Stop. Think. Not.

People have problems. It's normal for people to have problems. What people do about them depends and responses can range from the mildest of ignorance to the most enraged of commotions.

For so long, I've had this image of myself as someone who can give someone a run for his/her money in a fight. I've had thoughts of running someone over, pulling someone's hair, getting a good punch in (yes, I really am not the most non-violent person around... beware of leaving your kids with me), among many others, but I've never gotten around to fulfilling these innermost desires of mine. Blame it perhaps on social desirability, or my incessant need to be in good terms with people. Maybe it could also be because I dislike confrontation. Yes, I can be confrontational, but I don't like being confrontational ALL THE TIME (especially about things that really don't matter).

I say that I rank my problems based on intensity, urgency, and people involved. In general, there are certain people with whom I cannot have prolonged bouts with. Intensity can also determine whether or not I want to confront already or not. I know I can be one of the most patient persons ever, but there is a limit to everything.

There are acute problems, chronic problems, problems that you just want to do without, problems you cannot believe you have, problems that were given to you by another, problems that look easy but are really not, and problems about problems being problems. GEEZ.

The world is simple. We just make it complicated for ourselves.

Stop thinking already.
