I saw The Good Shepherd last night and was pondering an intriguing piece of dialogue that went something like .. (ACTUALLY IMDB HAS THE EXACT QUOTE (actually not exact, but close enough in memory) and I love it:ABSTRUSE said:Unlike my rambling thread the pondering one is a place to come to when you are pondering something and want to share. I ponder a lot, over many things. Winnie the Pooh is my pondering muse. I especially enjoyed him in "The Tao of Pooh", one of my fav books....which unfortuately I can't find right now.
Think of this as a mini-blog spot.
Share a thought.
No replies are needed.
Just some Pondering.
Abs in repose.

Anyhow, I was pondering that quote. Great piece of dialogue. )

It's been here for months - I was just wondering who might see it and how long it would take after I blatently pointed it out 2 months ago ... LOL.ABSTRUSE said:how can we look without seeing?
You know that caught my attention.
Cool.
Answer to your specific question? Well, one could read Oedipus Rex to find out how.

Im pondering the belief (i wont say fact...) that not only are we students FOR life, but OF life. I especially feel that as i look around and see what other's do around me and what they know that i dont and realise i have a lot to learn.
I've always disputed the whole my age thing as i feel certain areas of my life reflect more responsibility than my age would generally allow (if that makes sense). Well with that i guess i feel i need the 'grown up' mental capacity too. Maybe i should anyway at my age- you know, have a lot tucked away in my head, but the truth is i dont. I find it difficult to learn and i don't pick extraneous knowledge up very easily.
Maybe i'm too young, or 'i'm still learning' but i am pondering that i am a student of life above all else.
i dont even know if any of that made sense- this is how unsure of myself i am.
*sigh*

Feeling get's me into trouble.feeeriek said:
Well, not really trouble, but it does get me into some unfavourable situations, at times.

There are only a few dreams I have that will make an impact on me that makes me think they're significant. Usually they have a completely different flavor than other dreams.
The dream where I knew I'd end up with the man I'm with now was one. They're rare.
I do try to let my awake thoughts have more influence than my asleep thoughts, but sometimes asleep just makes it more apparent in clearer symbols.

All my dreams are nightmares. I wonder what that means?

I have that also. That means, for me, that I have to essentially drug myself to get some sleep, every night. Otherwise I just get stuck in a layer of pain that makes me never want to sleep again. Insomnia and insanity lie that way.
I think it's from my experiences with migraine headaches. There's just a lot of pain experience in my brain to access, so I imagine that's why it dominates the landscape in symbols.
