new outlook on life.
    #5581986 - 05/02/06 04:19 PM (17 years, 8 months ago)

the other day while i was going about normal day to day stuff completly sober and somewhat sapped from the night before i decide to take a shower. i get in to the shower and see a toothbrush where the soap usually is. I instantly thought "why is that toothbrush sitting there?". but then i thought in a form of drained enlightenment "why wouldent it be sitting there"

this thought provoked a cascade of mental clarity, causing questions to arise in the form not of why things are the way they are but why would they be any other way. this literaly made me sit down, i skipped the shower and layed on the couch pondering not the typical why are we here, but the "Why wouldent we be here"

this outlook has changed the way i look at everything no longer looking for flaws to perfect but to understand the endless complexities in a "simpler"(i use that term loosly) sense, of course not losing any deep meaning in the process.

this new philosophy of mine has helped me deal with problems which have plagued me for quite some time, seeing trials not as trials but as oppurtunities to better my self.

needless to say that toothbrush still adorns the soap holder that it somehow it found its way to.
