Thoughts I've had, poems I've written and anything else I think might be interesting.
how i do things
I don't really know how to do this. That's my real problem. I never really know how to do anything. I doubt anybody else really does either. This comes to mind because everything always seems to work out for me even though I have no idea what's going on. Enter my conclusion that no one has any idea what's going on. If I can make things work, it makes me very cynical about other people. Based on personal experience I bet they don't have any idea either. You really just have to act like you know what's going on. Then people think you know what's going on. Then you tell them what's going on and they believe you and it becomes what's going on. The real key is to not care what's going on. My philosophy relies on a lot of fate. I don't actually believe in fate. I just believe in random chance. And acceptance. One example is traveling. I claim to never be lost. I always know where I'm going. And I always know where I am (I'm here). I always know that I will get where I'm going eventually. Sometimes I just take the circuitous route. You just have to have patience. Recently I was visiting a small college town in Pennsylvania. The girl I was visiting had a study group during the day so I decided to go for a walk. About two hours later she called me on the texty thing to tell me that the study group was over and to ask where I was. My reply: 'Well i think im headed back.' By this time I had absolutely no idea where I was in relation to the college. The key to never being lost is never losing your cool. I just started walking the direction I thought it was and in a half hour I was back on campus. When I first started driving I never knew how to get anywhere, so I would just go by instinct. Whenever I got to an intersection I would pick left, right or straight based on gut feeling. I always got where I was headed, and usually not to late. That's how I write as well, if you hadn't already noticed. I just start my mind going and see where it goes. I've always found it to be an interesting experience.
