... so I guess I'll have to blog about my thoughts and my feelings so that people can get to know how smart I am, and then I can decide if it's self-centered.
Truthfully, I'm pretty sure that no one in their right mind would ever want to delve into the inner recesses of the "no-emotion-zone" I call my thoughts. It's a little ridiculous to think that someone would sit down at their computer, with the world at their fingertips, and decide to listen to me ramble about the vice presidential debate held last night. (Incidentally, Sara Palin looked hot and I now want Joe Biden to be my own personal Alfred the butler.)
On the other hand, I love to sit in front of the TV and watch some talking head spout the same crap every hour on the hour. Maybe I have just as much to offer. Maybe there is gold buried deep with the bowels of my mind and I just have to wade through the waters of indifference to find it.
The waters of indifference... To be honest, one of my guiding principles has been the belief that you really can't make a difference in the world. Now, I know that flies in the face of all the idealists out there who spout their "change the world" mantra, but I'm a realist. In the course of history, a miniscule percentage of people have actually made that kind of mark, though we have no shortage of those who try. Why? Because there's only room for so many world-changers. The world can only handle leadership from a few at any given time, so what are the rest of us non-political, un-famous nobodies supposed to do?
The answer? ... well you'll just have to wait until my next post (which, if I'm being honest, may never come.)
