Something Odd I Noticed Recently

I was thinking of things to write about today and I thought to myself: “Let's attempt to keep it positive. You only seem to write about things you hate.”

So I sat there and thought about it for a good ten minutes. There has to be something positive for me to write about, right?”

Do you know what happened? I drew a complete blank. I couldn't think of a single thing that I liked enough to write about. Then out of nowhere it hit me again; I don't really care about anything at all.

To everyone who is reading this, think about it for a minute. Try and name something, either that I own (like a TV for instance), or something I possess (like my ability to talk) and think to yourself how upset I'd be if it were taken away from me forever.

The answer really surprised me.

I really tried to think about all the things people really assume I care about and do you know what; I don't care about them as much as you think that I do.

I've cut cable TV, cell phones, the internet, food, music, and movies from my life for extended periods of time, including some of them currently, and it never bothered me as much as it's bothered other people.

But those are just material things, lets talk bigger picture.

Say I lost the ability to smell tomorrow. Do you really think I would care that much? Well, I have allergies so that's a bad example because I can barely smell now.

What if I woke up tomorrow unable to talk? I'd probably love that. I wouldn't have to talk to anyone ever again. It would be amazing. I say bring that shit on!

Really, think about it. What would possibly bother me? I love nothing.
