Conclusions...

"You've been livin life it's a sequel and you're already bored with the plot..."

Conclusions are pretty nifty things when all the information is available.  They help you move forward and bring comfort when everything seems scattered but how do you come to them?  How do you reach the absolute thought process that gives you the moral license to act?

Do you trust in your misplaced anger?  No, because that will taint your perception of motive.  Do you trust your imagined misconceptions?  No, because that will taint the criteria used to judge what will be considered evidence allowed to make your case.  Some will say that they have a unique perspective and others will assume they have all the information needed when in both cases...they fall short.  Unless everything is concrete a conclusion is always at best a hypothesis and nothing to really base a heartfelt decision on.  Yet lest we obsess over this question let's examine the need for such a discussion.  Some decisions are way more important than others and some questions that precipitate a need for a decision are nothing more than a passing curiosity held on for too long.  So what the fuck am I really saying here?  I try to do my very best not to take too much time with questions that drive me crazy because the truth is, we could all be full of shit in what we're obsessing about anyway lol  On top of all that, at some point you begin to encounter diminishing returns. In other words, they get in the way of life.  A wise man used to tell me many times "Moise, you either shit or get off the pot...".  You takin a shit readin the paper?  Finish your paper then get up and find out if the corn you ate last night made it's way through.  Don't sacrifice the sports section for worry...

At this point, I have no answers to unknown questions but what inquisitiveness cannot help, time and patience always provides.  I will wait as long as I need to.  While I wait...I'll continue living and doing my best to put a smile on someone's face that may need it...
