Everytime I look at myself I just can't get over how silly I am.
I try not to take myself too seriously. Thats not to say that I don't hope to do great things, but the ego can be so pushy. I'm really an odd blend of both the silly and the serious. I like music, and I enjoy movies (especially movies that make me think). Intellect is a double-edged sword; as is humor, and empathy, and lots of other things. In fact, its amazing that anyone survives, because the world seems full of double edged swords lying around all over the place (but that doesn't mean I'll give them up, even if they can hurt me). I try to listen. Listening is great. So is thought before speech, but sometimes I think too much. Conversation, especially deep conversation, is a real treat (it is hard to come by though). Cultures (and by culture I mean people) are fascinating. In fact, when you get down to it, we really are all quite silly (or ridiculous, in my case).
Sometimes I forget things that I wish I hadn't. Sometimes I remember things that I wish I'd forget. Sometimes I just get stuck. But there is hope. Yes, there is hope.
