The sane only appear sane to other sane people. Where as the sane appear as insane to the insane. It seems that the insane look sane to others that are insane. Strength is often measured in two ways: 1). Capacitance as in all at once... Or 2). Endurance as in over time. A power lifter has extreme power in lifting a heavy load, but often not the stamina to run a marathon. Where as a marathon runner can run 5-10 miles easily but cant lift nowhere near the load that a power lifter can. These are two different types of strengths. One works just fine for some applications, and other works better in other types of cases. Life can often lead you to situations where you might be equipped with the right type of strength for the right situation. The strongest man in the world, is not the fastest man in the world. The fastest man in the world is not the strongest man in the world. To prepare for both is to be half assed at both. Wisdom grants you the knowledge of knowing what your strengths are, and what your weaknesses are. They say that time heals all wounds. Thats true in some cases. Not all. I beg to differ for In many cases? Time...destroys. Water doesnt seem to do much when you splash it on a rock. However over time? Thats what created the Grand Canyon. Any normal tree or plant usually withers and dies over time without water or sunlight. Decomposition works best over time. Coroners can usually determine an approximate time of death of a human body by studying the presence and age of the maggots infesting the body to aid in its decomposition. The difference between sane and insane often is time. Insanity allows a person to do something that a sane person just will not do. In extreme circumstances... Sane people have done some insane things to survive. From cannibalism to drinking their own urine. Ever notice though how the insane very often do evil things that they believe are beneficial to themselves at the expense of others? As if they arent capable of just random or consistent acts of kindness, they are always doing some foul, diabolical blatantly disrespectful shit. Where as most sane people are capable of doing some wonderfully unselfish acts. So when we find our lives entangled with people that defy our logic by doing the most insane things.....yes its normal to question our own sanity...even though were not the ones doing the foul insane acts. After all what we allow is what will continue. Thats the blinding definition of what forgiveness has meant for me till date. What we allow...is what will continue. Insanity is...when we keep doing the very same things while yet expecting different results. Sometimes the difference between being sane and insane is time.
