Crazy....

Crazy things keep happening...Or Not happening somehow... That's probably because this is a crazy world. Maybe the next world will be less crazy. Maybe it will be crazier still. Maybe we are all so crazy that we wouldn't recognise true sanity - even if it were to stare us in the face. There is no way that I can know whether what I are doing now is wise or ridiculous. It depends at what level you view it from really. upside down it looks dudgy....left to right it looks...ummm...although I am open to the possibility that I may be making a mistake... but somehow I have a feeling I am probably doing the right thing!

How will you ever know whether the choices you made were good or bad? oh I know....that's easy... Just think only the most superficial of thoughts! Never question anything. Always believe whatever seems most obvious. Then, you won't have to think so much and you will be able to save yourself from the potential embarrassment of seeing the past from a very different perspective. There is, though, one great reward for being so bold. It's the delight of fresh understanding........

Sometimes, it is better not to know what's in store. This is not necessarily because we need to be protected from bad news. Think, for example, about acquired tastes - foods we don't like when we first see them on our plate. After a while, they become our favourite delicacies. But till that change occurs, we see them as vile and inedible. It's the same with other forms of prejudice or fear. It's no use telling anyone that one day, they will feel differently. Till that change occurs, they feel what they feel.

Pride is a funny thing. Often, it stands between us and the thing we want most in the world. It fools us. It persuades us that what we want, even more than our heart's desire, is our dignity! Oh yes, dignity. What a terribly important thing that is. Without it, we cannot eat or love or be creative - or be successful. Er... or can we? Dignity has no such value. It affords no rewards. Still, though, we let it colour our judgement. I wonder if somewhere in my world, false pride is preventing me from reaching true happiness.
