i don& #39;t understand people who experience guilt often for no logical reason. guilt has only the tiniest place in my life. it& #39;s a single mustard seed—just big enough to keep me from being a raging a-hole. nothing more, nothing less.
it& #39;s strange and fascinating to hear other people talk about their experiences with guilt. i never get it. like why would you feel guilty for that?
the average person and i also have different standards with which to measure meanness. i think that has something to do with it.
almost everything i take into consideration is measured by dichotomies of logical/illogical, reasonable/unreasonable, possible/impossible and probable/improbable. of course, my thinking isn& #39;t THAT black and white, but those are my general standards.
sometimes something is illogical but reasonable. those things usually involve emotions, and the point at which an emotion/stance becomes unreasonable is typically when it& #39;s disproportionate to the situation and/or it impedes a good solution/infringes on someone else& #39;s rights.
i& #39;m still speaking generally, of course, but yeah. this is how my brain works.
