It's all about messing up the mind

What's wrong with me? Well, nothing!

What have you got against your very mind? Are you always "at one" with your mind? Are you always co-operating with your mind? Hmm, guys, it's time we take a step back to take a step forward. What are we talking here? Are you messed up?

I'm currently in a state of a messy mind. It's really bad. It's just not working out, man. It's like you try to tell yourself you can do something or it's gonna be alright. But, somehow, we just can't. If we keep controlling the mind, we're messing it up. Yes, you heard this one before, and you probably went through this.

So, what? What the hell is going on then? What am I trying to imply? I don't know.. maybe I'm just going through  an emotional week. Sometimes, things do get out of hand. And we cannot do ANYTHING about it. There is no such thing as balance when you feel out of place. It's like playing football. We go out to the park ready to kick some balls, when suddenly, it rains. And when it rains, it's pouring. So we have no control of the rain. But we're still so upbeat that the rain will go away but, it's not. We pray and pray, but nothing works.

                 It keeps raining..

Well, enough said. Control or no control. It's a messy mind. But when the rain stops, there's sunshine. Wow. Surely, this will all turn out good.

Building the Right Side

You know, you pretty much heard about developing the left side of the brain. But what about the right side? What are we to do with that?

I'm not quite sure about this but I think the left side of the brain is pretty much about academical studies. Basically, we solve algebras using the left side. But I wonder, what about the right side? Is it about the inner part of us which shows artistic talent? Yeah, I reckon so.

But why am I stressing this out? Hmm, I guess I'm been fiddling around with my left side too long. So I've come to realize that the right side of the brain needs to be polished (Yes I know, this sounds ridiculous and obvious) But, how? As always, I was very interested. Please, by all means, tell me.

Is it a matter of being an artistic person? Am I supposed to learn some arts? Maybe, probably, but it sure is relaxing. (I even came up with a crazy conclusion that most of the stress comes from the left side) But I'm not so sure it's that way.

Obsessing about obsession

It's a sad thing in life where you have to obsess about something. But we never do get over it, do we? I'm sure, we've all been addicted to something. It probably feels good to do so. But with obsession, comes desperation.

I've been a little obsessing about certain things. But not of the little things like chocolate or watching a tv show. It's kind of a relationship obsession. I've been seeing relationships between people in a different way. More or else trying to learn a thing or two about why and who. Yes, I know, you have no idea.

But that's a good thing. Because, you see, when you're going through almost the same routine, seeing the same people, you tend to realize about things which matter between you and your pals. You want to build trust. Just like what I'm doing with you right now. I'm trying to build trust with you.

But, what is obsession? It's something insane. It's something when you know you can't get over it in a short period of time. It's about losing control. Letting loose. But is it good? Or bad? Or maybe.. good and bad?

There are times when we feel the need to know the meaning of it all. Why? How? Just like Einstein, some way or another, we'll certainly feel a little "edgy" and excite ourselves over petty things. Like what, you may ask? Well, ask yourself! Everyone has obsessions. What's yours?

It's definite that we'll never get over it. NEVER. We may get over it after some time. But we never do get over it. So, what now? What's the point then? Take a breather. Listen to your heart, and let it guide you.

Thinkering Intellectually

Nope, you probably just swore at people. And that's a good thing. That proves you have heart. You are being emotional, that's great. But wait, what if you decided to look at that situation in a different way?

I mean, why not, say, think it over? Your boss probably said no to your raise, but there must be a suitable reason for it, right? (yeah, right) Yes, I know, it's a long shot you're gonna rationalize with your stubborn colleagues. But, stop. Please, refrain yourself from being overwhelmed by those nasty traits of anger, violence and hatred. There MUST be a reason this is ALL happening.

It's usually tough. But with some tinkering like Ranieri using your brain and not your guts would do you good. (Well, he did bounce back and bring success in Italy)

Obviously, there are times when you gotta rely on your emotions. But just remember, your brain only functions less than 10 % everyday. That's Man's biggest failure. Stupidity might result in money and jobs being lost. You could go into a mid-life crisis if you rely most on your emotions. Sure, bravery really is important in athletes, but chances are, you're just a 9-to-5 worker. So, rationalize, use your intellect.

Equally.

What does that word mean to you? Does it mean to treat people equally? Probably. I'm sure you have someone whom you don't really understand. He's probably getting on your nerves. You don't know what to do about it. I do. I do have people whom I can't really stand.

I've got this friend whose always bugging me. He's not really the sensible type. He's just not really satisfied with me or something. But, I'm not gonna tell, F*** O**. He's my friend. But I soon found out he's just upset over what I did to him some time ago. You see, it's easier to understand people when we relate them to ourselves. I mean, if someone punches you, will you do the same to him? Maybe, you stole his girlfriend or killed his brother.

So, before we start judging people and telling them they're stupid, you gotta understand that sometimes, we can all be like him or her. We can be as foolish as them or as intelligent as them. We are all equal.
