I can’t help but think that random thoughts aren’t truly random. I mean, your subconscious mind is basically working 24/7 right? So why is it that when we aren’t aware of the thought process, we attribute it to randomness instead of congratulating our subconscious on some pretty spectacular mental gymnastics?

Sometimes I do wonder if I am actually human. What if I’m like that little alien dude from Men In Black, just controlling what appears to be a human body?

It’s so funny…. When I was younger, I hated being alone. Now, I treasure my solitude, and get cranky and anxious if it is limited by circumstance.

I’m not sure when patience stopped being a common thing, but I get super irritated when people lack patience, especially in certain situations. I mean, seriously, if it’s a matter of waiting an extra 10 seconds for something? Take a sip of coffee. 10 minutes? Run to the bathroom or check your phone. It’s generally not really that urgent. In most cases, it’s not at all the life or death scenario that some people make it out to be.
Now, I’m not saying not to get a bit testy if you’ve been waiting for an hour and then get told you have to wait longer. Or if the wait time is completely out of line for what you’re waiting for. That’s different. I’m talking first level lack of patience when something isn’t immediate. (I will say, however, that your feeling impatient or somehow slighted because you’ve had to wait is never an acceptable reason to be rude.)
I understand that we now live in a fast paced, highly digital world where things are often done/achieved/obtained faster than they ever have been, and at times, that can be wonderful. But, I’m also going to say that perhaps the quality of what we are getting oh so expeditiously is not nearly what it would be if we simply had some patience.
Something to think about.

Have I failed at life because I never had kids and did not do my part to propagate the species?

Wind is just a natural way of keeping balance in a particular system.

Humans are the only species that create non-organic trash.

Why aren’t testicles internal?
All the other vital life structures – heart, lungs, brain, and for direct comparison, uterus – are all within the body. Mother nature just randomly decided, “yeah, the body part responsible for generating the second half of mammalian propagation is gonna be exposed and overly sensitive. Great idea!”? I don’t get it.

Sneezing is weird, sneezing fits even more so. “Let me expel things from my body at crazy speeds in rapid succession, but I’m going to turn into a sniffling stuffy mess after the fact.” Seriously?

Sometimes, I wish I was ok with not knowing. I imagine ignorance truly is bliss.
