Of closed ears and open eyes
Shit…this weekend is a real bore! Okies…so i hv work 2do actuali but i’m just too lazy =P BUT i’ve sumhow finished my esl tutorial presentation so i’m not gona complain too much. Once i’m done wif da footie news i guess i Must get started on my maths n then read d short story for text production.
Had an interesting(if sumwhat disjointed) chat wif a fren over msn lasnite n it got me thinking(again) over d way i’m handlin stuff in my life. How important is it for us to be independent in mind and thought? Meaning, to have ur own opinions, values and beliefs and unwaveringly stand by them regardless of wad other ppl say? At times when v’re stuck in a quagmire and sum1 else lends a helping hand@ advice which is logical & rational yet totally unacceptable to u, which should prevail : independence of thought or good advice?
So..assuming i close my ears and just listen to myself, it stil doesnt address the fact that my eyes are still open, witnessing my inexorable (sori louis, infringe ur copyright for a while) sinking, deeper and deeper…..so wads 2b done then? close my eyes as well i guess…shut myself out of this world n juz listen 2d voice inside me. Possible?
Well..technically, if ur sinking slowly enough, if u close ur eyes then u can’t see, then u hv no perception of space and movement which translates into a loss of ability to sense that u’re actuali sinking.
Hurm..i do realise that a lot of thgs can be solved if i juz unblock my ears to free my hands so that i can grab d hands of friends who’re trying 2pull me out. But then again, heck i’m not a Leo for nothing. There’s just some sort of pride, arrogance even, that demands total independence in saving your skin when ur a Leo.
Okies, i know i’m talking in circles yet again. All the same…..
[Independence of mind and thought] Versus [Good advice] is a battle I’d rather not fight right now. Therefore, i’m gona go do my maths 1st! =p
