Perhaps the greatest thing to me is belting out my favorite lyrics while my favorite songs are playing, not worrying about what others think. Expressing myself through my voice (which isn't that great). It's very relaxing and cathartic. It's a time to escape our shitty meaningless world and feel like everything is just okay.
How do you get up and keep going, after you get knocked down, again and again? After the harsh blows land, again and again? After you're stripped of your free will by the actions of others, again and again? I'm thankful for my good fortune...
Sometimes people show slight traces of insight or even base intelligence amidst a sea of trivial dreck.
Today I realized that all thoughts are logical. We seem to pass off bizarre or unusual thoughts as mere "feelings," things not expressable rationally. It's not that they're from some nebulous area of the soul that is inexpressible in the defined bounds of our language; they're merely unexplainable as of yet. Psychology isn't flawless. Analyzing yourself is pretty hard if not impossible, so it is foolish to think that we know all there is to know about the human psyche (which is composed merely of electrical synapses (or so we think)). I'm a huge offender, here; I'll often say my actions are inexplicable logically and so it is as if I have impunity to hypocrisy. I do not.
IRC trivia is a terrible scourge that must be fed. There is no stopping it! I totally own them at it, too. It's not like it's pointless; pointless is relative.
I'd like to think life is much better when you have virtually no expectations for anything, but that would imply that life could get any worse. (It can; I'm just an emo punk bitch. Also, life sucks.)
From now on, I'm just going to sit back and let things fall into place where they may. If someone has a problem with me or something to say, they'll tell me first.
Nietzsche's ability to become such a prominent figure in the relativistic and cloudy world of philosophy in less than a century gives me hope. For something.
I wrote an angry rant and copied the text because Blogger wasn't posting. Reading back on it now, I realize that it never really applied and that I was speaking out of baseless anger.
