On being overwhelmed

When all you have is time, and unlimited resources you can be at a loss as to how to go about things. For years, a little more than a decade i spent most of this time on sites like this, and much of it is good, nothing compares to a little actual communication with others.

For me i stumble towards a time management program that works uniquely for me, it involves dynamically using all the resources in a Mahlerian fashion.

People are important, and i want to be as involved as i can be without being what others would term actual involvement. I want to maybe say things that could provide someone with a needed perceptual refreshment, but more than that is simply being there. Being reliable etcetera.

What the passionate involvement according to the parameters of solitude is is learning.

Learning in the past was taken for granted, learning was a chore, learning was placed on the bottom.

Back then however i enjoyed social science, that was what we called History, Canadians always have less iconic terminologies.

Learning never ends and is to be embraced.

Now i look at all the resources, and a daze comes over me, but i just follow the guts and go with what i land on. Right now The Atlas by Vollmann. Vollmann is a guy you read to experience what the world and other people is like, from a reading standpoint. And that is a great reason to be reading anything at all. I cannot fathom the torture educational systems put students in for forcing certain books on them. All the best lovers of literature i've seen online had had to recuperate from that scarring experience. Reading to me must be for pleasure, and i've expanded my pleasure realms as wide as can be, i even find pleasure in a little bit of dry abstract philosophy once in awhile, it's like building muscle.

From indirection, find direction out - i used that quote before, but it bears repeating, Anais Nin there crystallizes an intuitive approach to learning, a poetic way, it's like you're using another sense organ that isn't scientifically validated yet. It's just there, and you go with it, like dancing to the music, living to the beat of your own drummer.

There is so much to be exicted about, and what does this oversaturation do a lot of the time? It makes us not do anything. Resist that natural reaction, make little efforts, this can apply to other things too, do a little, change your position, see things differently, feel things effecting you like an inebriating substance.
