him feel he is going crazy.

Therefore, what I learned from this story was to never forget that we all feel this sudden feeling about the life and the world. But we have to make sure to not judge others and make them feel crazy. Moreover, this story reminds me that everything in the world have a reason anything that happens exactly it has a purpose.

So this story really made me think about my feelings in a deeply way.

I am sure we all ask this question “ What if”? the time we just think with ourselves that what if I wasn’t there, what if I had a beautiful car maybe a big house or many things. Therefore, this story made me think about it again. Moreover, this story reminds me of feeling of being misunderstood. It has happened for all of us the time when I've tried to explain something to someone, and they just don't get it. In addition, this story made me think about all the different ways people find meaning in their lives. Totally, this story is about emotions and experiences of all human.
