the journey can be worth more than the destination but maybe seeing what it’s worth first isn’t worth it if you’re already patient I’m already where I’ve been, and I will be where I’m going so will what is on that path effect me if I did or didn’t know it? phone numbers are more memorable when you group them into bigger parts 5 numbers, then 3, then 3, or 4, then 4, then 3, which to me is just bizarre you could say that the phone number itself is already the bigger part it’s only the perspective that sets the two apart some say the only things we feel and from which all emotion is derived from is: Love and Fear also told as fight or flight and I wonder if there’s anyone who’s seen them both for what they are, and lives the two together what would that be like? Others say the only things we really feel are serotonin and dopamine and plenty of people love those together maybe that’s why when people do go crazy they say: “he doesn’t know if he’s coming or going” when I first wore a pair of glasses at age 11 I realised that I had been missing out on all of the intricacies of any object further than 20 feet away it still feels like cheating being able to see things from beyond a certain point when everything is unfocused, little things are left out so if I really want to know, I have to get closer to see and then when I leave it will return to it’s elaborate ways the sum of its parts not really changing, just identified by a different name http://www.samnicholasharrison.tumblr.com
