It's absolutely phenomenal how much mental energy I can devote to overthinking the simplest things. I meet some girl and suddenly I must analyze every minutiae and divine what they all together mean -- as if gestures are tea leaves and glances are constellations that can predict the future if I just think hard enough. How absurd. Especially considering how poor human observation skills and memory are and that most of what I see in my mind is distorted and unrecoverable.
It's pointless, and so I won't do it. Such ruminations are a barren tree that will not -- and cannot -- bear any fruit. Mental ghosts that taunt and tease but have no substance. Only time and patience will creep through reality and reveal the future, one second at a time.
good morning micheal
I woke up very early this morning too
It's about 4am but I jsut couldn't go back to sleep from futile overthinking...
Imagination is great when somewhat directed ..
somtime it just directs you ..
I wonder if we need to know anyone in this world or to simply to get to know ourself would suffice..
I use to enjoy debates and discussions yet at times I see no gain , the only gain I get at times is to listen a person..that I think is the best contribution one can do to another..
anyways.. I guess you,re doing that right now reading my post :P
searching for purpose in life..
