What makes us do the things we do? Is it impulse, necessity, feeling or just pure out what we think on a daily basis. I know some things are just pure instinct, like defense, or the basic needs like eating and sleeping. Other things though boggle the mind, why do we laugh, why do we cry. There is no answer to these questions but I have a pretty good idea why we do some things.....we feel trapped. That's right, trapped. Completely isolated in our own mind with no place to go, just rolling things over in our minds until we feel we need to do them. You ever just get the need to do something, with no reason at all, but you felt you had to do it. Like something inside of you just pushed and pushed, until you had no choice but to let it all out. Not to wander( even though I always do), I have always been facinated with the idea that people are more comfortable spilling there guts out to a complete stranger than they are to talking to a close friend. This is a person you don't know, and you are baring your most intimate ideas out on them. It may be the idea that this person in turn doesn't know you, so there is no risk involved. It is odd though, you feel comfortable sharing your secrets with someone you don't know, and feel uncomfortable sharing it with your closest friends. People are very strange in many ways like that though, how certain things make you react and others leave no impact on you.....when they should. On the news you hear that 5 people died in a car crash, and you feel no remorse. You see somewhere else a cat has been run over by a car and it hits you harder.......you feel more remorse for the cat than for the people. It's so strange, but some things just register with people and happen to hit them when there defenses are down. Even if you are the harshest person on earth, no one is invincible from the things we see and hear. No one is a brick wall, eventually everyone cracks for some reason or another. I remember one time that was so stupid, but it hit me somehow. I was watching a movie and it was watching some stupid movie that sucked, but one scene where this guys friend dies and he just loses it.......it got to me. I still to this day have no idea why it hit me like it did, but it did. I think the whole idea of loss just got to me, wondering about if that could happen to me. I don't know. We are all just really suceptible to certain things, and that makes us human. I sometimes forget that we are all in fact just human.Maybe I should remember it more often.
