the mind is truly a scary thing
online it creates scenarios..and assumptions
without the veracity of real life..
assumed reasons why someone does not answer an email
is there someone else
is he.she found someone new..
was this all "a game to him..to her"
how come she does not respond..he does not write to me
let me send her/him 10 more emails..
in real life..we would look at that as obsessive compulsive behaviour
dysfunctionality..if the instrument of choice was a phone..nothing like leavng 10 calls in a row
to cement the emotional intimacy...lol
the mind indeed is a scary thing
assumptions when taled out are just that
asumptions without the data of someone's real offline life
business calls
child obligations
health issues...
real life..chores..laundry..grocery shopping
all that non sexy stuff..that makes one's life..one's life...
weariness of the inherent falsehood of the net..and the need for a break...
all things said...can be eliminated with a simple Control-Alt-Delete...
where are those buttons in my real life..how easy life would be..
to edit and delete life..words spoken..glances exchanged....promises broken..hushed whispers..
in life..you create your own experience..on the web you create your glamorized experience..
in life as one the web..there is no final reality only perceptions
takes a pretty self aware soul..to identify the filters the drive your online and offline behaviour
in the end..life rewards action...not online promises..make careful decisions and then act..
life is managed..not cured by going online...learn to take charge of your real life..the story that is your real life..not the one you are constantly writing in your own revisionist text online.. on 4am..
