The World's a sand-glass, Darling. Your life is just a loan; words from a recent song that were echoing off of the walls of my mind (as if my mind had walls). Sometimes it is just words and sometimes it is words with meaning. I try not to engage words unless they mean something. It's one of the reasons I don't talk on the phone. I spend a lot of time watching what goes on in my mind; what tries to get in... what goes out. It's all extremely important somehow. I suspect it is more important than I think it is and I try to treat it that way, anyway, cause... you... never... know.
We engage in certain acts all day long. Certainly... we breathe without much pausing between breaths. We think and feel. At regular intervals and sometimes at random... we eat and drink, and... some of us pay more attention to these activities than others. The less attention you pay to what is going on inside and outside of you... the more at risk you are. Paying attention is... should be... Job One, BUT... there are all those distractions! More distractions all the time than there were before; more tomorrow than there are today.
You've heard of poor impulse control. This is the perfect world for it these days. The Mind imagines and The Mind fantasizes. Because of all the distractions... people get more and more detached from themselves, and... more and more involved in what they are dreaming about or... in active pursuit of.
