Sanity Is For Squares!

It's true, sanity is for squares. I discovered this recently. Of course, I do value my sanity and the sanity of those around me, it's just a bit exhausting sometimes. However, I know for sure that I'm sane. It's my theory that if you are capable of questioning your sanity, then you are in fact sane. I think my neighbors could and would argue the question of my sanity. Have you ever questioned your sanity? I do it almost everyday...Well, not really. I mean I do, I just question the meaning and validity of sanity itself more than the circumstances of my own sanity. What does it mean to be sane...or even normal for that matter? Hold on just one sec...I gotta get out the dictionary......

Okay, here it is. According to Webster's New Dictionary sanity is "the state of being sane." Oh great, that's a big help. Okay, what is sane?...Hold on just one more second........The dictionary says that sane is an adjective describing people who have "a healthy, sound mind; showing good judgement." That's a little better. But is having a healthy mind sanity? There are people with brain tumors who are sane so that's not it. Is being capable of making good judgement the basis of determining sanity? Because if it is, I know a few people that need to be shipped to the looney bin and be put in a staight jacket right away.

I guess that the question of sanity rests solely upon the people who have sat through so many tedious, boring psychology lectures until their own sanity hung in the balance and still managed to stay out of a mental institution before they graduated with a degree in psychology. So, let me review, the experts we pay to help us determine the full extent of our sanity and help us to regain it are the very people who are being overpaid, underworked, and have sat through several years of boring lectures......DOES THIS SCARE ANYONE BESIDES ME?!!!!!!!

Oh well, I'm just going on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on........If you can't guess, I just got out of another TAKS test today and I need an outlet for my energy and rage. I don't mean to go off on the psychologists like that, I just have some steam to blow off. Anyway, I gotta go write more on my story or my Katie-chan will be forced to inflict pain upon me. She's just that way...of course, I'm kinda the same when she does that to me too. Anyway, if anyone has a comment on the question or definition of sanity, I am quite willing to discuss it with you through my blog and maybe start a debate . Gotta go, Chao tam biet.

P.S. - Happy Birthday Dad!!!!!
