Riddle Me Silly!

Long weekends have a tendency to make sure that we are well and truly bored. Thankfully, I’ve had my share of traveling this month, and am back home. Phew, I’m so tired! There were three riddles I came across while doing some mindless browsing. In case you have nothing better to do on a long weekend, then you might as well try to solve these. Trust me, they’re not your run-of-the-mill riddles. These are known to be unsolvable.

1.

I am all and I am nothing
I am light and I am dark
Man and Woman
Sun and Moon
Mortal and not so
Young and Old
Time has no effect on me, yet it has more effect then meets the eye
I am everywhere and no where
Angel and Demon
Destroyer and Savior
One cant be one without the other
Yin and Yan
All elements and not a single one…

Can you guess what I am?

2.

Although broken, it shall always exist and surround us,
Don’t like to be confined in them and they shall outlive us all.

What are “they”?

If you hit upon the answers, then please let me know! πŸ™‚

PS: Thanks for all the concerned comments for my previous post.Β  I was stuck in a terrible situation, but finally managed to survive thanks to the concept of centralized banking! πŸ˜€

  1. hmmm.. it will take some time..

    where did you find these? hope you just didn’t make these up to keep us busy this weekend.. do you have the answers or i am not putting my mind into it..!

  2. “Although broken, it shall always exist and surround us,
    Don’t like to be confined in them and they shall outlive us all” –> Sounds like a mad physicist talking about those molecule and atoms…Mindless browsing indeed!

  5. wrt 2nd riddle: okay, for once, there’s an IT then there’s a THEY and THEM… i believe its just a phrase looking like a real riddle, but isnt actually one… like: What was Rekha’s name in Sholay? πŸ˜‰

  6. 1. Wind/ Air

    2. Heart

    Now if the answers turn out to be something really silly (like, one of those jokes of yours), then, I’m gonna get annoyed. Big time.

    And you reply to everyone’s comments in a single line in a single post. Clever.

  7. 1. This one sounds so similar to ‘sarvay bhi main..sarva bhi main.

    It is Soul or Aatma

    2. This one has many answers. I would go with

    Memories or Sky or Bones or Time.
