good enough

~fallenriver

it's very hard for me to find when something is good enough. sometimes, this is a nice thing: I'll endlessly check my work to find any error I can. however, there is also the fact that I have to deal with endlessly checking everything I do. I never stop thinking. my brain has become numb to the constant chatter inside it at this point. there's always a discussion. always a war. always a bar fight, and always the silent back and forth. an infinite tug of war that no one can quite win. there's always stuff left from before.

I think this is one of those reasons I write. it makes thinking easy. it's fun, sure, but at the end I just want to think something through. journalistic writings are easier in this regard. there's a set goal. some-thing to talk about. creative writings however, can get increasingly vague. if I don't have a particular point to get across, I end up just writing whatever comes to mind. usually that's enough to calm me down. it saturates me enough to keep going on about my day. it's "good enough." that's what I'm trying to get at. if I can live my life in the way I can sometimes say "it's good enough," I'll be much happier by calmness alone. a life of just, thinking, is very demanding. enjoying little moments, or just moments alone, becomes agonizing. eh, sometimes it is like that. it will have to do. it's good enough.

I'll have some rest for now, it was a very long week. good luck out there mate.
