15 June 2002 (Saturday): technicolor has inspired me to brevity

Maybe I'm not supposed to solve the puzzle at all. Maybe I'm just supposed to live within it.

"I beg you... to have patience with everything unresolved
in your heart and try to love the questions themselves as
if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign
language. don't search for the answers, which could not
be given you now, because you would not be able to live them
and the point is, to love everything. live the questions
now. perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will
gradually, without ever noticing it, live your way into the
answer..."

Hmm... Enj, sounds very Matrix-ische :)

I know what you mean though. My brain is such an over-achiever, it doesn't want to "waste" idle time simply relaxing. So, what better thing to do than overanalyze everything!

Hmm... where is that cranial on/off switch again??
