Just Because I Do, Doesn't Mean You Have To, Too

Psychology is something I am more interested in than most other things. That being said I am interested by a lot of things. Recently I have become extremely interested in why I keep adding things to my list of books I want to read, but NEVER actually reading anything. I am always on my computer though. It wouldn't be impossible for me to turn it off though which I will prove to myself when school gets over with because I will start reading again because I believe in my ability to be one of those people who is always reading a different book. Even If people think that the book is no good, I still want to read it any way to find out what I think about it. Because I could care less what reviewers say. Whenever anyone tells me, "I heard that movie got really good reviews" I just tell them that I don't care because first of all, you HEARD that it got a good review and if I want to know, I'll just go watch the damn movie. Anyway. Reviews->Books->Interests->Psychology->Actual purpose of this post, which is emotion. Did you guess correctly?

It's usually along the lines of "Why don't you show emotion?" Look people. You don't understand. Quote Rene Descartes for this one: I am thinking, therefore I exist.

I'm not emotionless, heartless or not human. As a matter of fact, I am filled with emotion. I have tons of it but what else do I have? Self-control. I'm not the same person I was in 8th grade. If their is something I genuinely don't want to show about myself or tell you, I straight-up (guess) will not tell you. *gasp*

I completely understand why people are afraid of what they don't understand. But you know what I have to say to all of you: Stop complaining and learn how to utilize your resources. If you can manage to dedicate some of your time to researching things like this you might have a better understanding and will stop asking me why I am so difficult to understand.

You are difficult to understand. That is an unfortuante statement that I have come to accept and sometimes tell people who are struggling to grasp the reason for their lack of a grasp.

Just because I don't respond the way people are used to, it's like their whole prior understanding of the world has been blown. Not everyone is going to react the same way that you are used to. Not everyone is you.

Now, as I'm sure you've guessed, I don't want to spend much time on this. Which is why I submitted two or three sentences to each little 'paragraph'.

Conclusion--> Most people are going to have a different emotional grasp on things than you. Deal with it.
