I'll have to Think about it.

I am amazed by people whom are what I call "deep thinkers" or maybe a better description would be philosophical individuals.
I have decided that I am a lazy thinker.
I live in a world where I want answers. Its either black or white, yes or no, wrong or right. Of course I know life is not like this, as a matter of fact it is rarely black or white, more 99% a mass of colors with many circumstances to consider.
Anyways, I listen to the thoughts of others.
Why do I not process thoughts like they do. My brain seems to stop and say thats enough. I have all the information I need to make a decision.

Diving into the deep philosophy world tires me out... Does life have to be that complicated? Do we need to beat the issue, the topic to death? Whats with all the metaphors and riddles?
42 What?...Can you people please get to the point!

Sorry, that was out loud.

This is my brain giving out on me. You see, I manage to push myself physically the extra mile...one more lap, two more pushups, just another rep... but I do not apply this to the old grey matter.

The question is do I need to? Should I start trying to?
If physical activity keeps the body young should not mental activity do the same for the brain?

I have always had enough common sense to get by on but I find myself becoming more opened minded as I age(mature), I am more apt to listen to the "blah blah blah" of my philosophical company where I used to shut them down with a point blank rebuttal ...or maybe I am just getting soft.

I don't know, I guess I'll just have to think about it.
