Insanity

They say the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again expecting a different result. Well, I’d say that most of us are probably insane … break out the meds and padded walls. Constantly in life, I get to a point where I feel like I have it all figured out, only to realize in a short amount of time that I know absolutely nothing. Nothing. I get so comfortable with a thought, a feeling, a way of life and then something comes along and flips everything I thought I knew UPSIDE DOWN. How many times can I forget that I can’t rely on my own understanding! Your own sight is not to be trusted; things are never quite what they seem. So why on God’s green Earth can’t I just stop trying to figure things out? Even the simple things in life can turn out differently every time. For instance, my hair, one night I may do something to my hair and it comes out one way, the next night, I try to do the same exact thing and get a completely different result! I mean besides the fact that natural hair does what it wants, I think that is telling me something. I have to stop expecting that one thing simply leads to another. That is not the case in life. I would like to be able to turn my brain off! I think that is the only way I will stop trying to figure out how things work. Sometimes you just have to be able to go with the flow of life and there are just plenty of things that WON’T MAKE SENSE! Sometimes that is the hardest thing for intellectuals to accept. But get on board people, it is true! I am breaking the cycle of my insanity. I am on a path to stop trying to understand things because every time I do, the same result of the unexpected is lurking.
