Thought about this last night.
Popped right into my head…
Never mind all of the stuff that’s already in my head; there’s always room for more crazy.
There’s always room for more crazy; like Jell-o or ice cream.
I love Jell-o. Crazy, not so much.
At least I call it crazy.
It could be normal, or crazy.
Isn’t the human mind amazing with all the stuff it can do?
All of the information it can process or forget?
All of the useful things….or Facebook…..Snapchat….Twitter…..
Sometimes I sit there going “C’mon THINK!”
Most times I’m like “I wish my freaking brain would just stop!”
Ok, I’m getting off track from my original thoughts that are the basis for todays blog.
Here’s what popped into my brain @ 0215….
I will die not knowing everything.
If I sat here, or if you sat where you’re at, run a diagnostic on your brains hard drive and create a pie chart of how your brain utilizes or categorizes info.
It is sadly amazing how much I don’t know.
Hmmm….I actually have no idea how much I don’t know.
Although, it seems like the older I get the more “Eureka” moments I have concerning trivial stuff.
“Why have I just figured this out?”
I’m an idiot, I swear.
Like these little “life hacks” or “kitchen hacks” I see on Facebook that leave me slack jawed in utter amazement, wallowing in self loathing, awash in shame.
How do people figure this crap out!?
I know nothing about rocket science.
I know nothing about why I’m scared of the dark.
I know nothing except what I have heard, seen, tasted, felt, smelled or been told by others.
Problem is, the senses…..I can pretty much count on being truthful
“Fire HOT!”
“Woman crazy!”
The basic knowledges…..
Learning stuff from people, I’d say less than 50% accurate.
If they taught me things that doesn’t include their opinions or bias’, the percentage would go up exponentially, I believe.
We know enough to get thru life. Simple Simon….
Here’s a thought; We get old enough to make babies, then get older to teach babies until they get old enough to make their own babies. That’s it.
At a certain point, what purpose do we serve?
As we get older, our bodies and minds start to wind down; this we know.
OMG, I’m never gonna know everything, am I?
How cruel it is to create something, give it a brain that is capable of magic and put a limit on what it can do or learn?
There has to be a reason….
There has to be some kind of reason that we can’t know everything.
I wonder what the world was like when there was no highways, cities, power lines, cars, planes….stuff like that?
All we were concerned about was survival. that’s all we HAD to know.
Hunter, gatherers.
From my viewpoint, it was probably terrifying back then.
But, if we think about it; it may have been much much more quiet in our heads.
I mean, what do you think is in your head right now that has to do with your actual survival compared to back then?
Now, how much isn’t there?
Next time you’re standing in a Walmart or a grocery store, think about digging up a root for dinner or making a cloth out of an animals skin.
Think about discovering how to make fire; on purpose.
Think about discovering how to make a bow & arrow, just the fact that WHY you NEED a bow & arrow in the first place.
What in our brains, is necessary?
If we had the ability to clean the junk files or cookies from our brains, how much disk space would we get back and how much faster could we process info?
I know people have drawn these comparisons before but, it popped into my head this morning and I felt like blogging it out loud.
I’m sad that I won’t know everything before I die.
At least I know that much….
But, I know more today than I did yesterday.
But…..how much info am I losing compared to my gains?
Crap…
I’m gonna stop talking now.
I’m a crazy person. Ignore me.
