Metaphysics, Pathetic Fallacy, Paradox

Pathetic Fallacy : When the moods and emotions are being showed by the weather and the way the day goes. e.g In Romeo & Juliet, Romeo was crying and then it started to rain, thunder came and the weather was horrible.

Metaphysics : Things that are beyond this universe, that cannot be observed and meausred. An example of this is Love, End of time and God. These cannot be proven but we still believe in them
