Le Penseur
Rodin's The thinker... overthinker...
I’ve always been fascinated with this statue. A person forever transfixed in the tiresome process of thinking. I relate to this poor soul - forever more forced to think; I often find myself overthinking even the simplest of issues; I would say it is my greatest strength and weakness. Weakness because it is tiresome, because I overthink things which need no thought, because I hesitate when I should act, because I act when I shouldn't (from frustration of hesitating).... Strength because it gives me academic success in analyzing subjects and questions to death... because then i observe things in my surrounding others fail to notice… and from these observations understand the latent forces working between all of us which others take no notice of.
But if you were to ask me which I would rather be... an overthinker/underthinker? I'd take underthinker... life would be much simpler...
Hopes and dreams however are harder to actualize than putting them into words... so for now I’m doomed to remain a figure transfixed in thought of matters irrelevant, inconsequential, petty, and insignificant.
Consolations however I have a few. And it's a trade I would make a thousand times over.
