Title: I think too much
Post by: Troll god on October 28, 2011, 10:32:13 PM
Hey guys, I'm Gert. I'm from Tirana, Albania. I'm an atheist. And I think I'm the only Albanian in this forum, as you can read from the title I think that I think too much, sometimes I should take life more easy. Or not?  ???

There is a difference between thinking and overthinking. As long as you remain critical of your own thoughts, you should be ok.

Thank you a lot. Thinking is fine, but sometimes is better to don't exaggerate, because you risk to become paranoiac and start to believe theories of conspiracy. I hate conspiracies, more than every thing else. :(

As you said, being critical is fine. Also I think that self-criticism is the only way to stay mentally healthy in this sick world.

Depends on whether you feel your thinking gets you nowhere...

Welcome btw, I love your choice of username.  :D

Not if you enjoy thinking a lot.

Mirë se vjen, Salve e benvenuto!
It's nice to have a fellow member from the Adriatic region. I have friends here who came from Albania and the Albanian section of our annual Gusti di frontiera fair is always very popular here and the food is great.

Greetings, Troll god!  This is a good place for thinkers - relax, don't worry about thinking too much.  After all, most people barely think at all, so you're just restoring the balance a bit.  ;D

QuoteAlso, English is not my primary language, try to remember this please.

Your English is A1, you don't need to apologise for that.

Hi there! Can't wait to see more of you on the forum.

Thinking too little is the work of fundamentalists. This is a massive universe and thinking and contemplating is your right and duty in my opinion. I have been told that I think too much as well. It threatens the institution of religion when you "think". So think away because making informed decisions about how you live your life is right. Going off of faith because someone said so is pathetic. We all have powerful minds and when you don't use it to the full extent you have cheated yourself and all of humanity. This is what I think though. I'm happy to be here and to share my thoughts so thank you for your time

I talk to myself because at times it's the only intelligent conversation I get. 

I don't know, it just seemed to apply.

I look forward to learning things from you, welcome.

Better to think too much about nothing then the other way around.

QuoteWalk On Water (http://www.richardclapton.com/?page_id=676)
Walk on the water
You can reach the dry land,
Walk on the water
And hold it in your hands;
I've been taking photographs today,
I must have photographed a hundred waves,
And everytime the shutter clicked,
It locked the picture right away;
Sometimes I know I think too much,
I think so much, I just lose touch,
With whatever's going down today;
But I have seen so many of you,
Walking on the water,
And I know where it is I want to be -
Walking out there with you on the sea.
Walk on the water
You can reach the dry land,
Walk on the water
And hold it in your hands.

That song has what some would a call a mopey tone to it but I like it, but then I like Eeyore at least as much as Tigger.
The author is an atheist, those walking on water are possibly surfers.

Welcome Troll god

I think too much also. In fact, I think this is an older thread from November. If the OP is still around though, welcome anyhow!
