Affirmation for April 12, 2011: Your Unique Perspective

When life itself seems lunatic, who knows where madness lies? Perhaps to be too practical may be madness. To surrender dreams, this may be madness. To seek treasures where there is only trash... Too much sanity may be madness, and maddest of all is to see life as it is and not as it should be.
- Miguel De Cervantes
Thought of the day:
Have you ever thought you were going mad? Perhaps you think about the world in a different way from everyone else, and feel isolated because of that. If so, today's quote is dedicated to you. Take advantage of your unique perspective on life-- you may just be seeing the potential, where others are bound by self-imposed limits.
Have an insane day!

I think the question is not \"if you think of the world in a different way, but rather \"why\". Why are you thinking about the world in a different way and is that way beneficial or positive. The ability to self impose limits can actually be a good thing, since it is an act of self government and therefore empowering. But as De Cervantes points out, too many limits may be madness. But limits do help us know where the madness lies. Understanding the boundaries we create and why we create is important to having a sense of self and a sense of your sanity!

Perhaps there are no boundaries, and it\'s only what the mechanism of those boundaries \"do\" to the being, than the linear process of calling it a boundary.
And what if there is no linear? What is particular about asking the question. It is in processing being in it\'s entirety that we may find self, or be contained within it.
