Nice to know ya'

"Well, the thing is, I don't write, like, twenty page articles or something like that...I just write to write...and yea, I think that I do it everyday in little bits and pieces that eventually will add up to something, well that I hope will add up to something. Something that I just do not realize at the moment...."

Did you ever have one of those moments when you thought you had found something (either read or saw or experienced) that you thought was so profound you just had to share it with all the world. You could not believe what you had found, for it was so amazing. It was so wonderful. This must be the truth, this might be the right, this must be the answer. And then there is that sort of calm and relaxation, that rest like you have finally found some sort of answer.

And there will always be those people who you tell that think you are absolutely insane, that think you are crazy...but you don't mind because you believe that you have unlocked some sort of secret to the world.

And then there is that moment that happens some time after the epiphany. The moment when you realize that you really did go absolutely insane. Even though you hate to admit that the masses were right, they just were.

What you were feeling was only temporary. It could not last, just could not. Whatever you thought was the 'answer' was so far from it is inconceivable. And you just do not know what happened to you to make you go so blind.

But that certainly does not mean that you are a part of some homogeneous herd. It was just with this one instance. And you in no way regret the spell you fell under. It was certainly fun while it lasted, yet you are a little embarrassed. You just wish that you could know when you are falling under the spell of something ridiculous to avoid all of this drama. Then AGAIN it was an experience that you were glad to live. Oh, the drama.

So what exactly is the fine line between too much praise and just some sort of false hope...you are good, but you are not that good. (damn, I had some train of thought with this idea and now it is lost because I got too distracted from 'surfing' the web. :)
