with time

ive come to realize that thinking sucks. i dont mean being logical and assessing situations to solve issues in the most efficient manner, i mean just thinking. like, for the purpose of thinking, it's not worth the trouble of thinking about every single bad thing in the whole universe

i've kind of trained myself to stop doing that, and im getting there. when anything happens that makes me nervous that i'd normally feel nervous about, i stop trying to rationalize, fight, and make my feelings go away, and just kind of let my body feel them. they don't weigh into how i act, i act based upon logical processes, not how i am emotionally compelled.

if im on the schedule to go to work, i dont think about how much id rather be doing other things, but i dont try to keep myself from feeling upset that im going to work. i still feel the inner turmoil, but i dont think about it, i just act according to the circumstances that im in. if i get upset that i'm not an amazing professional guitarist, i stop thinking about that and just practice more. if i see a cute girl, i just talk to her, i dont over think it. i come up with something to say and it either works or it doesn't.

it's funny because a year ago, if someone would have told me to feel like this, i would have objected desperately because i actually really like being in free thought. But, free thought isn't what's bad - using free thought to justify a lack of action is whats bad

[Howard Roark]

I used to write about every single problem and thought and feeling I had, trying to figure them out and decipher them and solve for patterns so I could prevent unecessary future suffering

eventually I realized I was simply dwelling on these issues rather than letting the thoughts pass naturally



tears are meant to be cried, thoughts are meant to be thought -- holding them in or trying to contain them is unnatural and doesn't solve anything

[Shiroikage]

Pretty much, yeah.

[Zalius]

being able to feel without understanding it is a beautiful thing. it isnt so containment or confinement, but no longer associating feelings with thoughts, because theyre two totally separate worlds

not that I win, but:
