Life is simple, yet complicated. If you think about anything logically, taking into consideration only those factors which would make sense in an ideal world, deciding upon a course of action isn't that difficult. But the world is not ideal, and lets not start on that topic. Even if you do manage to think logically, thinking is not doing. The human condition comes in the way.
noteToSelf = "I wish I could just turn off the human condition and follow logic. I have a hunch it would lead to great things";
postScript = "I've been oscillating between unbearable dejection, apathy, escapism, white hot rage and rare (aforementioned) moments of lucidity these past few days. Again, I wish I could just turn humanity off and actually do what makes sense. Alas.";
