Is it worth it?
This weekend was pretty nice. Life lately has just been moving in a fairly steady flow. Nothing particularly catastrophically eventful. I could probably tell myself to think about a lot more of things that goes on in life, but I tell myself not to. Why? Basically because I want to keep my life simple. I won't lie though, I have a good deal of things that puts stress on me. I don't think about them though.
We make decisions. We weigh the pros and cons against each other. We've been learning this in Economics in class. But I think about how it applies to my life and not so much as to the economy. To simply put it, I used to have a simple life. I don't know if I can still say that. Maybe I can, but I just think about it too much (this goes along with the aforementioned thinking about things). Then again, sometimes having a not-so-simple life is worth it.
And finally having read through what I wrote, I do not think I am clearly stating the main idea. I think my ideas are scattered everywhere. To state it blatantly; we think too much. Life isn't so complicated. You get to choose how you live. On another note, maybe because I just think differently than everyone else. Maybe instead of running away (I guess that's what you could call it) from things, I should deal with them. But why bother? I don't think it's worth it.
"Happiness is like a butterfly, which when pursued is just beyond your grasp, but which, if you sit down quietly it may alight upon you."
