take a step back and have a quick peek at my brain. two distinct hemispheres. i forget to think about it like that sometimes. one side with the logic and one with the intuition. i like to think of them as individuals, but they are the part of the same whole.

when you cut the corpus collosum (don’t care if it’s spelled right, the linkage between the two hemispheres), people develop two distinct personalities. brain science is some crazy stuff. if there’s no linkage between the two halves of my brain, i am no longer the same person, the one that takes information and processes it with both logic and intuition. i become two separate extremes of myself, and i can only imagine the destruction that could be wrought without one side giving the other some perspective. thank god in my mental landscape, i have the ability to do that.

sometimes i corner myself into thinking that it’s a question of it being fortunate or unfortunate that i have the capacity to get all existential on myself. but that’s really not a question, it’s more of a statement. the obvious answer is: it doesn’t matter. i have the capacity to do it, so i have no choice but to either deny it or embrace it. denial is not the path for the living, it is for the dead. i choose life. as black and white as that sounds, sometimes, a line has to be drawn.

your move, self.
