Sometimes something will make no sense, simply because it has no inherent meaning - it simple is . i used to be like that, or naturally am that way - no labeling, not judgemental or judging, etc. but then, that is blank to me, it's like maybe you don't learn anything that way (besides maybe esoteri... |

Do you have a black&white logical straight line thinking mind that depends heavily on concrete and observable evidence or do you have a hyper associational mind that is constantly running from one thing that is somehow connected to the next to the next thing, and somehow connected to the next t... |
