Bonus Philosophy · 2:32am Feb 27th, 2013
Dang it. I know It's Tuesday in all, but this has been on my mind a LOT. Here's a bonus Philosophy thing for yalls.
Remember last week how I compared life to a book? Gonna continue that here.
Like I said, everyone has their own beginning in life. In a book, that's the "Introduction". As your life goes on, you learn more about the world, the people around you, and even what your morals should be once you get older. This is called "Rising action". At the peak of the rising action, there is a climax. This entails that you achieve your goal in life, however long that takes, but...not always.
Sometimes, or most of the time in today's world, that "Climax" turns out to be a "Tragedy" that effects you deep down inside. Makes you find out something that you might not want to know about. That "Tragedy" might even change how you see the world.
Another occurrence that happens from an ordeal like this is more settle though. The way you act around people. It could be loud and obvious, like yelling more or openly accusing someone of something they didn't do. Or it could be something more settle, like being more shy than usual.
What does this have to do with anything? Sure people can act differently after a particularly haring ordeal, but that's true with most everyone. For me though, it started when I was still in elementary school....
I guess I'll tell you about THAT on Friday.
In any case, my own "Tragedy" must have affected me more than I thought. Simply put, when it began, I became more or less a loner. I avoided everyone, instead choosing to be alone. If my friends didn't help me when they did, I would be even more of a recluse than I am today.
Even so, recently, I've been thinking about that time, and you know what I've realized? It had a lingering effect on me that I only recently found out. Today....I PREFER to be alone, even though I have a lot of friends. My excuse? I want to "Think".
Truthfully, I LOVE to fantasize. It's where most of my inspiration for my stories comes from. But perhaps it's more than that? Perhaps I just so used to being alone THEN, that I like to "Think" alone today?
Perhaps....or perhaps not. The very idea is causing my head to hurt, and NOT in a good way.
Dream a Better Dream my Friends, and Think Freely
Oh yeah, and I'm also sending "Upon that day..." to EqD again. Just to try.
