“It’s okay to be egocentric so long as you remember both hemispheres.”

I can't remember where I heard that, but it popped into my head today.

I was thinking about how hypocritical I can be. I'm so consumed with learning about multiple angles of an emotion, story or whathaveyou, that I can never make a decision on how I feel.

Why? Why make a concrete decision? Why not come to the conclusion that you can indeed be the polar opposite of yourself? Why not like red and blue, be both a republican and a democrat, like fast food AND eating healthy? Why is it so important to be on one side or the other? I'm done with being a hypocrit, and from now on, I'm going to pull things I like together and meld them into what fits ME the best.

I like getting greasy while working on cars AND putting on makeup and doing my hair. I ride motorcycles, and have a disgusting amount of shoes. How about when I buy magazines, and purchase both Cosmo AND Hot Rod? I do go hunting, but I'm also an animal rights activist. How can that be?? Who cares. Can't I be smart and a moron at the same time? Wax intellectual one minute, and make a fart joke the next.

I've decided to do something a bit different, and stop making decisions. I'm going to just be myself and if that means being a hypocrit, then so be it.

I'm going to listen to mambo music, then turn up the metal.
