I have a head with a million thoughts
How am I going to fill them?
I want some things that are true
And some things that definitely are not
I choose to believe them anyway
Because otherwise I only believe things that are true
Which is extremely limited
If you only believe things that are true
You don’t realize how limited you are
There would never be progress
The line you already know
Being conscious should feel something like this. You know all your thoughts. With everything you see, every new thought, you know why you think it—because of something you saw on TV, a memory of a smell from when you were a baby. You know which thoughts are connected. If you think A, the follow-up thought is always B.
And you know there is always a lot you don’t know. You understand there is always a new part, a creative part—thoughts don’t work linearly from A to B without something new. You know all your feelings; thoughts connect to feelings, and then you understand that only this is the part you know.
The interesting part is that it feels like you walk through a wonderland all day long. Thinking becomes an art form in itself.
