Hello All,
Wow. So once upon today my mind was blown by a newish musical instrument. This musical instrument, the theremin, does not require any form of touch and is played using electronic waves. It is crazy weird. I've seen videos of people playing it. I've read various descriptions of it, and yet I am still struggling to believe that it exists. You should definitely check it out.
So moving on... this week has been intellectually stimulating. I like that.
I think that I've learned quite a bit about perspective. I've always been one of those people that thought that we (meaning humanity) were all inherently similar and that there were certain things that were true to everyone. Now I still believe that this is true, but I've come to realize that we aren't as inherently similar as I had anticipated. There were some things, that I thought everyone contained, that they don't. Every person has their own individual perspective on life. It was odd to me. Every time I had looked at humanity, I had always focused on their similarities rather than their differences. For the first time, I was actually looking at these differences. It makes me feel more well rounded. I read a book that used ameras as a symbol for perspective. I really liked that analogy, in all of the different facets that they used.
I've been doing a lot of reading lately. It's been making me feel realy happy. It's been a long time since I've been able to read consistently. I've decided to make it a priority. It really helps to grant me perspective, and is also an excellent destressor.
Sorry for the Crazy mess of this entry. I wrote part of it today, and part of it two weeks ago, but can't be bothered to change anything. ^_^
