I do not have the ambition or the acumen to thoroughly explore the thoughts which inhabit my brain. Examining the ideas of my mind are like watching something beautiful yet incomprehensible. I don't mean to sound arrogant, but I have genius in my mind that I cannot translate.

It doesn't sound arrogant, language often lacks the ability to articulate the complex connections that exist between your desires, thoughts and emotions. That last sentence, for example, didn't really get at exactly what I was trying to say.

Im kinda drunk if that didn't make sense.

It seems to me that you have the acumen in spades.

Awesome musings, friend. You're writing skills shine in moments of intense waves. I know the feeling, but my brain runs out of control and I lose my train of thought too easily. ADD sucks.

I was diagnosed with ADD when I was younger, but I don't really beilve it is a "disorder" anymore. Both ADD and Dyslexia to me just seem like a trait that causes a different pattern of thinking, each with its own advantages and disadvantages.

I think I could get diagnosed with ADD but I don't think I have ADD, if that makes any sense. Man, I am a lazy fuck. That is what I am. Attention Deficit Lazy.

Do you want greatness? Do you want your name to be immortal? Do you want to be an "Achilles" or an "Alexander"?

I desperately want this. Every day I feel an agitated lethargy. I do not have the talent nor the vision to create or conquer, but I crave the end result of such pursuits. I want to be remembered and feared. I realize that probably sounds somewhat ridiculous.

I have been exposed to stories of incredible men who have accomplished incredible things, yet I find myself a normal person with no special talents and I live in a comfortable time. There is no great struggle for us. We are merely consumers who seek comfort. What would it be like to face true struggle? To face death? To conquer?

Supposedly, God frowns upon such prideful desires; as if we should obseqiuously bow before His expectations. How can He expect complete devotion from us if He leaves us in such a world and with such natural desires?

I believe that when I stand before God I will completely understand His will. I will bask in his omnipotence and I will beg for His mercy and grace. I will turn into a sniveling and apologetic coward before the Creator. My natural human desires will all have been for naught.

The only hope I have is that either His love is so incredible that I forget all other things or that my consciousness is extinguished so that I will no longer be bothered by my fate.

I wish I could quote that entire post and use it as a sig. I have exactly that same sentiment.

Any time I saw some show on "discover" or whatever channel involving some dangerous tribal initiation ritual I would feel like I was watching real life instead of living it.

I think it is just human nature not to cause strife when comfort is avalible. Its a hard impulse to fight.

It's beautiful that you bumped this now of all times, blissed. I'm there. I'm at the plate and I'm in the groove. And if you ask me the secret I'll tell you I'm just doing what feels right, following my heart, not overthinking. I'm writing all the time, and it's okay that I can't shit gold on command. Thanks so much for bumping this. To think I used to sit around saying this stuff to myself and then doing nothing about it. Well I'm doing something about it these days. And it's a beautiful feeling.

I like to reread this thread from time to time just to reflect on my life and what I'm doing to make it better. There are a few threads that I have saved for this very reason.
