I don’t particularly find myself procrastinating on purpose,
mind you. I think it’s more on an
unconscious level to put off the unknown.
I see this blog as a temporary experiment and I am unsure of the
outcome. I don’t really like putting my
feet forward into what I consider to be quicksand, much like how I see this
blog, as we all know; the harder you struggle in quicksand, the faster you
sink. I’m not fond of failures but I
suppose this leads me back into the precipice you can’t succeed if you don’t
try. After all, isn’t success a failed
failure?
It appears my ordinary life has taken to a change in
direction; whether this is permanent or only temporary, I am unsure of at this
juncture. I have started in a new-ish
direction and find myself meandering slowly down it, rather than running full
sprint at it. The proverbial dragging of
one’s feet is done in more ways than one; ironic, isn’t it? It’s not necessarily procrastination, just a
put off of the inevitable. The problem
with things, not just the inevitable; is that they have a funny way of catching
up to you when you least expect it, when you least want it and in ways you
never even considered.
Life has a funny way of attaching its own ball and chain,
although; in some cases, it might as well be a choker collar and a retracting
leash. I think life finds it amusing to
let us run so far towards something we want, only to press a button to find us
yanked backwards, and potentially, slam our asses to the ground while we lay
there gasping for breath. I can’t help
but think that the amusement is endless because we are the definition of
insanity; doing the same repetitious action and expecting different results. However, I am not entirely sure if that is
the definition of insanity or stupidity.
Which puts me at odds with myself, I don’t think humans by
nature are stupid; except for those not-so-rare occasions where I’m proven
wrong. In those incidents, I am forced
into two situations I’m not a fan of. I do
find both very effective at handling the circumstance perfectly. In one scenario, I simply nod at the
offending person and back away, very slowly. I would like to add that this also works
beautifully for crazy people, although having a cookie in your arsenal is to
your added benefit. The other method is
slightly trickier and harder to pull off as it requires lightning fast reflexes
and some experience with parkour; but hey, if you’re into that sort of thing,
more power to you.
I leave you with these haphazard meanderings and self muses. Enjoy!
