Venture
2008/08/01 4:30:41 AM a brief venture into a specified abstract...
It's been interesting.
Nothing ventured nothing gained doesn't really map one to one in an expectations game.
The unaccounted tally of unshed conventions, not personally but from others, seems to be the real roadblock. There's a sense of uncertainty that most are afraid to pierce, perhaps for good reasons, but still fear. yet another judgment.
It rough to realize that you end up being the person you didn't want to be. Somewhere along the way, you have to shed all of the rust until you're left with the core. Or at least a core you had self perpetuated before the distractions, before the bias, before the fear. Can it be that I do not remember beyond the fear? that seems right, but I try to look past it.
It takes something of a better person, ironically a judgment, to put you back in place. That's rather easy if you put yourself down enough, you'll find positive value in everyone. Though, only a few can speak straight to the heart. Few have gone through the same path. And fewer still you would follow. Why is it we hold those few in such high regard? Perhaps to be able to return the favor to another from that opposite perspective, some day, one day.
Perhaps there's something else, and it has yet to be defined (oh how i love the safety of the obscure).
realizing that your perceived value differs greatly from what you end up contributing will humble you. Specifically if what your contributing seems to be misdirected, or at least, misunderstood. The issue then is somewhat of a communications marketing campaign that fails when you don't have reality checks. The harsher the reality checks the better your algorithm for shedding the unnecessary.
seems to become old pretty fast. I think perhaps you have to learn from the greater minds. Why is it that the simple answers don't make me feel like they are simple. Am I just looking for complexity and not happy when i don't find, or rather entropy? Perhaps it's time to narrow the filter of the social experiment and aim for accuracy.
The simple answer echoes in the back of my mind, "maybe you try too hard". Maybe so, but I'd rather have this side of the extreme than it's apathetic twin. I spent a lot of time on behavioral predictions and conclusively realize that it's more based on the presence of effort (and it's driving force) than the comparable "revealed preference".
perhaps, the doors can stay open, perhaps i can unfilter the windows to the outside. Can't see my own reflection, but I can trust the projection that others see. Maybe that's the trick, or as one would have told me: Maybe, there's no trick. It's just really really simple and you're over thinking it.
Perhaps i don't have the prerequisites for this lesson . . .
