kinda expanding on yesterday's message, but then again, not really...is it really so bad to be simple-minded? ignorance is bliss, right? not simple-minded, but oblivious maybe? not sure what word i'm looking for here, but point is...i've never thought of myself as a deep person, though i know that i can be if someone makes me be. if you ask me about it, i'll think about it and give you a relatively deep, profound, and insightful answer (at least i think it is and hope you do too) because i know what i believe about all these philosophical, deep questions, but i don't ever bother with them unless someone else brings it up. then i'll be more than happy to put my two cents in, or is it ten? i'll probably put ten :)

i think overthinking things ruins things. if you don't have to worry about something, then DON'T! why cause yourself that extra stress? but sometimes this makes me feel like i'm being looked down upon, like i'm stupid or a ditz, which admittedly and unfortunately, i often do portray. but basically, i come off as a non-thinker. a non-deep person. very superficial. shallow? like i have nothing of significance to say or contribute because there's nothing underneath the surface. but the reality of it is that i like to be happy or "la-dee-da" if you will. if i don't have to think about it, i won't.

i like to use that catcher in the rye kid as an example. what was his name? holden something field. i wanna say cauliflower, but i know that's not right. holden caulfield? that sounds familiar. anyway...that kid. he overthought EVERYTHING and ultimately made his own life miserable, at least in my opinion. the kid was never happy. dude, just take it for what it is. sure, sometimes you'll get disppointed or hurt or whatever (i don't remember the book very well), but i think that the worrying over everything all the time outweighs the actual bad that does occasionally occur. i guess that's also given my belief in the general goodness of human kind. someone trying to screw you over happens a lot less than all the stress you put into worrying about how not to get screwed over, and who knows if your efforts'll work anyway?

i may not be making any sense at all, because honestly...i can't remember lickity split from that book except the fact that i remember thinking that the cauliflower kid should just chill. enjoy life a little...

i've decided that i dont' like writing that is all poetic or abstract or artsy fartsy. mostly because i dont' understand it 99.9% of the time. but seriously...though i gotta admit that some of it truly is really pretty and artful and insightful and whatever else the author meant it to be (sorry, i'm taking all the beauty out of it), but most of it, i feel like they're just trying to hard. i guess it's the engineer in me. just get to the damn point! dont' get me wrong, i enjoy art and creativity and blah blah blah, i actually really hate math and science and all that (some great engineer, huh?) and i supposedly (according to all those silly tests) the creative side of my brain is dominant, and while i do appreciate the beauty of it, it's just a little fake and a little overkill sometimes...
