There's always Hope...

Friday July 18, 2008

I'm definately crazy...

Back to Full Blog

I’m actually a University student. I want to be a psychologist. But lately I’ve been thinking of the responsibility being a therapist would bring. I mean – who in this world is actually sane anyway? When I think about it, I know a lot of lovely people who are really… actually… really lovely people – but sane? Hmm…

I’m not sane. I’m a human being. Humans aren’t sane – never met one. Maybe I live a sheltered life, yeah, but I’ve never met anyone who has their life totally together. How is a crazy person like me supposed to give therapy to other crazy people (remembering that we’re all crazy in our own individual way)?

Perhaps I should be studying politics…?

I don't know if this is right or not, but I am laughing!! Of course, this may be irony as I am a therapist! Maybe I need therapy!!!

take care, Rosie

Rosie - since there is not one of us really sane we at least have to have some who are willing to share their lives and thoughts with others so they may have a better chance towards that ideal. Politics - yuck - that is pure craziness and insanity and I think it vreeds it even more. Blessings - June		\|< << >> >\|

Ron, it is laughable - that's the thing. But another blogger helped me to see the difference or the sameness i guess. No one can know everything - but it doesn't hurt to be there for others none the less. I remember you saying that you're a therapist and so I was aware that you would understand my post. You're on the other side of the same journey i'm beginning just now, and the fact that you laughed, helps me to know it's ok. Thank you for that Ron...		\|< << >> >\|

Rosie, When I worked with the homeless fulltime (now I ocassionally volunteer or aid indirectely), I met a lot of people who when I walked way I said to myself - 'now who is crazy - him or the ret of the world?' so as you noted insanity and sanity live very close to each other and sometimes in the same house!		\|< << >> >\|

Hello Rosie. I think doing insane things and being insane are different matters; that the insane person is wholly, or at least largely, of unsound mind rather than merely one who occasionally does insane or unsound things - which is all the rest of us. All politicians, by the way, are crazy. It helps.		\|< << >> >\|

Better to be insane than a jaded politician! That's my two cents anyway! But then, I decided not to go into the psych field because I have this rose-tinted view of people that I didn't want completely runined by seeing serious unhappy problems every day, and pretty much the same for politics, didn't want my career to currupt me. But now I'm doing something entirely meaninless to me, and that's just as bad as the idea of being spoiled by something meaningful--if not worse!?... /sigh. Regardless, I as always, wish you good luck on all your paths--and that you may continue to find happiness and renewal no matter where your career may lead you, or you lead it. =) star		\|< << >> >\|

Well Hello ROSIE!, As the very first person(crazy or not) to pay me a visit here I will always remember you. Yes, we are ALL crazy, that is the what makes one normal and of the norm. Normal-usual;natural...Norm; standerd or pattern for a group. You see why being crazy makes is a sure sign you are normal. Who we have to watch out for are the highy rare abnormal.. sane ones! Like me.........peace, love, curb carbon and carry a condom. Joram		\|< << >> >\|

Sanity and insanity in the one house - gosh Ron! We married each other!		\|< << >> >\|

Yeah - that's why i though i'd fit into politics really well John. I just came from another blog where he used the latest batman movie as an example. So which one is the insane one... the joker or batman? I'm truely hoping that you are enjoying your summer. We had a frost this morning. Not quite as ice covered land as you might get during your winter but pretty chilly for me. Smiling at you...		\|< << >> >\|

Star? Corupt or inform your innocence? There is a difference but i, like you, do also don my rose coloured glasses. I'm 46. There's never a time in life when we can't make changes. I'm studying a very little at a time for now. Think about what you want and put in a request to your heart. It may take time to begin, but abundant apple trees that feed entire families begin as one little seed. It all takes time. Chin up...		\|< << >> >\|

G'day my normally abnormal condom carrying friend! I've heard it said the the only ones that are actually lost in craziness are the ones that declare that they're the only ones that are sane. Well i know i'm not sane so perhaps that makes me OK. Cheers mate. By the way - the condom carrying thing? That's a great idea for all women!		\|< << >> >\|
