While drunken men find flaws in science.

Do you ever get to a point where thinking becomes something that you'd just rather stay away from completely? It's not that anything particularly bad has happened, it's simply that life's tangled web has become a bit too complicated to follow, and the mind requires a break.

In all reality, I have nothing to complain about. It's just that I can't get my mind around how quickly everything is shifting and changing, and time just won't allow for pauses. With all the planning that we do for the future, we end up completely ignoring the present. Then, we look back and wonder where the time went, when we could have done something about it if we'd only paid attention. It's such a horrible trick that life plays on us; the fact that focusing on building a life is exactly what makes us miss the joy of living it.

I know I'm reading way too far into things for the situation I'm in, but I needed to vent, I guess. I'm just so frustrated with trying to plan out where my life is going, when I'd rather just hop into a car and figure it out on the way.

Unfortunately, America has shaped our lives into what it believes it should be. And - for now, anyways - that's just something I've got to deal with.

There are so many complications and details that tie into that statement, but I'm not going to get into those right now. Just food for thought.

peace&love.
