Lost in Thought

Someday I wish that one would be able to follow a thought through the neural pathways to see where it gets lost and trace the point of error. Continuously now I find my thoughts become lost in the abyss that is my mind. Assignments that I thought I had done are left unattended, and yet in my innocence of the matter, I have no explanation with which to console my tired gray matter. I have now begun what I thought I would never do, a count down to my last day of high school, upon such a day where I hope that my life and its purpose will become somewhat clearer. I caught a moment of George, from the Hour, earlier this week and he posed this question. "If you were to never tell a lie, would your life be what it is today?". Basically calling into question how real we are to ourselves and to others around us. This week it struck me that I enjoy behaving differently with different people, it is not a betrayal of who I am to do this merely an expansion of my person. As since we as humans are so very complex there is indeed more than one side to each story and to each person.

  1. I love how you pointed out that behaving differently with certain people is just an expansion of who you are, not a betrayal. Very true :)
