Random thoughts at 12:30AM

I just got off the phone with a friend of mine and I'm not sure what to think or really what to write about. My original intention was to type a "Scrubs-esque" monologue about taking shortcuts, but due to my conversation, I just wasn't in the mood. I don't really know how to feel or what to write. I mean at this point I'm not even sure I should publish this. To be candid I feel quite confused about the way my night has seemed to progress. Well fuck it... Here is what was supposed to be "A Scrubs Moment of Clarity". It's probably not that great but hey, even Babe Ruth struck out more often than he hit home runs. Enjoy...

A Moment of Clarity

At the end of the day a lot of us take the easy way out. Be it, taking a short cut home from work or cutting corners while at work. We all find ways of making our lives that much more simple. Its what makes humans the force that we are; we couldn't run at the pace of our prey, we invented spears and arrows. We couldn't travel far distances fast enough, we domesticated horses and later invented boats and cars and airplanes. We as a race are known for our ingenuity it is an innate ability for us to create tools and use them to aid us in our daily tasks.

But what happens when the corners you cut, the "tools" you use don't seem to make life any easier? Sometimes easier isn't really the best way to go about it... To lie is easier in the short term while telling the truth makes it easier to live with yourself. Then again there have been times when I have told the truth to no avail, and the girl to whom I was speaking the truth still decided to want nothing further to do with me. Life is just a funny fucking thing. You do what you think is right and in all reality you have a 50-50 chance of it working out. It's truly an anomaly that I don't think anyone will ever figure out.

Why are we here? Well I think the answer to that question is simple. If we weren't here where else would we be.
